Need help Please

[mali00us]

I am new to web develpment and learned to write html like two months ago, Every day I learn more and more and try to imporve my site accordingly. I have a problem though and that is getting listed on any of the search engines, I have tried so much but not sure what am I doing wrong besides that I don't have lots of external links. Also I found this site that checks my "html" and each line has an error or a warning, now I went back and looked but I just can't seem to find any mistakes in my html, can any one help please......

Hi Mali. Try the "Html validator" located at www.w3.org. They give you some explanation for invalid html. If you get error messages which meaning is unclear to you, then enter that phrase in Google and you might get some further assistance from other sites which have also struggled with that piece of the puzzle.

It is frustrating for everyone in the beginning, but maintain your patience and desire for knowledge. You're already smarter than most by finding this place, use the Site Search feature here (above, underlined, next to the webmasterworld graphic, upper right) and you will find lots more info. Good luck!

There is a completely new way to build site and promote it. 98% of the sites built with it are in the top 6% range in search engine listings. Since you just started, it is better to use this non-conventional way of doing things on the web.

There isn't really a magic formula. Becoming successful is a function of testing, research and hard work.
