If you host your 3D content in Linden Lab®'s Second Life®, this explains what Metaverse Ink search lists by default, and how to get additinal listings with our search engine.

By default, Metaverse Ink search contains only and all parcels marked "Show in search," and the objects in them marked for sale or pay objects, as well as parcels on sale to everyone. If your parcel is marked "Show in search," and you want to be listed with us, you don't need to do anything. Listing is free. Additionally, Metaverse Ink supports listings of (1) any parcel in SL, even when owners don't want to pay the weekly "Show in search" fee to Linden Lab; and (2) products in vendors.

1) Listing parcels without checking "Show in search"

If you want to use our search engine for people to find your parcel and products, and are not willing to pay the weekly fee to LL for "Show in search", you can do so very easily. Simply add MetaverseInk Masters to the list of allowed residents in your parcel, even if your parcel has public access (please use the viewer 1.19.x to do this). Our crawlers check that list, and will visit any parcel that has this master avatar explicitly on the Access list.

2) Listing products in vendors

If you sell your products through scripted vendors, and you want to list those with us, you can do it very easily. Simply place one of our scripts in your vendors. Please choose the script that best fits your vendor. If they don't fit exactly, you can adapt one of the scripts, so that it sends the right information to our crawlers.

Please allow 3 days to see your parcels and products listed.
