: What can I do to have viewers simply use the website name (New System USA) in their search engine to come onto my URL?
Where are you searching? Are you talking about in search engines such as Google.com or Yahoo Search?
If so, the results shown when you do a search on Yahoo are pulled from the search database at Google.com.
When you update information on your forum it does not automatically update instantly in Google's index.
Rather, Google's index is updated approximately once a month after their robots have crawled more than 3
billion web pages. This process is totally automated, so updated or outdated link submissions are not necessary.
Changes to your forum's content will be noted by the next crawl. Due to the volume of sites in their index, they
do not manually update pages on an individual basis.
You may be able to get Google to visit your forum quicker by doing the following:
1. Go to http://www.google.ca/addurl.html
2. In the URL: field enter: http://www.hwforums.com/2141/
3. In the comments section, add any keywords that describe the content of your forum.
