Search engine optimization is the process of ensuring that a website (pages) ranks highly in the search engines when someone searches for specific phrases related to the site.\n\nIt is divided into two parts.  Onpage optimization which includes all the things you can do to the site (page) itself, like selecting the title attribute, search engine friendly urls, keywords in text etc., etc.  Offpage optimization which includes things like obtaining inbound links with appropriate anchor text.\n\nFor a tutorial on search engine optimization you can't do better than http://www.seo-blog.com/tutorial.php

So called search engine optimizers are a farce! They are infested with adware and spyware! Avoid them at ALL costs! They are solely designed to track your every search and then redirect you to sites they are affiliated with. They then receive a commission for anything you purchased. The only thing that possibly makes them faster is the fact that they eliminate  a large portion of websites that arent affilliated with them. If you are refering to listing your site with a browser optimizer it will cost you!

A web search engine is actually a database in which talks to the web browser client through the web server.\n\nThe first search engine is www.webcrawler.com\nsee: http://www.webcrawler.com/info.wbcrwl/search/help/about.htm\n\nYou can build a database with a web server on your home computer and write your own type.\n\nTake a look at:\nhttp://www.allsearchengines.com/\n\nOnce you have built your search engine you will have to do a lot of other things such as register a domain, find a provider, get the word out there..\n\nDo some searches on the history of search engines and meta data etc.. there are many layers to doing this.\n\nHope this helps.

A search engine is normally an automated computer that "crawls" the web looking for pages. All the pages it finds are put into an index with key information taken from the title of the page, keywords, meta tags, and the copy on the page. People can then use keywords to search the index for any matches.\n\nA Directory is normally a hand built, human edited system, where people review each site individually before adding it into the correct category (or subject area). Users can either browse the directory by clicking through different categories or can search the directory for specific keywords.\n\nThe advantages of a search engine are that they are often more up to date with breaking news and new sites and have a much wider range of sites in their index.\n\nThe advantage of a Directory is that each site is normally good quality as it has been checked by a human and is less prone to being "spammed" by unscrupulous site owners trying to artificially inflate their ranking.\n\nSearch Engines:\nhttp://uk.search.yahoo.com/\n\nDirectory:\nhttp://uk.dir.yahoo.com/\nhttp://www.dmoz.com/

It depends on the search engine and it depends on the directory.\n\nA search engine will try to present you with the most relevant pages for the keywords you enter.  Unfortunately they don't always succeed.  Search engines will generally return you a greater variety of results.\n\nA good directory on the other hand won't try to return results from the entire internet.  It should instead be trying to get you the best results from the sites that it has in it.  And to get into the directory the site will normally have been reviewed by a human to make sure that it is what it says it is.\n\nSo when I'm searching if I just need any resource on a particular keyword then I'll be in a search engine.  If I'm looking for good sites in a particular category I'll probably be looking for it in a directory.\n\nThe key differences:\nSearch engines are automated and can be fooled.  Directories should be hand-edited and are hard to fool.  Search engines generally examine and return pages.  Directories look at sites.  Search engines can update within hours for new content.  Directories typically take days or months.  Search engines are usually simpler to use as you don't need to understand a directory structure.  Search engines are typically larger, directories tend to produce higher quality results, but have much reduced coverage.

update the contents regurally -search engines love sites that are updated; find people that are willing to put link on their sites to your site - the more links you have to your site the higher the se4archability ranking will be; focus on a particular segment . thats what i think

Optimize your page's content and incoming links so that they contain the keywords you are targetting. Example: if you are trying to get traffic from people searching for "Xbox tips and cheats" then try to get other (it's best if they are related to your topic) websites to link to you using variations on that text. Also make sure that your content has plenty of the words that you want searchers to find, in different styles, such as bold, headings, and lots of variations of the keywords.\n\nBe careful not to make your pages look spammy however; You want to provide quality content above all else, and that's usually what search engines love best.
