Increasing your website’s SEO can be a tedious and daunting task. For many business owners this is a task that # 1 on the list of things to be delegated. For those who have budgeted for an SEO expert, hire that person as soon as you can; your website will thank you. However, when you’re working with a tight budget, you may choose to wait. Why wait? Why not work towards that goal now and best of all it’s free!

One way is to register your site with major search engines such as Google, Yahoo, etc. You may be wondering, “How do I do this?” No worries! See below for a direct link to my top four search engine websites.

This is how it works

Each search engine crawls (periodically), adding and updating new websites to their index.

Here are some key things to remember:

• When prompted, use keywords that describe your website best.

• Add the full URL address i.e. http://YourDependableVA.com/

Submit Your Site to Google

http://www.google.com/addurl/
