To be listed highly on Google, try to get a high page rank for your site of at least 5. [The Page Rank is what determines how highly a site is indexed in Google, and it ranks from 0-10, with 10 being the highest]. You can increase Page Rank in several ways:\n\n1. Get many people to link to your site, whether in a link exchange, or by just producing content so good, people voluntarily link to it. The higher the Page Ranks of the sites linking to you, the more Page Rank your site will get and the higher it will be ranked.\n\n2. Have the most important headings on your site be in a <h1> tag. For example, if you have a page about fixing automobiles and it's titled "How to Fix Cars", then format it like this: <h1>How to Fix Cars</h1>. If the size is too big for you, you can use CSS to reduce it.\n\n3. And lastly, make sure your content and page title are keyword rich.\n\nGood luck!

Allow me to answer this question because I AM on the top #1 spot in three different categories (first names, nursery rhymes, blonde jokes).\n\nCONTENT -- \nFirst and foremost, the content you have on your site is the most important and most crucial thing over anyting else that you can do to your site. What I advise my clients to do is to actually THINK like a search engine or if that is too abstract, think like someone who speaks a different language. \n\nAlthough search engines are getting much better at figuring out exactly what it is that is on the page, remember it is often impossible for them to decipher Java, Javascript, Flash, and other non-HTML components. This is NOT to say don't use them, just use them when they are to be used appropriately.\n\nBecause search engines ARE getting better at figuring out what is on a page, spelling and grammar are also very important. The rule of thumb is no more than three misspellings and no more than three gramatical errors on a page. Sentences should be of short to medium length and paragraphs should also be rather short.\n\nDO NOT COPY OTHER PEOPLE'S WORK. The search engines can penalize a site heavily for plagiarism.\n\nTAGS\n\nTitle Tags -- The most important of all tags is the Title tag. This is what shows up on the bars on the bottom of your computer screen. Most people make the mistake of putting their company name in the Title Tag and that is the worst thing to do (other than putting no tag at all). A Title Tag should be short and to the point and tell what the page is about and if you want to add your company name then add it at the END of the title tag not at the beginning.\n\nMeta Tags -- Meta tags were how search engines would know what was on a page... many years ago. However, with that said it is important that Meta tags are still added to your site and more importantly there are new meta tags (more than just description and keywords) that should be added to the web site such as content type and content language.\n\nMeta Description -- Meta description should start out with the SAME thing your TITLE tag says and then go into more detail. \n\nMeta Keywords -- Meta keywords are words used to describe what is in your page. First use keywords that are in the title and the description first. Then use keywords that are in the content of the page. DO NOT try to spam the search engines by using keywords that are not relevant to your content.\n\nAlt Tags -- With the advent of XHTML, ALT tags for images are now REQUIRED. The Alt tag is used for people who have their images turned off so it is important to have in the alt tag exactly what the image is but also expand on what it is. An example would be a HOME button. Instead of just having HOME as the Alt Tag, use Home -- Site Name.com. \n\nI have noticed that search engines love geography and it is good to put that in there whenever appropriate. If your company is in Kansas City, MO then put those in the Content and in the Tags.\n\nLINKS\n\nHaving links that send people to sites relevant to your site is always a good practice. People ask me where I get links and how do I get people to link to my site. The answer is very simple. First I ask. I write e-mails (NOT SPAM) to sites asking if they wish to reciprocate links with me and I also have on some of my pages a "Link to this Page" button so that web site owners can do it on their own.\n\nThere is great debate as to whether links to other sites that are not of the same category help, hurt, or are indifferent. From my ten years experience I have found that appropriate links DO NOT hurt your web site and could very well help in some instances.\n\nPRIVACY POLICY\n\nI won't go into much detail here but make sure you have one. So many people forget this and it is extremely important. You will NOT find a major web page that does not have a Privacy Policy attached to it.\n\nTRAFFIC\n\nObviously the more traffic you have coming to your web site the better. Not only ar

if your site is like about cars, then you have to mention the word car at least 50 times because when your site gets spidered by search engines that will show up higher ranking.\n\nBut that doesn't always work anymore.\nTry joining  DMOZ.org and becoming an editor for the category your interested in.\n\nThat way you can see how the sites are ranked.\n\nAlso put a counter on your site that shows which search engines are sending traffic your way. Then you can concentrate on improving the searches.\n\nstef

