Ten Tips To Keep Your Website Unnoticed on the Internet
If you are a person who likes to keep up with current trends you
will know that it is important to have your own website. After all
anybody who is Anybody Important has a website of their very own.
However one of the dangers of having a website is that someone
browsing on the internet might discover it one day and what is
worse, actually pause to visit your site and read its contents! They
might even be interested stopping for a while to read what you wrote
in it, or want to buy the widget you thought might be good to sell
as you have more than one of them. If you would like to reduce the
possibilities of that happening be sure to follow these ten tips,
and you can be sure that very few people will even know your website
exists.
1. Choose an obscure domain name. Make sure the name you select
has no relevance to the content of your site, to you or your
business. Whatever you do make sure the domain name contains NO
keywords that would indicate what your site is about and attract
attention when someone searches for a site with your content or
product.
2. Do not submit your website URL to any search engines,
especially the big ones like Google, Yahoo, or MSN. Do not
participate in any offers for your website to be submitted to search
engines for free.
3. Never add fresh content or pages to your website. In fact it
is a better idea to identically duplicate your content on every page.
4. Avoid reading anything about how to promote traffic to your
website. One of the strategies might sink into your sub conscious,
and you might find yourself promoting your site by accident.
5. Set up your website and then just leave it. Try not even to
visit it yourself if possible in case your computer has tracking
cookies. Any visits to your site could attract attention.
6. Make sure that you have a generic e mail address that you
use all the time. An example of this might be a hotmail or yahoo
address. Then when you write emails no one can track down your
website through your email address. An address like me
@mywebsite.com would just give the game away.
7. Even if you are passionate about writing, do not even
consider writing an article and submitting it to a free article
submission site such as Articles Beyond Better.Com. The problem with
submitting an article is that you have to put something in the
resource box which tells other people who you are and how to visit
your website and buy your widget. It's amazing how just one article
can be reprinted all over the internet, and read by people all over
the world. That kind of exposure is very harmful to secret websites
which do not want to receive any visits.
8. Do not put a blog or bulletin board on your website. This
just encourages all sorts of visitors who want to read what you
write and ask you questions. Some people often make return visits,
or even become regular visitors to blogs, forums and bulletin
boards. After all it would be terrible if someone
actually `bookmarked'
your site and came back because they liked it!
9. Do not ever mention or put your website address on your
business card, any promotional business material, or as a signature
file on every e mail you send.
10. Choose an unreliable hosting service that has a bad
reputation. In this way the server will not be up all the time, and
people will not be able to access your site even if they wanted to.
By following these guidelines you can be pretty sure that no one
will notice that your website exists. I hope you have plenty of
money though, and are not wanting to make any income from your
website. The problem with a website that is un noticed is that you
still have to pay your hosting server every month for the privilege
of your website taking up space on their server even if no one comes
to visit it.
