Iweb Search Engine

I am making a website for my business and i have many different products that one could search by name. Is there anyway i could put a search engine on my iweb '08?

I should have mentioned that, for this to work, your pages have to be able to be "found" in Google.

  • IWeb search engine optimization

    I have created a prototype for a large, robust e-commerce site (using links to affiliates such as Amazon.com)and have asked several third parties for bids on site content enrichment/search engine optimization.
    Has anyone had experience in this area? Can I give them remote access to my iweb template so they can make changes or can they do that directly on my public site? I'm told that iweb does not accommodate meta tags, alt tags, etc. so that there are limits to site optimization. I'm also told I need a site map (I've tried using sitemapxml but its free service is limited to 500 pages and I have more than that) I'm very comfortable using iweb but have been told that I should migrate to RapidWeaver (which I just bought) and have it hosted on GoDaddy. Again, has anyone had experience along these lines?

    The best place to look for the stuff you need is Rage Software.....
    Their Sitemap Automator is fast and easy.
    Add tags with the freeware SEO Tool.
    Have a look at SERank. I haven't tried this yet as I get found in search engines too easily!
    Rage also have an easy to use optimizer but you will find a faster, more efficient one here....

  • Iweb website not showing up at all on any search engine

    Hello,
    I recently switched from Windows to a Mac (and its a big improvement, really pleased with it). As we run 2 tiny businesses, one of my first projects was to make 2 websites in iweb and publish them via ftp to the domains I purchased (both hosted by free virtual servers). When I type in the web address in the Safari browser bar, the websites display and work perfectly. However, for one website, when I google any of the keywords (i.e. santa, reindeer and horse-drawn sleigh hire), or the actual company name (Santa and Co), or the specific web address (www.santaandco.com), nothing comes up apart from the freevirtualservers awaiting content thing. When I click on this, it goes straight to the website, all working fine! I don't expect to be on the first page of google, and this question isn't about how to improve my ranking on search engines, but normally when you google a company name or specific website address it comes up somewhere with the actual site! To make sure, I made a site for a friend (www.djfatboy.co.uk) and the same thing applies - nothing comes up. When I search for www.djfatboy.co.uk it doesn't exist, although typing the address in the browser bar brings the site up working perfectly. I have got cyberduck but as the sites display fine I'm assuming its another problem.
    The other website I made for our business (www.horsedrawnpromotions.com) has a different issue but I'd like to get the Santa and Co one sorted first! I don't know where I'm going wrong, and apologies if I have posted this in the wrong place but I haven't got a clue how to fix things, or even what this issue could relate to. Please help!! Thanks.

    You need to let the search engines know that your site actually exists or they won't be able to index it. Go to Google and there should be somewhere to register your site. Once they know you are there they can start indexing it.
    Also, you can download iWebSEO where you can add tags and page names etc. to help your site be found more easily in searches, but first make sure that the search engines know your site is there.

  • Iweb site, listing in search engine looks bizarre??

    How do I change what appears in the search listing, I get this below:(
    Welcome2
    Welcome | Bridal | Bridesmaid | Communion | Accessories shapeimage1_link0 shapeimage1_link1 shapeimage1_link2 shapeimage1_link3 shapeimage1_link4 ...
    www.boutiquebrides.com/ - Cached - Similar
    It appears to be picking up info from my menu... Why is this?
    thanks

    Roddy is right. You are not giving the search engines enough content to display in the search results. This can be fixed by a better title tag, as well as adding a decent description.
    To do this, download iWeb SEO Tool, as Roddy has mentioned. http://www.ragesw.com/products/iweb-seo-tool.html
    Here is a video which shows you how to use this application. http://apptorial.com/how-to-use-rage-softwares-iweb-seo-tool/
    I would also recommend the iWeb SEO Video walkthrough which will teach you everything you need to know about your site and search engine optimization.

