Seven Myths About Search Engines Demystified
Summary
With countless resources available online about improving search engine rankings, it can be difficult to separate fact from fiction. Over the years, several myths have cropped up, often stemming from outdated techniques or misunderstandings. Below, I clarify the top seven myths I've encountered on the internet.

$45 Will Get You a #1 Position
The claim that paying $45 will secure a top Google or MSN ranking is a blatant falsehood. Guarantees for ranking are impossible to make. The process involves optimizing your pages and implementing a solid marketing plan?"far more than just a payment.
Multiple Submissions Improve Rank
Submit your website once. If it hasn’t been indexed in a few months, submit it again. Generally, search engines like Google and Yahoo automatically index sites to provide relevant information, so there's no need for repeated submissions. Focus on important search engines that influence others.
It's All About Meta-Tags
Meta-tags, while useful for descriptions in search results, are not the main factor in determining site rankings. Overloading them with keywords won't help. Instead, use one or two relevant keywords per page. Remember, search engines like Google often ignore most meta-tags.
Page Rank Is Everything
Page Rank is just one tool among many others that search engines use to determine rankings. It's often overrated. Higher Page Rank doesn’t always equal a higher listing, as seen in varied search results.
All Web Designers Understand Search Engines
Not all web designers have expertise in search engine optimization. While they might create visually impressive websites, they may lack the skills to optimize them for search visibility. Always request case studies of optimized sites before hiring.
The More Links, the Better
Quality trumps quantity when it comes to links. Relevant links from sites on similar topics improve rankings. A large number of irrelevant links from directories won't be beneficial.
Search Engine Optimization Is Technical
SEO is indeed time-consuming and requires an understanding of search engine functions. While it's something you can undertake yourself, hiring an expert can be more efficient and cost-effective for businesses.

SEO requires dedication and effort. If you have time and some knowledge, you might manage on your own. However, for those with limited time, hiring an expert is the best approach to boost your website's visibility.
