I've learned a little trick recently that seems to work rather well for marketing your web site. As large and as content-rich as eBay is, the spiders absolutely love it. They eat it up! With a simple auction submission, your web site and all the pages that make it up can get crawled much faster than usual. What you want to do it to create an auction, selling ad space on the web site that you are wanting spidered. List your web site and link in the Title portion and the Description should include all your lower level page links. Tell the visitors to your auction that they are bidding for advertising space on your web site. Set the lowest bid around a dollar for a couple days worth of advertising. I would set the number of items sold at 100 or more and set the auction up for the full seven day duration. Since it is a legitimate auction for advertising space, eBay will have no issue with you listing all your website links. Once your auction is submitted and live, the search engines spiders will crawl all of the links you have listed in your auction. Make sure that all the individual pages are hyperlinked. Since eBay is so large, you may see little results as far as the actual action, but that's really not the point, is it? If you do get some bids for the advertising offer, all the better; icing on the cake! I have successfully used this method for many of the web sites I have created. Here's to your success! |
