Facebook for instance made use of yahoo to gain popularity. I remembered that I was compelled to sign up for Facebook through yahoo. Most successful websites today used Google, Facebook etc to become visible and discoverable online. Therefore, you must do likewise if your site must be popular.

Secondly, new websites are faced with the issue of being indexed by Google and Bing webmaster. For your site to appear on Google and Bing searches, it must first and foremost be indexed by them. Make that effort to get your site indexed by Google and Bing, otherwise, your site would be regarded as not being SEO friendly. For Google you must have a Gmail account and For Bing you must have an Outlook(Hotmail) account. Appearing on Google and Bing search engines can drive tremendous traffic to your website.

Thirdly, there is the problem of competition with other websites that offer similar services as your website. No matter what your site can do or offer, there are sites out there that can do three times better. To stand out, you need to go the extra miles to outshine your competitors. This can be achieved by improving the general appearance of your site, using a supper fast server that aids fast loading of your site, joining groups and forums which brings about cordial relationship with other site owners, writing good and powerful contents, if you run your site as a blog, proffer easy solutions to problems and ensuring that your site is fun filled.
