Get more links to that site but I would advice not to go for free hosting but go for your own domain. Its better and is not that costly. Some offer $1 per month as well.

Hi shabbirbhimani
Thanks lot for the info.
Get more links mean publish more links in my site or others putting link to my site?

...he meant get people to link to you. If established sites with decent page ranks link to you, it helps you.

It's really pointless to do SEO with a domain like londontravelinfo.50webs.com.

Eventually, your free hosting will not be good enough for your site and you will have to move which will result in a new domain name. All the work you've done to get ondontravelinfo.50webs.com in the search engines will be lost and you'll have to start all over again.

You're better off getting your own domain now, that way when (not if) you move, you can take your domain with you and the search engine traffic will follow.

Once you get your own domain, you will want to hopefully get your website designed by a professional, or perhaps someone that knows SEO. If your website is not optimized, the only luck you will have is from link backs. And just so you know, over 75% of traffic comes from search engines.

Well, posting in forums (like this one) with links to your site is a decent way to do it too. You can submit your link to my sites by following these links:

for the cost of a domain and hosting these days it really is pointless going with a free host as it makes a difficult job even harder. Pick your keywords and use them in your domain name for a start. Then create good content and name your pages relevant to your keywords and work on getting good quality relevant backlinks with the anchor text of your target keywords.
Good luck.

It can take time before you start getting visitors, months at best if your brand new. Googly may not even index you for a while with their new policies. I would recommend finding what keywords are used most for your topic.

Keyword Suggestion Tool: http://inventory.overture.com/d/sear...ry/suggestion/

Once you get your keywords you want to hit, place these keywords in your Title, meta tags, and body of your pages.

Next get a link exchange manager if you dont already have one.. MyLinking http://www.MyLinking.com should work for what you need.

Make sure to place your keywords in your Anchor Text of your links (Title). If you made your title right, you can just use that.

Once you get your content up, your title changed, your domain name up, and meta tags ready, start exchanging links. Make sure to exchange links with RELEVANT sites, sites that may have similar traffic interests to you.

Do not exchange links with random sites, this will not help you as much as taking the time to find quality relevant link exchange partners.

Good luck, and this should get you started.
