Xsitepro Business Directory Template Indexed Overnight

0 comments
Here's a followup on the new site The Best of Mchenry I set up on July 18th, 2009.

I'm working on an Xsitepro Business Directory Template and set up an example on a new domain at www.BestofMchenry.com, unfortunatly I had one of my attacks and ended up in the hospital on the 19th, 20th and 21st so today July 22, 2009 is the first time I had a chance to check out the whether or not the site was indexed.

As you can see from the screen shot Google indexed 10 of the new sites pages in 3 days. I wish I could have checked on the second day because I've been able to get new sites indexed in google within 24 hours and I suspect this has been indexed under 24 hours according to my web logs. That's pretty exciting!

I constantly read about people not getting any traffic or not being able to index their sites....Xsitepro owners included. Xsitepro has some pretty awesome tools that allow you to get your sites in the search engines quickly and I'll give you a quick run down of what I did.

First I created the site from the Xsitepro Business Directory Template and added a couple of business listings by creating some pages. Then I created an XML file for the site from within Xsitepro, this is bestofmchenry rss feed. Next I created a Google Sitemap from within Xsitepro.

I submitted the google sitemap to Google and I submitted the RSS feed to some rss directories.

The only other thing I did was to link back to www.BestOfMchenry.com from this site and from new blogger blog. That's all I did and at least 10 pages have been indexed....pretty cool huh!

Now, the next thing to do is to start submitting some articles and press releases for keywords I want my clients pages to rank for. I'll try to document my progress, I'm limited because of health reasons but hopefully I'll get a few more clients and get this local business directory ramped up!

Here's the screen shot of the pages indexed by Google.

Secure The Services of An Offline Internet Consultant For Your Small Business Expansion

0 comments
Amazingly people have given up using the yellow pages to find your business, instead people use a variety of search engines when looking for a product or service but did you realize that 85% of any given market will first check out the internet? This is a staggering statistic regarding your market and should weigh heavily when considering how to market and advertise your business. As a small or even large business owner you need to get a handle on how important it is to have your business on the internet, otherwise known as a web presence because in the near future almost all businesses will be located by internet searches. Today just about everybody is jumping on the internet, from their i-phones, laptop computers, personal computer, etc. and if you are not there for people to see... Your competition surely will be!

A person with a cell phone can easily get on the internet and search for your website, that's why it is so important to have your site optimized properly. While Google is the search engine of choice, you must be in one of the first 3 search results if you want good traffic. Best case scenario would be to have your website show up for the number 1 spot on Google!

All these things probably make no sense to you but take my word for it, you really need to put them in place. If you ignore proper internet marketing methods, you do it at your own peril.

Since you're not an offline marketing expert it's really easy to get this wrong. You want a web presence so you hire a web design firm and then think you're all done. You want a web presence so you hire a web design firm and then think you're all done. Unfortunately, most web design firms are clueless when it comes to search engine strategies and other offline marketing strategies, so they fall short of getting you listed on Google.
