How do I publicize my work?
There are several things you can do to publicize your new HTML server
or other offering:
- Post to
comp.infosystems.www.announce.
PLEASE READ THE CHARTER POSTING FIRST. In general, always read a
newsgroup first to familiarize yourself before posting to it.
- Submit it to
Yahoo
(URL is <URL:http://www.yahoo.com/> ), an impressive index
of the web which expands its knowledge automatically but permits
the direct submission of URLs as well.
- Submit it to the
NCSA What's New Page at the URL
http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Software/Mosaic/Docs/whats-new.html
(see the page for details on how to submit your listing!).
- Register your URL in the
Lycos Database (URL is
<URL:http://www.lycos.com/> ).
- Submit your URL to the maintainers of various catalogs, such as the
WWW Virtual Library
(at the URL
http://www.w3.org/hypertext/DataSources/bySubject/Overview.html )
and the
ALIWEB index (at the URL
http://web.nexor.co.uk/aliweb/doc/aliweb.html ).
