Here are some marketing, graphics and informational links
that you might find useful.
SUBMIT YOUR
WEBSITE TO THE SEARCH ENGINES FOR FREE
You can use the Submit-Express service to send your website to the Search
Engines. They will send your website to Google, Yahoo, AOL, iWon,
ExactSeek, Jayde and about 20 other search engines. Note: You will
be asked for an email address. Since some search engines send numerous
commercially oriented emails, make sure that you do not enter an email address
which you want to keep free of such emails. Instead, consider getting a
temporary email address at any of the free services (yahoo.com, hotmail.com).

TO SUBMIT YOUR WEBSITE MANUALLY TO THE SEARCH
ENGINES
Although you can use an automatic tool to send your website to the search
engines for free, manually submitting your website has many advantages. Here are
some links that you can use for this purpose:
- For Google just submit the main page from your site.
Google will be able to find the rest of your website pages from the links
that you have on your main page. Google is one of the search engines
you really want to get your website listed with.

- Yahoo.com is also one of the most popular
search engines around. You will need to read the guidelines and follow their
instructions, so you can list your website. They also have a paid listing
service that you can use.

They use DMOZ (see below). You will need to find the most
appropriate subcategory page within the AOL Directory. Then click on the Submit a Site link at the bottom of the
page. http://search.aol.com/add.adp
- Open Directory DMOZ is the largest human-edited directory of the Web.
Follow the instructions and submit your site.

Sometimes you have to resize the images that you are placing on your
website. It is important that your images are not too large, this will
make faster your website and your customers will appreciate it. In the
above, you can find a link to a company that lets you use their software to

their program Media Resizer, it will be a good investment. We have
used this software, and it is very simple to understand and very nice to
work with it.
FREE COUNTERS
If you want a counter to see how many
visitors your website receives, here are a couple of places that you can get
one from:

more than an year now. Go to

great.
FREE ENCRYPTION SOFTWARE
Sometimes you need to protect your files
or storage devices (flash drives, pen drives, SD cards, etc.).
Encryption is the way to protect your files from other people, so they cannot
use or read them without your permission. In the case of pen drives or
similar portable devices many people have lost them, and if they had protected
them with encryption they will feel much better. Check out
http://www.truecrypt.org for a great FREE
encryption program that works with Windows and Linux.
FREE PDF PRINTER
There are times that you want to print a
web page or any other document, and you do not have a printer connected to your
computer. In these cases, it is nice to be able to print to a PDF document
and save it on your computer. You can get the software to install a FREE
PDF Printer at
http://www.pdfforge.org. Check that webpage for compatibilities with your
operating system. This will help you also to review a document on your
screen before you print it on paper. Amazing tool!
