Meta engines
offer a big advantage over conventional search engines because
they give users the opportunity to query many search engines
at once. The results of the queries are often of higher quality
because they represent the best matches from all search engines
queried.
As a result,
Meta engines are growing in popularity. More and more web surfers
are relying on these engines to locate the information they need
on the Web. In fact, these engines have become so popular that
companies can dramatically increase traffic to their sites by
getting listed on Meta engines.
Some Meta engines
(www.c4.com) list the top matching
site from the search engines queried while others (www.dogpile.com) list the top ten
sites. In either case, your site must be included in the search
engines queried before it can appear on a Meta engine list of
matching sites. What's more, the site must occupy a top one or
top ten position.
We all know
that top one and top ten positions on major search engines are
very difficult to obtain. But this should not prevent you from
enjoying extra traffic from Meta engines. There is one easy way
to get included in the Meta engine listings.
The solution:
adding
your site to the only pay-for-position site included in Meta
engine queries: Goto.com. Through a clever bidding system, Goto.com
gives companies the opportunity to choose the position they want
on a list of matching sites for a particular query. Bid high
enough to achieve a top one or ten ranking, and your site will
be included in the Meta searches. It is that easy. All of sudden,
your site will enjoy the same exposure as a top one or top ten
site on Yahoo, Altavista, or Infoseek.
One important thing to remember is that every time a user clicks
on your listing, you will be charged the amount you bid on the
keyword whether the user was on goto.com site or the Meta engine
site. Nonetheless, with top ten positions still available for
a few cents, this makes it a very cost-effective way to attract
qualified leads to your site.
