adding your business to google search results

[raverx3m]

any of you guys familiar with google search results?

i added my dad's new office location to google maps waiting for confirmation.

but i could not figure out how to include it in the search results.

for example i when i enter "mount vernon dental/dentist/dental office" in google search, i want it to show up in first results.

is that somethign that is added in HTML header on the root page or somethign i have to subscribe and pay for thru google?

or any other search engine also if you lknow.

It's called Search Engine Optermiseation or SEO for short, google it.

It can be quite complex and quite costly if you use a 3rd party to do it, but if you do it yourself and are willing to do a few hours of dull work submitting to directory's it's cheep or can be farmed out to India for a few bucks per thousand directory's.

As Saxon said, but for the most part if you want that business to show up as one of the top results you need to have more hits on teh website OR pay google for it.
