I know that this one's been a long time since action's hit it, but I followed the prompts for URL submission on Bing and submitted the URL of my home page to them since they didn't ask for the site map address unless I did the XML configuration file.  That's on my list of things, but I figured that for now, our homepage would give them something to play with.  Well, the bad news is that it hasn't really, or at least not at the top of results for things like blindness accessibility, blind access, blind access and support network (our subtitle), and others related to that.  What did I do wrong?  The only way we come up at least on Bing at the tippity top of the list is for someone to type in our name directly.  I wonder why.  Do you think that if I redid our homepage it might help in Bing finding us?  The only time it mentions blind access and support network is in the subtitle heading. Will search engines look for those?  Thanks.

Thanks.  A couple of things though.  Firstly, what is meant by the term meta description, and secondly, I didn't know if I could change the URL  titles.  That's interesting.   But though accessibility is very much our primary focus, it is by no means our only one.  We have also general technology tips in our blog, as well as if we see things that are interesting in technology, we'll put it up there, such as latest security and technology articles that we find interesting, or we're planning on having a section for various downloads such as possibly music related things, podcasts and live reviews of programs, live tutorials of operating systems, and others.  All of it though, will have something to do with the blind, whether it's showing sighted individuals that we can do something thought impossible by the sighted community, or just giving tips to the world.  So in essence, we are a support site with an emphasis on blindness accessibility, after all, our full name is Raeder24: The Blind Access and Support Network.  Are theere any other things you would advise for us that maybe don't have as much to do with organizing the site as much as they do with us being legally organized or something like that?  Something like The Blind Access and Support Network LLC or something?  That seems a little out of range, yet who knows.  And how do you find all of the site map addresses for each part of the site so that I can put them in the configuration file, seeing that's how these search engines are wanting me to insert it.  At least Bing is anyway.  I'll try to focus more on making titles more intuitive and more search friendly.  And I'll definitely put in for google.  Basically my hope is that whenever somebody inserts something related to technology into a search engine, we will come up on the blindness side of it.  Remember, we're support as well as accessibility primary.