(Don't Forget MSN!)...\n\nBefore I launch into descriptions of the sites, here's the list of the search engines worth looking at:\n\nGoogle http://www.google.com\nYahoo! http://www.yahoo.com\nMSN http://www.msn.com\nDogpile http://www.dogpile.com\nAskJeeves http://www.askjeeves.com and Teoma http://www.teoma.com\nHotBot http://www.hotbot.com\nAltavista http://www.altavista.com\nGigablast http://www.gigablast.com\nLooksmart http://www.looksmart.com\n\nYou wanted other search engines besides Google and Yahoo!, something clean and effective. Truth be told, they are both clean and effective and have an excellent index of web pages to search from.\nFrom the top:\n\n\nIn the "Big Three" you have\nGoogle http://www.google.com\nThis engine seems to be the top choice for searchers because of its clean layout, record-setting number of indexed pages, and intellegent ordering of results. Also popular about it is the way you can enter questions into it, such as math questions and movie times. You can access a list of all the cool stuff you can do in Google Search at http://www.google.com/help/features.html .\n\nYahoo! http://www.yahoo.com\nis also a popular choice for the exact same reasons. It has a slightly different but just as clean layout. It too, provides excellent results,  Yahoo! also has a large number of in-search features, listed at http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/ysearch/tips/tips-01.html. Some people don't like how the main page for Yahoo! search has other things on it. However, a perfectly clean page which has only Yahoo! search can be found at http://search.yahoo.com .\n\nMSN http://www.msn.com\nTotally revamped in the recent years, Microsoft Search is an excellent search engine with great results as well. MSN also has a "clean" search page at http://search.msn.com\n\nThen the more minor (but still useful!) engines: \n\nDogPile http://www.dogpile.com\nThis engine is not actually an engine at all- the site is a "metasearch" site, which means that it grabs results from a great number of search engine and displays them all. A good choice if you're looking for something that probably won't come up in most engines. However, it is a bad choice for general searches, because you'll end up having the same results as you would have had by asking any of the popular engines.\n\nAskJeeves http://www.askjeeves.com\nAsk Jeeves initially gained fame a while back by letting you search by asking questions and responded with what seemed to be the right answer to everything. Behind the scenes about 100 editors who monitored search logs and programmed the engine to respond with the right answer next time the question was asked. Nowadays it relies on a regular search engine, known as...\n\nTeoma http://www.teoma.com\nIt has a smaller index of the web than Google and Yahoo. However, being large doesn't make much of a difference when it comes to the more popular searches, and Teoma is known to provide relevant results for the searches. Some people also like its "Refine" feature, which offers suggested topics to explore after you do a search and the "Resources" section of results which points you to pages that specifically serve as link resources about various topics.\n\nAllTheWeb http://www.alltheweb.com\nYou mentioned clean and effective. Well, since Yahoo! bought out AllTheWeb, they've used it as a "cleaner" look for the exact same results of what you'd get with Yahoo!\n\nHotBot http://www.hotbot.com\nHotBot simply lists the results from Google, Yahoo!, and Teoma. Unlike a metasearcher, HotBot does not combine the results.\n\nGigablast http://www.gigablast.com\nThis search engine has a very small database, and not much used. The only thing worth mentioning is that it has complete reports on when a page was last indexed and modified.\n\nLycos http://www.lycos.com\nLycos is one of the oldest search engines on the internet. Nowadays, it gathers its results

◙◙ Promote Your Site ◙◙\n\n◙ You need to submit your site to many search engines. Search engines will not accept your site if it is listed on free-for-all list sites. They will not accept it if it is a newbie site that is about them only. Think of a subject and write about it. It can take 2 weeks to 6 months or more before they list you. Even if they do accept your site you'll need to check your listing occasionally to make certain it is still listed. If a site gets no traffic or isn't updated regularly they will delte your listing. If you are a serious webmaster you will need to read about site optimisation at http://www.searchengines.com/ Another great site is http://www.searchenginewatch.com/ Search engine submission tips (lots of info) http://www.searchenginewatch.com/webmasters/\n\n◙ You'll find about 400 search engines here.\n\n► http://dwight.clickthesky.com/search/\n\n◙ There are web sites that claim to submit your site to hundreds of search engines at once. The only one I recommend is http://www.dmoz.org/ The other search engines use this directory to supplement their own directories. Youdd it to google here http://www.google.com/addurl/\n\n◙ If you have a Geocities home page list it in Geocities Homepage Directory http://pages.yahoo.com/ You'll find help for that here http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/geo/gmembers/

