Search engines are by far the most popular method of finding sites on the World Wide Web, but most Web sites are designed with little or no knowledge of how search engines work. With Google's database now exceeding 2.5-billion pages, how can you make your site visible to searchers? And how important is the bewildering range of pay-per-click and pay-for-inclusion options?

Robert Charlton, search engine optimizing (SEO) consultant, will try to dispel some of the prevalent misinformation that is confusing to both webmasters and marketers. In this program, he will discuss the right web marketing options for your needs, explain why he feels search engine optimizing coupled with link-building is one of the most cost-effective methods of online marketing, and provide tips on how you can make your site more visible to searchers.

Charlton has optimized sites and achieved top rankings for clients of all sizes. He has provided SEO consulting to companies and organizations in a variety of fields, including education, publishing, entertainment, travel, software, and consumer products.
