How to Get More Links

By , About.com Guide

Crawlers, also known as spider and robots, are just programs that search engines use to "crawl" from link to link and add data to that particular search engine's database. Here are some ways to attract them to your site:
  • Include as many specific, relevant keywords as possible in your meta tags. Spiders see these, and will use them to find your site.
  • Take advantage of search engine optimization to organically improve your site; the more useful you make your site, the more people will link to you.
