There are two major types of Search Engines, Crawler based and Human based. The two function in vastly different ways. Crawler based (or spiders) like HotBot create their listings automatically, they crawl the web building information about a site, enabling the user to search this information. Human based rely on site submissions for their listings. Often a Hybrid of the two methods are used.

Keywords which describe your sites contents are a necessary feature of every Web page. These Keywords located in the "Meta Tag" of each document are essential to improve the likelihood of someone finding your Website. An important process is deciding which Keywords best fit your site, this is generally discussed with you during a consultation.

Unfortunately in the past Meta Tags have been misused and now some Search Engines prefer to scan the contents of the document for relevance of Meta Tags used. Therefore it is important to use Keywords associated with the content of your Website.

With every Site designed by CWD we offer free submission to the most popular Search Engines, this usually takes around four to eight weeks for processing. You may choose to pay extra to have immediate submission, this price will be obtained from the most current figures available.
