STATISTICS    UK SEARCH ENGINE SERVICE   GETTING YOU READY    SUBMISSION PROGRAMMES

There is obviously some secret in our success. However the over all summary is that you improve your positioning in search engines by Professionally META-tagging your web site.

No matter what you do with META-tags, over a relatively short period of time your positioning on the search engines will diminish as they give extra priority to new submissions. The only way to remain high on search engines results is to timely resubmit, ensuring you are not remove for over enthusiam. The more pages from your website that you submit to the search engines, the better you will do in them.

One customer gave us interesting feedback, relating our services to how the inland revenue had reviewed his account submission. Accepted and processed quickly from a Chartered Accountant or as in the past, analysed, delayed and asked lots of questions by submitting his accounts himself ?

Many companies on the Internet think that once their site is online the search engines will automatically find them. Others have been told by web designers that they will submit the site to the search engines on their behalf, or that the site will include meta tags which help search engines find sites. All these things are to a degree true, but it is much more complex than just this and to truly get amazing results out of your site and the search engines you need to speak to professionals.

What we do know is how to get you on the search engines and with a bit of hard work (and clever programming) into the all-important top ten of the search engine results pages. Imagine key word searches relating to your business coming up on the opening pages of Yahoo or Altavista, millions of "hits" should ensue and at long last the claims of your web designers could come true. Just one or two top ten entries in just one of the top search engines will drive masses of traffic and sales your web sites way.

Our service has been too sucessful for some customers, with many having too many enquiries from around the world in which they cannot service. So as part of our ongoing programme we have developed a more specialised and precise service for those who would prefer to get UK enquiries and have stronger positions on the co.uk search engines.

Throughout 2000+ we have been speciliasing in providing a guaranteed search engine promotion service specific to co.uk. engines. This service, branded under GetRecognised is now included within our portfolio of Internet marketing services.

 

The majority of all major search engines began life in the United States with a .com address. By the end of the 1990s they all had sites in this country with a .co.uk address. These portals give users the option of searching the worldwide web or UK sites only. For businesses this is crucial. Most people looking to buy a product or use a service would prefer to do so with a company based in their own country.

Statistics show that in the UK the split between .com and .co.uk usage is nearly 50-50. Indeed, with some search engines (e.g. Altavista and AOL) the co.uk site is being used more frequently than the .com parent site.

Being submitted to the .com engine is no guarantee of being listed on the .co.uk engine. This is why the cheaper US search engine submission companies and software packages miss out. With over 90% of GetRecognised customers based in the UK, GetRecognised has concentrated on providing a unique UK search engine service.

As the internet has matured the world and their cyberdog have a website, you can now almost guarantee that there will be hundreds of every single business discipline on the web.

Over the years customers have asked us about the co.uk versions of such search engines as Yahoo or Lycos.

Do submissions to the parent .com engines get you listed on the co.uk versions? Can such listings be monitored?

What ratio of people in this country use the .coms and how many use the .co.uks?

For many customers being on the co.uk versions is more important than appearing on the .com lists. Some customers do not want business from overseas at all and therefore would prefer to be only on the co.uk versions.

This exciting new service operates with an identical guarantee to our normal (.com) service. Your site is submitted to 15 UK search engines with your choice of 8 phrases. Again, you are covered by our No High Results that month- Money back Policy. You also receive monthly reports showing listings across the 15 UK search engines. We recommend that anyone using this service should also take advantage of our usual .com service since, as previously mentioned, the split in usage in this country is roughly 50-50 between the co.uk and .com search engines. For existing customers the co.uk service is effectively a way to double your audience. And if you are not a GetRecognised customer at all then what have you been waiting for!?
