my freind likes writing what can she do to be listed in google search?

Question

how does one get their name on google?

Answer 1

I would start a blog with Blogger.com (a Google company) which will get her name on Google quickly especially if she posts interesting and fresh content regularly. It doesn't have to be much just 400 - 600 words is enough. Hopefully she will build a 'fan' base and acquire links from other sites which will boost her ranking.
Then develop a full-on website which will be linked to the blog so that it will be indexed quickly as well.
See if she can use her name as the domain name for her site - both blog and website.

Answer 2

Have her get a personal website with her name on it. Create a website with information on it, and make sure it is several pages in size. Then have a special area just for her writing. Once done, go to Google Submissions and submit the first page of the website. Google will spider it and add it to the search results.

If she has books or poems for sale, she can buy Google Ads and have her ads displayed whenever a keyword is searched for.

Answer 3

This is really how Google makes their money. Advertising is a huge market where anyone can bid on where they would like to be placed within the top searches of their Google search engine. The more you pay, the higher up you name pop's up on their search list.

The most effective way to advertise on the Internet is to first set up a website and publish its domain name on major search directories such as Google.com, Yahoo.com [at http://www.google.com/addurl/?... and MSN.com since 85% of Internet shoppers rely on these search directories to provide them with goods and services. In a sense, these search directories are a very large Internet Yellow Pages.

You may want to consider some simple algorithms which, when observed and committed in designing of a website with placement of various critical metatags that can surely achieve a high search engine presence and increase Internet traffic to your website. These metatag strategies work well with published webpages at Google and Yahoo.

Design: Should you create an extensive Flash-based website, make sure to fill-in the property entries such as the Title, Description and Keywords. Failing to do so, leaves no hard HTML or ALT resource that can be readily indexed by search robots. Also consider the Internet audience and their incoming setup. For example, if they are on analog/dialup, Flash webpages take too long to load up and therefore analog users will likely lose interest and discontinue entering the Flash site. On the other hand, anyone on hi-speed DSL lines, will welcome Flash pages which load quickly. So before designing a pure Flash websitge, ask the simple question, "Who's my end user - is he on dialup or DSL?" And if you had to choose between these two users for maximum marketability, then select analog users since 80% of most resident users are still analog Internet subscribers and pure HTML designed webpages is best for them.

A non-Flash-based website which relies on hard text, is far easier to be indexed by search robots. Limit the use of stylized text saved as .gifs since as a graphic, they are not indexable by search robots.

Avoid use of frames since any number of search robots are unable to properly classify textual material.

Placement of Metatags:

A ranking or search order does take place with Google and Yahoo and it begins with the "Title" metag which should consist of no more than 65 characters separated by commas. The "Title" should describe in generic terms, the goods and services, followed by a location from which the resource is located, i.e., city, state. The placement of a domain name which is not generic within the "Title" is not appropriate, unless your domain name is a major recognizable brand name.

The second metatag is the "Description" which is usually 25-30 words to form a complete sentence which best describes one's goods and services.

And the very last category - "Keywords" are also somewhat limited to 15-16 words which can be plural and compound in nature. Again, avoid multiple entries which could be mistaken as "spamdexed entries" which is defined as the loading, and submission of repetitive words into a particular metatag category. "Spamdexing" when discovered on a webpage and reported to Google's spamreport.com can result in the elimination of your website from their search directory.

Here's an example of a very highly-placed website on Yahoo.com: Begin with the search query "pizza downtown los angeles." It will bring up some 1.4 million+ websites as results. Check out where "Pizza Next Door" is ranked. It's in the Top Five! Again, Pizza Next Door's high web presence was achieved by proper web design and placement of relevant metatags according to Yahoo's publication guidelines.

Good luck!

Answer 5

I would suggest making a website (with a domain would be more likely to show up) and I think for a small fee you submit your website to Google.

Hope this helps.

Answer 6

get a website or something or a blog, or a profile.
