282 Free Help If you are believe something is wrong with your site, there is a lot of free feedback available at the SEO forums listed in the SEO Forums section of my site. Oftentimes you will get great free advice because the person giving it either likes to help people or realizes that it is great marketing to help people out. Speeding Things Up: Paid Inclusion Disclaimers • I do not usually use paid inclusion. It may be worth considering if you are on a tight deadline, or are having trouble getting a particular site crawled. • Yahoo! has been cracking down on low-quality content. If your site is less than 100% legit or does not have substantial original content, I would not recommend using Yahoo!'s paid inclusion program. If you submit to their paid inclusion program and they reject you, they may remove your site from their search index. Paid Inclusion Benefits • The first benefit of paid inclusion is that you are guaranteed that your page will be in the index, even if your site would otherwise have issues stopping it. You may not immediately list exceptionally well, but it will be in the index. • Paid inclusion programs also offer a rapid refresh rate, which is perfect if you have rotating stock. • Paid inclusion gives you the chance to tweak your page to match the algorithm and see the changes in the rankings within a couple days. This is invaluable if you are teaching yourself how to do SEO. It gives you a rapid feedback loop that helps you learn and change quickly. • Yahoo! Search weighs page content heavily in their algorithm. Yahoo! factors in links, but nowhere near as much as Google or Teoma do. Add a decent number of quality inbound links to a page ranking well in Yahoo! Search, and it should list well in Google and other major engines. • Large sites and large partners may submit trusted feeds that are usually a bit easier to tweak and optimize than changing page copy. • Yahoo allows Search Submit Pro listings to promote additional locations in their sites using quicklinks under their listings. • Some people have also claimed that their banned sites were allowed into the Yahoo Search Submit program.
