It doesn't matter how much content you have and what it's quality is like, when a search engine finds a brand new site it takes a while for it to creep up the search results. It costs a little more but you can get a head start by purchasing a domain that is already in use, already in the search engines and in some case already has inbound links to it. There are lots of places that offer these services,<br /><br />If you know what domain name you want try these:<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://snapnames.com/" target="_blank">Snapnames.com</a>,<br /><a href="http://encom.com/" target="_blank">Enom.com</a>, and<br /><a href="http://pool.com/" target="_blank">Pool.com</a><br /></div><br />If you want to search through for domain names then this is by far the best of them:<br /><div align="center"><a href="https://www.tdnam.com/trpHome.aspx">Domain Name AfterMarket</a></div><br />Once you have the domain there are a few tips and tricks to get it going faster:<br /><ol><li>Search for the pages that are already indexed (in google "site:www.name.com") and start of with pages of the same name.</li><li>Have a look at the <a href="http://www.archive.org/web/web.php">wayback machine</a> to see what the content of their site was. Start off with similar content and over a month or so move it to focus on what content you want.</li><li>Have a look at any inbound links (in google "link:www.name.com") and make sure you have pages with those names.<br /></li></ol> </p> <div class="meta"> <p>Posted by john</p> </div> </div> <div id="p1" class="post"> <h2 class="title"><span>Starting out.</span></h2> <h3 class="date"><span class="month">Apr.</span> <span class="day">27</span><span class="year">, 2008</span></h3> <p>As we are starting out we thought we'd offer some advice to you on how to start out doing web site development. The first and best thing to do is learn html. Most of us here learnt it at UNI but we do have some suggestions on how to start up. There are lots of great sources on the web but nothing beats a book you can read and work along with. And when you have learnt you want that book as a reference (who can actually remember all that info?). We have found the O'Reilly range of programing books to be the best for both starting off and a long term reference and this is their's for HTML. If your serious about developing your own sites get one:<br /><br /><div align="center"><iframe src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=wwwyourgreend-20&o=1&p=8&l=as1&asins=0596527322&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr" style="width:120px;height:240px;" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"></iframe><br /></div> </p> <div class="meta"> <p>Posted by john</p> </div> </div> <div id="p1" class="post"> <h2 class="title"><span>Obviously the domain name has been used before</span></h2> <h3 class="date"><span class="month">Apr.</span> <span class="day">24</span><span class="year">, 2008</span></h3> <p>We have had this domain for a month or so and afer a few emails it's obvious that it has been own before by Central Wyoming College Web Development Club:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://d376679.tmp65.quadrahosting.com/blog/uploaded_images/cwcwebdevone-715599.gif"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://d376679.tmp65.quadrahosting.com/blog/uploaded_images/cwcwebdevone-715595.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />About them:<br /><blockquote>"The Central Wyoming College Web Development Club was created to fill a need in our part of the state. CWC offers a great educational curriculum covering several areas of internet web development, and several degree plans.<br /><br />However, there was not a club or organization on campus that existed to bring together students and interested individuals who wanted to spend more time experimenting with the technology, trying new ideas and methods, and picking the brains of fellow geeks.<br /><br />This club creates a great opportunity to share information, expand our minds, learn new techniques outside of class time, and focus our work on more personal projects, while increasing our knowledge, helping our fellow students, and going out into the community to help bring more folks into the world of web development.<br /><br />We hope to make a positive impact in all areas of our work, and bring about new beginnings for novices, and better skills for experienced developers, by creating a brain trust based right here in our back yard."</blockquote> </p> <div class="meta"> <p>Posted by john</p> </div> </div>  </div>  <div id="sidebar2"> <div id="sponsors" class="boxed"> <div class="title"> <h2>Blatant Adds</h2> </div> <div class="content"> <div align="center"> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"></script> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div style="clear: both;"> </div> </div>   <div id="footer"> <p id="legal">Copyright © 2007.