There is a whole cottage industry to "get you to be the first in a search engine"... It is called Search Engine Optimization (SEO) or Search Engine Marketing (SEM).\n\n- Do not under any circumstances hire a company that guarantees the first position.  Such claims are certainly will get you banned from the largest and most important search engines.\n\n- PPC or pay per click programs may drive traffic to your site, but will not "raise" your site within search engine listing.\n\n- Surprisingly studies have shown that the first position is often ignored!  If you get on the top of the first page, "above the fold"( you show up without having to scroll down), you are gold!\n\nSearch engine positioning depends very much on the search engine, and what type of algorythm they use to rank web sites.\n\nThe primary factors in most engines are content and authority.  Content refers to articles and documents which are unique and specially related to the key phrase or word to which you want your site to be on top.  Authority refers to how well your site is linked - that is how many good sites within the same topic, link to you.\n\nYou might want to revisit "why" you want to be high on that search engine list...  To drive traffic? If that is the case, then concentrate on the root, which is getting more traffic to your site and not solely on position in a search engine.  Advertising in that case makes more sense.\n\nThe de facto authority on this information is WebmasterWorld.  This site provides detailed discussions on various search engines and how to promote your site.

Most the big search engines have a submit your site option and many hosting providers offer a tool to submit your site to multiple engines. In order to get a good position near the beginning requires a lot of good content emphasizing your chosen keywords and links from other sites that have similar content.

Get some high-traffic sites to link back to your site. This is the idea behind Google's page-rank algorithm I believe.\n\nYou should also do some research on SEO (Search Engine Optimization). Like a keyword in the title or <h1> might carry more weight etc.

My dear friend, search engine hits don't come overnight. It takes a lot of time for a website to feature on great seach engines like Yahoo and Google. I own a website that I created at about the end of January this year, and only last week I found it listed at number 29 only after all my keywords have been searched for at once! You have to be patient!\n\nWhen search engines build their powerful databases, they perform what is called indexing. This is done by special software called "bots". They start at the most popular sites on the net, and then follow every possible link on those pages, then all the next possible links, etc. They spider almost the whole web like this.\n\nFor those reasons, Yahoo might not know about you if you don't have a listed website that is linking to you. I would suggest you go and surf for other websites of your kind and add your page to their list of links. (Search engines also judge the popularity of your site by how many other sites are linking to you.)\n\nWhile you are waiting, there are some things you can do to make your website feature quicker. I don't know how familiar you are with HTML meta tags and the search-engine friendliness of your page, but I'll explain it anyway.\n\nMeta tags is ordinary HTML tags that you place inside your website code. They serve the primary purpose of giving information about your website. Some of them give the keywords that you would like your site to be searched for, others provide a short description of your site which will be shown on your listing if you feature on Yahoo. There are countless other meta tags which I have yet to explore, but they make your site a great deal more search-engine friendly.\n\nI have some really good software that helps me make my site more search-engine friendly. It is easy-to-use and completely virus-free (trust me). Best of all, it is free! It contains a complete explanation of meta tags, and also provides tips on selecting the right keywords for your page. It also has a feature that can check your pages for any errors or other things that would make search engines not like you. You can obtain it at http://www.webceo.com/\n\nHope my advice helped...

You need an expert linkbuilder but remember google pagerank is just one factor in getting your keywords ranked at the top of google . You need onsite optimization(optimization of the meta-tags, htags, header and title optimization and this is the easy work. You then need a professional link builder that knows certain techniques that can get u inbound links. Remember reciprocal links (your link on their page for their link on your page) is just about worthless after their last few updates. YOu need relevant inbound links on other google indexed links.\nI will email u some info on a good link builder.
