Some forms of viral marketing are occasionally offensive or abusive which will often make people forward it round, but could also have a negative affect on your "corporate branding" when associated with your site. CD9Design can advise you on advertising as well as producing print adverts and copy for you. Remember though, search engines are still an important marketing method as a reasonable proportion of first time visitors will arrive in that way.

E-mail: anne.aula@cs.uta.fi Query formulation is an essential part of successful information retrieval. The challenges in formulating effective queries are emphasized in web information search, because the web is used by a diverse population varying in their levels of expertise. A qualitative analysis of the terms used in the queries showed that only in two tasks, the familiarity with the topic seemed to affect the terms chosen for the query. The self-evaluated search engine skills did not, however, correlate with any query formulation analyses. Online searching: Measures that discriminate among users with different types of experiences.

If you are at a loss as to which keywords to use, look at the source code of your competitors' home pages, especially ones that show up frequently on search engines. If you use a search engine submission service, you save a few hours, but get a lot of headaches. They just send your name to lots of other people who then decide you opted in to their email lists. Industry directories are perhaps even more important for many people than search engines. Put some industry content on your site, so that people will link to you as a reference point for information or the starting points for more searches.

Are you sure that your sites are in the top 20 in 10 or more top search engines for 10 keywords? In a recent review of top pharmaceutical company disease area web sites, we found that many were not ranking at all in the top 30 rankings in the major search engines, many were only optimised for one search engine or a poorly planned key word list. Whilst everyone knows that search engine optimisation is the way to get ranked highly, in our recent investigation of optimisation it was found that therapeutic web sites from many of the leading pharma companies are not performing well in this area.

Once the page is submitted, the search engine sends out a computer-robot program called a crawler (spiders, Web; get it). Yahoo, for example, does a very good job of organizing Web pages into 25,000 categories but only includes about 500,000 sites. When you search AltaVista, you are searching its database for keywords and phrases. This summary always includes at least some of your search keywords and is not necessarily the first few sentences on the Web page. Anything with a name like Dogpile must be good, right?

OSIRIS and ELIB are two cooperative projects at the Osnabrück University supported by the German Research Society (DFG) and the Ministry of Science and Culture (MWK) Niedersachsen (Germany). They deal with natural language retrieval systems and with indexing techniques for full-text databases using natural language processing. Very complex processes in the context of syntactical and semantical analysis of textual phrases including sophisticated valuation criteria could be implemented in large relational databases with online realtime indexing requirements. In library databases, for instance, this generally results in the user first of all learning to put queries like the librarian who is familiar with the data structures.

Meta tags are used to store information usually relevant to browsers and search engines. For example, some search engines look to meta tags for descriptions, keywords, etc. Other examples have relevance to the browser: Examples would be tags telling it to load a specific url after x seconds or tags telling it that a certain page should not be cached. For example, a scientific page about the surface of the moon might not have the word "moon" on it, although the page definately related to the topic "moon". Another more creative use of the REFRESH tag is a fancy intro to a site.
