I used to maintain a site that was limited to users in Kent - South Eastern
corner of England.
I still get enquiries from Australia, USA and even the occasional one from
China.
This site was found by Google within 2 months of being registered, with (at
that time) NO links to it from anywhere else.
(And some people submit their sites to Google and wait several months before
it gets crawled)

Take a look at the Basic Web Site tutorial at
http://by-expression.com/content/tutorials.aspx
This was created for beginners using Expression Web (the successor to
FrontPage), but you may find the ideas presented useful.

Hot-text,

I respect your attempt at helping but i do l know that SEO is far more
complicated than just posting my url in a discussion group. Whether you
realize it or not this site is not my first ever website i have created over
4 different web sites and one i dabbled in Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
and there is possible way that is possible each site if the creators with for
it to be found as a search result in say google, yahoo, bing, msn, or others
you have to submit the site through a certain procedure that the serach
engine outlines and you have to add meta tags and all in order for the search
to find it. So i respect your comments/suggestion but i feel i should
respectfully ask you to refrain from further comments in my topic. Your
understanding is greatly appreciated.

That can not be so True submit the site through a certain procedure that the
search engine outlines I do not do!
Just here in the NewsGroups
And here came Mr. Crawl-66-249-26.googlebot.com for this NewsGroups for me
just putting one for the Road http://www.hot-text.aht.cx/

googlebot robots coming back for more!

Josh ... much as I hate to say it .. hot text is right .. if you have a site
that never has a link anywhere then it won't get spidered.. but just one
link and its spidered you don't need to submit your sites to search
engines... I haven't done for years..... I put up a new blog one time linked
to it from my main site and it was in Google four hours later....
If you want to protect a site seo wise you put it in a password protected
area so the search engines can't see it, which is what I do with client
sites.

regarding clicking a link and publisher opening .... suggest you ask that
question on the publisher newsgroup they might know more.

There are free word and publisher programs you could use and put alink to
for people to get and user.. but that's a clunky idea...
I did hear tell there was an excel reader not sure if there is a word reader
(ask in word ng)

You can save files in word (and I think in publisher so that they can be
used in earlier versions as well as later you just have to save them that
way)

CSS wise..... when I was trying to learn css and using fp ... up to 02 ....
I was having a hard time... then fp03 came out with split view .. this makes
the world of difference I recommend working in that view for most of the
time you learn without knowing ... because the css interface in fp was so
clunky (and despite that I still learnt from it) we used to recommend
topstyle lite a free css editor (though I got a great offer and got the pro
version) ... I didn't really learn the program I just used the css
properties and because I did that I hand coded the styles as I got to know
them .. the css properties makes the style for you.. it sort of acts as an
'interpreter .... well along comes expression web and it has css properties
.... (with less clunky styles manager) ...but I still find it ... not
intuitive to use.... I use the css properties with the style sheet open...
this lets me keep and practice my css knowledge.. I found the hardest thing
to get my head around was understanding divs.... once I did it all jumped
into place (what I had learnt)... so I recommend implementing my setting up
ebook


Free Setting up Expression Web Ebook
http://any-expression.com/expression-web/ebooks/setting-up-expression-web-ebook.htm

and using css properties with the style sheet.... you start with one thing
you want to do and go from there.... there are a couple of good places to
learn things from

http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp sets out all the examples for you

Thank you,

I do not care whether the siute is in a search engine or not i searched
several search engines and could not find my site. I do know that even if it
"spiders" then my site would still have to go through a long tedious process
to get bumped up in ranking so that people could find it relatively quickly
in the first 1-5 pages anyway which i doubt it will ever get that much
attention and ranking bumps. As for CSS i will tinker around with it some and
see if I can master it.

Well it all depends on some factors .. I have a ten year old site with my
other sites being of varying ages from then ... combined they help bump any
new one's up with a back link....but most of any new one's I do work off
their own basic seo. I just do basic stuff and I still place on the first or
second page ... my hardest keyword is for the keywords expression web ... I
usually come first or second page..depending on the new content I've put
on... my blog usually does exceedingly better than my site probably because
of its domain name. The other day it was on the first page today along with
my site its on the second page.

but when you are searching it also depends on the keywords used and if they
are on the page... there are tons of basic seo stuff you can do to site..

LOL .. I've actually lost the thread of this thread.... I think I will have
to leave it there... but if you want any basic seo help let me know.
