Doubts about search results and the Network

[LusoimagesParticipant]

Hi,

Today I made a very generic search on our own website and noticed that besides our own results, plus the Global Symbiostock results, we had about 14 other websites listed with images displayed.

My doubt is, are these 14 sites actually connected to our site causing them to be displayed despite I have not added yet anyone to our Network?

Or they are shown randomly as standard feature of Symbiostock, and possibly no one has actually connected with us yet?

Thanks,
José Elias

We can add promoted keywords to our sites for items we specialise in .

We can link up to 10 others + a step removed linked sites for promoted keywords up to a total of 15

I just tried a couple of searches on your site but only your own and the Global Symbiostock site results showed up.

I have links to ten network members but if you do a search on my site you will bring up results for those ten (if they have results) plus others up to a total of 15

If you go to your Symbiostock (bee) Marketing page you will see your network and your friend’s network, above the list Leo has put ” This scans your network friends and adds their networks to your directory. “

My network/network friends is currently 108 out of the 130ish sites so far so there are quite a few for the search to choose from.

On a related note, if you see a site included because of a promoted keyword and you don’t think that the site’s content is a good fit with yours in a search you can use the Marketing tab that Christine mentioned to exclude that site from search results. Find the site in the list and check the box in the Exclude column

Christine, can you please tell me how can I add Promoted Keywords?

The promoted keywords are in the Network tab in the Symbiostock menu more or less in the middle of the page.

My doubt about adding keywords to this list is if it’s needed to separate them with commas or a space is enough.

Thanks Christine and Jo Ann for your explanations about how the network functions. I thought it just showed the results from connected sites and I was confused to see all those results without us having connected to others.

I separate mine with a comma unless it is a phrase

Oh, thank you, means that I have mine already there separated with commas 🙂 Ok!
