search engine question

psx23.com · 03-12-2006, 12:58 AM

I am starting a dating site and right now i am just using a starter page with keywords on it to try and get traffic. I have been using trafficg to get some free traffic.

My question is my site was on yahoo and now its not. Why does that happen?
On MSN I was using keywords from my starter page and my site was listed on page 12 and now its gone using the same keywords. The site is still on MSN though. How does this work and how do you move your site up in the search engines?

is starter page = doorway?
make it a fully functional site before submitting to search engines.

Before I invest in expensive dating software I would like to be higher up in the search engines.

What do you mean starter page = doorway?

search engines will usually rank lower starter page like you said, i assumed are you referring to starter page as doorway pages? sort of just like a flyer with no functionalities? you can't trick the search engines, better invest in software there are free out there. or just cheap ones then later upgrade it when membership dictates.

but if you gonna direct your client to just a static page with no functionalities your doorway pages will be useless

My page is like a coming soon page with keywords about the kind of dating site it is. Its just a free starter page from godaddy until I can start getting some traffic.
