There are a myryd of things you should do/have to do. Have a look in the Tec>Web>internet marketing section of the boards (where this will most likely move)

In the meantime – PM me your site and I will give you some pointers (free naturally as I am a particularly benevolent moon today!)

sorry -4got this - well it all depends of the keyword(s) and how many 'clicks' you want (can afford) and the amout of peopl 'bidding' for those words.

as blue says there a whole load of factors involved in getting a decent ranking on "natural search" on google, the internet is full of reasonably good advice on how to go about doing this (if you're the programmer) or lots of agencies willing to do it for you , for a few. Adwords are as expensive as the popularity of your search key-words, if you are trying to be in the top five for "sexy teens" its going to cost you a lot to get clicks if you're wanting to be ranked for "wholesale semtex" its going to be cheaper. Very easy to set up an adwords a/c on goolge and test what the likely costs / level of traffic would be for you , if the income generated is more than it cost you , cool.

A few simple pointers:

Keep it simple and don't go for any 'magic' solutions - they're usually snakeoil.

Have good keyword/keyphrase-rich content on your site, but not too rich.
Have rolling content e.g. news articles, blog.
Have good site navigation.
Construct your pages properly with titles, headings, alt/title tags.
Get 'netted' i.e. get links in and out of your site. (Important)
Have your hosting in your key market country.
Keep an eye on your rankings and web visit stats.
Have a good domain name and use descriptive filenames and folders.
Don't use frames or Flash.
Learn to use Google and the other top handful of search engines/directories.
Think about PPC.

Hi Keverton,
Just learn as much as you can about ethical SEO (search engine optimization),research and most importantly try to provide your customers with great products and services.Google wants to make the searchers happy so when you make them happy,google will reward you with higher rankings.

Im in a similar situation with website www.drivinglessonscork.com , Im considering paying to have it added to online directories such as yourlocal (€500 per yr) goldenpages.ie 1500, plus others such as browse ireland, whatswhat and lireland. Does anyone have any experience of these or can they recommend a strategy? Im confident that the site os prefessionsal enough to get people booking but i need people to see it 1st which is my main problem

No is the simple answer, Not expensive you make your own limit on how much you want to spend every month
