Registering your site – The new way to say hello
Aug 9th
As we talked about in the last blog entry, the more link connections you make with other sites, the more search engines will prioritize your site.
A great way to get more links to your travel site is to have it up for review. Submit or tag your site with companies like:
http://del.icio.us/
http://digg.com/
http://www.stumbleupon.com/
This will give you an opportunity to get feedback on your site and increase the links directing people to your webpage.
I also found this great travel resource at http://www.aardvarktravel.net.
These guys allow you to help other travelers, post information and gain more exposure for your travel company. They have a thriving community full of veteran travelers, I recommend signing up and seeing if you can help some of the community, and as everyone knows, as you do, karma will do likewise.
