BlogWalla in Walla Walla

As administrator of BlogWalla.com, I want to encourage our users to discuss topics that are related to their other personal or business web sites. Web site promotion is not well known for many web site owners.

Many think, “OK I had a web site built, now where are the people?”. Web sites don’t automatically get traffic, and if your trying to sell something or provide a service you won’t be able to survive on that limited internet traffic alone.

The only way you can get your site to get more traffic is to build it properly and promote it online. If you didn’t do the actual “building” of your site, you can’t control many things of how it is built with the HTML code and much of it you don’t have to worry about. You can read your site though, and you can control what words should appear on your site.

Search Engines, such as Google, Yahoo and MSN will “read” your site. They will then compare your words on your site with words that users are searching for. If there are “words” in images these are not really words to the search engines.

I have some Web Visibility Tips and will help with promoting your site with BlogWalla.com, but those same concepts will work with your own sites.
