someone types that word they will be led to your site.
These are some common Search Engine Optimization techniques:
Pay per click advertising: This method uses search engine listings and leads the user to your web site. You will have to bid
for the keywords you think your customers will search for and the search engine will also rank every ad based on an auction and other factors.
The trick with this is that everytime someone clicks on your ad, you are charged whether or not someone actually buys your product or service. An
example of this service is Google Adwords.
Video/Audio Marketing: Ever open a web page and hear "You can win a free Ipod!" or see a small clip of a video? That is

attention getters but can be very annoying.
Paid Inclusion: Search engine companies will charge you fees to include your website in their search index. Most search
engines provide this service. The fees usually are annually and sometimes are mixed with the paid per click services. This is usually categorized
under search engine optimization as you can see results quickly and change your strategy if needed.
