is there an easy, fast, free way to bump someone's website in google so it appears in the begining of the listing??

Generally, guns, lots of guns.




If you don't have access to lots of guns there are a few other things to boost your Google ranking:

- Use the keyword metatag if you don't already. Add a couple meaningful words in ascending priority and don't go overboard with it. If there are too many, googlebot will define them as spam and you end up with a terrible ranking

- Have some descriptive texts in your website that relate to the topic. "We specialize in wedding and ceremony photography" etc.

- Get linked to. This is a pointless one in many cases, but supposedly works wonders. If googlebot enters your site through a link on another one, your ranking goes up.

- On the german google, there's sort of a register, where you can enter local services for free. Maybe google.com has something like that (Florida > Photography > ?) as well. This might not boost your ranking, but it can well add to the visitors/customers.

- Google supports the webstandard movement and apparently rewards semantic coding, i've seen this effect with a page i did for a friend who rushed past many larger community sites that had really messy code and employed spam tactics (see #1).

how did you knwo which site?
our main site show right up in google (but it took some time for google to find and add it)

or newest site (Weddings VR) which is not yet linked to our main site, doen't show in google yet.

What I really want is for the site to come right up when people search for qtvr weddings, or virtual reality weddings

In a couple of months the magazine adds are going to advertise our new product (vr) and I want the site show in google by then

We want to gain the most amount of momentum!

and this is my meta:
