To achieve a high position in search results, your site must be more than simply recognizable by a search engine crawler. It must satisfy a set of criteria that not only gets the site cataloged, but can also get it cataloged above most (if not all) of the other sites that fall into that category or topic. This is no easy task.
By accident or luck, your site will surely land in a search engine; and it's likely to rank within the first few thousand results without any effort from you. A crawler will eventually find the site and bury it somewhere in the results with every other web site on the same topic. The good news this takes very little time on your part. The bad news – the chance of someone finding your site is very low through the search engines. Let’s be honest – being ranked on page 2 will limit your chance of being found. How many times do you click on the second page? We want to work towards the top 5 position on page 1. Remember – You have to start somewhere.
