Step 5: Strategies to Implement [continued]
Submit to Search Engines & Directories
Below I have listed just a few Search Engines and Directories. When submitting, use only your base URL - http://www.yourdomain.com. It is not necessary to submit all your pages, as the Spiders will find and index your pages through your navigation and hypertext links.
Search Engines
Google [ http://www.google.com/addurl.html] Googles' Search Engine service provides comprehensive coverage of the web. Google powers Go, AOL, Netscape & Many other sites. Submission is Free.
Ask Jeeves [ http://www.askjeeves.com ] Ask Jeeves instead depends on crawler-based technology to provide results to its users. These results come from the Teoma search engine that it owns.
Teoma [ http://www.teoma.com/ ] is the only major crawler without a free site submit option. Teoma Powers Teoma + Ask Jeeves websites.
MSN Search [ http://search.msn.com ]
Gigablast - [ http://www.gigablast.com/addurl ] Gigablast is instant indexing
I Need Hits [ http://www.ineedhits.com/free-tools/submit-free.aspx ] submit to 20 Search Engines at once. I started with this program and it works pretty well.
For more listings - simply do a search for "Search Engines" in your favorite search engine.
