Steps to get your e-store noticed by the search engines

[dittohead]

Can someone tell us what would be the steps to get the internet search engines to notice our e-store.

We know about the meta tags and we are working on them. What are dos and donts with meta tags?

Thanks for your feedback!

>> What are dos and donts with meta tags?
A lot of people are saying some search engines don't use them anymore, but
I've included them in my site. Just add the the Desc and Keywords tags.
Plenty of info on this on the web. But you can look at:

Try to follow these guidlines:

But the SEO in AC7 is excellent.
I have the old store running and a new store running
that will eventually replace the old store.
The new store (which is not offically live yet) has got 6 orders already just from searches
people did on google, and this new site has only been up for about a month!
So using AC7, the search engines will pick you up eventually.
