****Introductory comments****
With the start of the New Year, I am reading a lot of the SEO
predictions that everyone is putting out and keeping up to date on the
SEO forums that I frequent. I have been asked how I stay up on all the
SEO goings-on, all the sites that I go to for information are listed on
the resources page of this site.
On to the question...
****Question of the month****
Question: Theresa, Since the success of keywords is a trial
and error thing, how am I going to know if the spiders can successfully
find my site unless I re-register prior to getting all my keywords
worked out? So, shouldn't I re-register my web site now instead of
later? Or maybe I'm misunderstanding how this spider thing works…Thanks,
Andrew White
Answer: Great Question. I would not recommend registering with
search engines until you have all of your keywords and keyword
site text in order. Most of the time it could take a week or more (you
can see this specific info on the search engines) for the spiders to
come out to your site but you never really know, so I would say that it
is to be better safe than sorry with the spiders and ensure you have
all your SEO endeavors in order before registering. You can usually tell
when spiders reference your site by looking at your server reports or
logs. My hosting company clearly lists when a search engine spider
comes a-calling to my site and where it is from. Right now they are
coming about once a month to crawl my site. If you don’t see this info
on your reports, ask your hosting company about including it. Thanks and
good luck!
****Wrap up****
I am looking forward to a happy and prosperous New Year – hoping that
I reach the goals that I have set for myself. So to everyone – have a
happy, prosperous and safe New Year! Thanks for reading my newsletter.

This is in searches that result in over 20,000 pages per search. We're backlogged with orders until late June, possibly July. You ROCK!” Diana Holycross, Tiles with Style."
