82 Part 2: Developing a site 5 Registering your site in search engines The SEO of a site is made on the search engines directly. Remark : Sometimes, the SEO of a site implies certain fees. Two types of search engines are available: • "Automatic" search engines : These search engines are based on automatic programs for analyzing the content. How can I get my site optimized ? An "Optimize your site" link is often available for this type of search engine. Simply specify the address of the site and the email of the Webmaster. The site will then be automatically analyzed (analysis based on the keywords and contents of your site) and optimized. • "Directory" search engines : These search engines optimize sites that have been previously checked by human beings. How can I get my site optimized ? An "Optimize your site" link is often available for this type of search engine. In most cases, the SEO procedure is as follows: 1. Choosing a category for the site (leisure, culture, etc.). 2. Filling out a questionnaire about the site to optimize: Internet address of the site, email of the WebMaster, description of the site, etc. 3. Once your questionnaire has been sent, your site will be evaluated by a person from the company that manages the directory. This person will list your site if they find its content interesting.