  • Iweb site on search engines

    I have been trying my very best to make my website (http://web.mac.com/bjcarreon) available on search engines because I think it's a great site and people can learn from my experiences but I have been only 1/4 successful because when you try to search for me in google, you can only search what's on the welcome page and not the sub pages. how do i make all the pages in my site, searchable?
    is there an easy way to have my iweb made website searchable on line? please help.

    mate - your in the wrong forum. you have the latest iweb version, and this is the one previous to it. in any case, you might want to check out my tutorial for making iweb sites be on google:
    http://guimkie.com/projects/iweb/get-on-google-with-iweb/
    as a way to make your site be more keyword attractive - make sure that none of your text is as images. if you use simply textboxes, the content will be moved into the html code and can then be picked up by google. text in images cannot be picked up by google.
    for those having iweb 06, i have this article:
    http://guimkie.com/projects/iweb/get-on-google-with-iweb-1x
    i have some ads on my site, meaning it might generate revenue if you visit it. this is apple policy. i have to state it in order to be allowed to post this link here.

  • Free iWeb SEO Tool to Help Improve Search Engine Rankings

    Hi,
    I have just posted a free iWeb SEO Tool that will let you add and edit all your meta tags and header information, as well as a few other important search engine optimization factors. Here is a brief description of what it can do;
    iWeb SEO Tool is the only software that makes it easy to get your iWeb built website ready for search engines.
    Since Apple has often neglected key SEO strategies in their iWeb software, it is difficult for many iWeb based websites to rank high in search engines. This is why we have created this free utility to help you properly optimize your website.
    Features include;
    1) Easily add meta tags such as description and keywords
    2) Edit your title tags for each pages
    3) Add robot rules and language meta tags
    4) Add alternative text for images
    5) All settings are saved in a private database so next time you publish your site you can take all the saved SEO copy and apply to your new site
    6) Edit sites locally or directly on your iDisk
    I am looking for feedback on this tool to see how useful it can be. If you find any problems, please let me know. You can download this tool by creating a free beta testers account at;
    http://www.trybeta.com/home/
    Please let me know if this is useful for anyone. It is completely free for all iWeb users.
    *I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link*
    <Edited by Moderator>

    1. To publish to .Mac just mount your iDisk and go to Web/Sites/ and you will see your old site there. Delete that site and just copy your new site to the location.
    2. Just press the load from iDisk button in the toolbar and enter your username and password. Your sites from your iDisk will load in iWeb SEO Tool.

    I am designing trough iweb, a cd with the contents of a conference (papers, authors, ecc.)

    I have seen that this could be done by using Google, for example, but it works on websites only.

  • Search engines can not find my iWeb site!

    Could anyone please help me, I am rather new on this subject. A few weeks ago I published my own weblog at web.mac.com. But I noticed that Google, nor any other search engine, can find my page. I visited Google's Webmaster Tools page
    https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/sitestatus?hl=en
    and entered my the URL of my weblog
    http://web.mac.com/tina.k.noume/iWeb/loketlindelaan/Home/Home.html
    This is what Google told me:
    "You have entered a URL to a file. Please enter the site URL."
    I do not understand! What can I do?
    Thanking you for you help!
    Tina
    emac   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    Do you mean search engines do not accept my URL just
    because it is a blog?
    What can I do?
    No, Kyn's link didn't work because it's a blog.
    I don't know what Google's deal is with your site... weird...

    i made a free website using iweb and my host is dropbox but it is not showing in every search engine,i have to use a proxy for my site to pop up

    Possibly because dropbox is not really a proper webhost - it might be better if you went and signed up for proper web hosting from somewhere like http://www.godaddy.com or http://www.hostexcellence.com.
    Have you told Google that you site exists?  If not, then you need to do so - http://www.google.com/addurl.

    Thank you Aman Routh. As much as I love eBay, it is not my idea of a search engine. I had actually deleted Firefox from my programs, but, within 2 days, I re-installed with the same problem. Thanks to you, I have google again.

    Hi Everyone,
    Whats the best way to submit your site to the search engines??

    I don't. If it's a site I built, I just put a link to it on
    my site. Well,
    I usually also add it to my webmaster account at Google, too.
