What is Search Engine?
In order to find documents on the Internet, people need to use a search engine. Search engines are very large databases that contain information about web pages. Search engines are automatically updated by special programs called "robots" or "spiders" that search the Internet for new content and then report their findings to the database. There are many different web search engines that you can use to do a search. Some of the most popular ones are Google, AltaVista, MSN and Yahoo!
What is Search Result?
Organic/NaturalResults
Pay-Per-Click Results
Hard Drive Search
“Hidden” Tabs
# of pages found
What is the problem?
1. Typical search returns millions on results. Can you place your hotel or products there?
2. Search Engines only index Relevant Content. How to index entire catalog/site?
3. Search Engines apply 70 rules to determine page relevancy. Is it possible to apply them?
4. How to avoid Spamming and Banning?5. Return of Investment on Internet media?

Dynamic Page:../prod=1004&rl=1Static Page:../14k_gold_ring.htmSound Easy?Although static pages mustdeploy links persistent todetail pages, shopping cartsmenus, etc., in theoriginating dynamic site,they must also be linkedto each other as anindependent static website.
Using Acroterion’s TrustedFeed, an entire websitefrom a few to a few millionpages can be keywordoptimized, and fed directlyinto major search enginedatabases via a direct datafeed, circumventing thetraditional, lengthy andoften “hit and miss”submission process, andfunneling highly qualifiedtraffic to and throughoutyour website in as little as48 hours from set up.
Google does notAccept Trusted Feeds,nor like too manySubmissions. They calledit “Spamdixing”.D2S avoid this limit by Submitting “nodes” only.
XML Feed“Accessibility refers to ensuring that Content is accessible, ie. Ensuringthat Content can be navigated andread by everyone, regardless oflocation, experience, or the typeof computer technology used.”

Profitability Analysis
The profitability analysis is based on the information we collect. Example:
– Total D2S pages = 1050 – Average sale = $150 – Leads per page = 12 / month– D2S visitors = 1050 * 12 = 12,600
If you get 12,600 visitors a month, and 2%2% become customers, generating average of $150 profit per sale, you can expect a return of $37,800$37,800 in one month!
Costs:– Clicks on XML feed = 12,600 pages * $0.25 = -$3,150 – D2S services = -$1,050 ($1 per page/month)
Profit = ($37,800-$4,200)*12 = $403,200 / year
Research shows that on average 2% ofall visitors to retail sites end up as customers. Conversion rate variesby industry
