How to copyright a program with public domain pictures?
Q. I'm developing specific DVD programs with public domain pictures I find on the internet. I am required to copyright the programs before I sell them. I was told that in order to copyright a specific program, i would need to prove the picture I got off the internet was in public domain by researching it three times through various search engines and documenting my searches to the library of congress copyright office. How do i do the research to prove the pictures are legitimate and in public domain? I've been finding most of the pictures on Wikki commons and found the Public Domain Logo.

A. Nothing complicated to get public domain. Anything in the public domain can be used by anybody. All you do is give a mention to what domain you got the pic from. Example... When I do magazines, I would put something like "Courtesy of XXX) XXX=stands for the person or domain's name. That's it Find that same pic again in another public domain site and take note. Once you have 3 sites. You are set. That is what is meant when yhey ask you for 3 differenct sites. That way. No one can argue. :)

Details on how to list websites with searching engines?
Q. I'm basically freelancing and need to design a simple website for a church. I know these people and want to do them a favor. It will be a .com domain name (not secured as of yet...still making a proposal on the site design itself). However...once the site is up and running, how does it get 'listed' in search engines like Yahoo, Google, etc.? I know about a good bit of the web design aspect - but not about how the advertising works with the search engine. Is it *really* just as simple as putting specific keywords into the "META" tags hidden in the main page coding? Or does it require some type of enrollment through the search engines for people searching those keywords? If you could explain in detail how the META tags work and how sites in… [cont.]

A. No- it is not all 'that simple'. Tags and descriptions are a necessity on each page, not just the home page. Try to make them specific to each page. But to make the site SEO- there is much more that needs to be done within the site. Remember that content of the site is very important along with 'links' in the site. These are things that will get you started. Manual submission to the 'engines' can be done also. The criteria on which the 'engines' search sites is an ongoing changing thing. To explain in detail would mean that I would have to write a book - and honestly, I am not that knowledgeable about it all either - but am still learning as I work with some of the best.
