- How can I make my site rank higher in search results?
Use relevant terms near the top of your document, in the title bar, and in a keywords META tag. Link to ICSC. Pages that link to ICSC's site are ranked higher than those that do not. - What are META tags?
META tags can be used to contain information, such as authors, descriptions, keywords, and instructions to search engines. A good primer on META tags has been put together by Webdeveloper.com - How can I exclude a part of my site from being indexed?
Our indexing program first checks for a file called robots.txt, which can include instructions on what to index. The file should conform to the Standard for Robot Exclusion. Our program also supports noindex and nofollowtag META tags. - Part of my site does not appear in the search, why?
There are a number of possible reasons, they include:
The entire base URL of you site must be in the Industry Links database. If your Website is listed in the Industry Links database as http://www.mycompanyname.com/mypage.html then http://www.mycompanyname.com/anotherpage.html will not be indexed because the base URL http://www.mycompanyname.com/mypage.html is not contained in http://www.mycompanyname.com/anotherpage.html.
If your site is listed as http://www.mycompanyname.com/ then http://www.mycompanyname.com/page1.html and http://www.mycompanyname.com/page2.html will be indexed but http://www2.mycompanyname.com/mypage.html will not be indexed.
You may have a robot exclusion file on your Web server.
We do not index certain types of files, such as .exe files.
