What Happens Afterwards?

Once your new custom website has been completed, the next step is to get your site out there by every and any means necessary to begin generating visitor traffic to your pages. The best way, of course, is always the least expensive way. And luckily, EtherJungle.com includes, among other services, two very important value-adding extras included FREE with every website we build: search engine submission and EtherJungle.com FREE business directory inclusion.
Every year, hundreds of websites go ‘live’ without ever being ‘crawled’ by search engines. This means that the website is never catalogued for relevant listings in search engine results, and also means that the site, for all intent and purposes, is invisible. How does this happen? Many web design companies charge extra for search engine submission, including submission only as part of their website optimization packages. EtherJungle.com includes submissions as part of our custom web design services, FREE upon completion of the site. Upon the date of completion, your site will be submitted to the top search engines and queued for crawling. We also submit new sites to DMOZ, the Open Directories Project, a mass directory of websites regularly and repeated crawled by every major search engine on the Net.
Along with search engine submission, EtherJungle.com takes your site’s exposure one step further by adding your site to our growing FREE business-to-business directory, which caters exclusively to clients, Connecticut business and other organizations throughout the U.S. exclusively. Inclusion in this directory is FREE, and clients can rest assured that their listing is alongside some of the best Internet companies and service providers in the state and beyond. This inclusion in our directory ensures relevance within your particular site’s field by association with other companies providing similar services and/or products. Even without search engine submission, inclusion in the EtherJungle.com business directory provides enough website exposure to get your site into all the major search engines in time.
Covering The Bases
As exposure for your website should be your primary concern upon its completion, some things to consider are that your website URL (domain name -ex: www.yourbusiness.com) should be included in all further advertising practices, where available. The Internet is an exceedingly popular means by which potential clients and customers can learn about your business or online presence. Every possible means of exposure, whether online or in print, should be exploited to the fullest extent possible.
Internet advertising in the form of pay-per-click services and paid directory inclusion, though effective, is expensive and should be viewed as a supplemental means of advertising, second to fully exploiting the alternatives discussed here. There are plenty of free directories online that will provide inclusion at no charge. A majority of these companies do so in exchange for a reciprocal link. The key is to be selective yet extensive in your push to promote your website. The more places your link appears on the Net, the harder your site will work for you.
