Add yourself to Wikipedia Business Pages

Something you will notice if you search for the big corporate brands in Google is that Wikipedia pages for those businesses show up in the top 10 results very often. Most businesses do not know that you can create a Wikipedia page for your own business.

However, these business entries do get deleted sometimes, so try to make yours fairly informative and complete, not just profit driven!

If it offers real information or you are a well known business then it is a lot less likely that one of the editors will delete the business page you've created. Deletions still do happen, but if you can get it to stick it is almost guaranteed to rank on page one in Google for your business's name. This will put more and more of YOUR pages on the Top 10 pushing competing agents and commission earning websites down.

Some Wikipedia pages for the BIG businesses include:

AboutUs.org is similar to Wikipedia, except that its entire focus is for businesses to insert their listings. Creating a page for your business on this site will also tend to rank very well for your business name. And your chances of getting deleted are much lower. A walk in the park compared to Wikipedia, but not as strong...

Google Webmaster Tools


I can't recommend looking after your own web real estate enough.

With 84% of all web searches on Google, you'd better check what Google has indexed and how and where.

ScubaTravelGuide.com Announces Free Listings for Scuba Resorts


San Francisco, CA: February 2, 2007 (DNW)

Dive Resorts now have free access to the most comprehensive online scuba travel guide Scuba Travel Guide http://www.ScubaTravelGuide.com

ScubaTravelGuide.com is for ANY dive resort looking for additional exposure and high search engine placement. All listings include a picture, overview, and amenities list of your resort. In addition, a gallery of pictures can be added as well as user generated reviews.

Every Monday we will accept submissions for the home page profiles of “Featured Destinations” and “Deals of the Month”. For a limited time, the first 5 resorts to send us their requests for a home page listing in one of these categories will be posted (subject to editorial oversight). Make sure not to miss out on this great opportunity!

Many resorts have already been added by our team. Resort owners are requested to review their information, and “take ownership” of their listing in the system. They will then be able to add, edit, and update information at their leisure. Owners should contact us if they have any questions.

If your resort has not been added, instructions on how to add your resort can be found in our FAQ or by clicking on this link.

Dive resorts are encouraged to have their customers report on their experience at the resort, or add photos of their trip at ScubaTravelGuide.com.

In the near future, additional features will be added by region, including information on specific dive sites, local attractions, and other interesting dive related news. For additional information, contact Mark at mark@ScubaTravelGuide.com.

If you want a feature you don’t see, let us know! We want your feedback.
