What search engines do we target when submitting your multilingual pages?

The number of search engines to which a URL gets submitted will vary depending on the domain, type, and nature of the page being submitted. In order to illustrate that, if you had a gambling related website, 30% of all multilingual search engines which would refuse your listing.

There are some search engines that specialized in B2B applications, and others that specialize in B2C. Of course, this affects the number of search engines related to a given submission campaign. We’re not talking about “blind submissions” but rather a meticulous campaign covering every single significant search engine for any given language.

Many search engines no longer accept submissions, but rather come to your pages and scrub/spider/cache your page information on their own and index it “at their own leisure”. For example, Google uses this method, as do the various portals using Google’s technology, i.e. AOL, Netscape, .. etc.

Things have changed drastically from the 1990’s. We are not only speaking about “active submissions”, but also referring to “passive submission”. In other words, the list of search engines to which we submit your URL(s) represents only some of search engines considering you for ranking eligibility.

When we say “French-speaking search engines”, we refer to every single French-speaking search engine from France to Belgium, from Quebec to Switzerland, etc. In other words, we look at multilingual SEO as online language market shares rather than just country specifics. Your Spanish page will be manually submitted on Hispanic search engines from Spain to Mexico, from Puerto Rico to Argentina, from Chile to Venezuela etc...

For each language, we will submit your multilingual entry pages to all major foreign search engines in that language.

We invite you to visit the “foreign search engine directory” section of this website for more details where we feature links to major foreign search engines according to languages.
