One of the best ways to gets your site up in stats is to use Google Adwords. Those would be the adds that come up on the right hand side when you do searches. You set your own price you want to pay, can be very cheap. If you cancel after a month, your site is still registered with google. Also check out http://overture.com, another good site that also gives you a good description of how to write your meta info. And yes, DMOZ is the way to go. ryan. When you say you are still registered with Google after cancelling, what do you exactly mean by this? |

I'm haven't made an effort to get my sites on the search engines yet, however, google pickes up a couple of my sites if I just type my name.
How do I determine if I'm in a search engine? by typing my url or a meta name?

If you type your URL, the result you see will tell you whether they know you exist or not. It will be pretty obvious. If there's an option, "Show pages from <yourURL>", then try that, too. And as you discovered, what's even more definitive is to type in a phrase that you're fairly sure is unique to your site and see what comes back. Basically, in all these queries if what you get back is anything other than the search engine equivalent of "Huh, what's that?", then you're in. They might not have all the pages from your site completely indexed, but at least they're in the process of doing it.
Search engines and directories are two different things, though I think sometimes people use them interchangeably, especially for example with Yahoo. When you hear that Yahoo is charging a fee to be listed, I'm pretty sure that means in their directory. I was able to submit my site to their search engine for no fee.
Finding out if you're in a directory probably involves going to the directory and attempting to find your site in it.

Have links from sites with high PR.
And how is this accomplished ?? One way is to find sites with content similar or complementary to yours, where you think that links between your two sites would benefit both of you and benefit the visitors to both sites. Place a link on your site to the other site's home page (deep linking to their interior pages without asking permission is considered impolite). Send an email to the owner of the other site, saying that you've created this link and that they are welcome to link back to you, if they wish. If others see the link to your site and consider your content valuable, they may start linking to you, and you might even start getting emails like the one described above. Always correspond personally by email; don't send mass mailings; don't engage in link schemes; go for quality. |

For you people who have had sites up for a while already, about how long is it before you start to see some google page rank for your site?
Also, about how long would you say it is before DMOZ looks at a site? I've heard that they can have very long wait times...

This is a great thread. I've benefited from it and thought I'd throw my $0.02 into the mix. If your business is local, try doing a search for local directories by entering something like -- Connecticut "submit site" -- into Google or Yahoo. You will get better results if you use the quotes.
You may find some regional directories that are useful.
good luck.

Alston, your idea inspired another that looks promising:
Google: "submit site" OR "submit URL" OR "add URL" along with the name of the field or topic of interest of your site
This is to find small topical directories with a focus on the type of content your site has.

Try writing your own blogs with some useful information that in general someone might be interested and in that blog have your website listed in the signature profile. Also stay active on forums, blogs and put your website link anywhere you are allowed to put. By doing so, the spiders will get link to your site as well. More high ranking sites having link to your website means more chances of having better page rank. Also, you have to wait for some time to see real results in improvement to your pagerank (varies from month to two). Have patience and act accordingly, you will definitely have good results.
Good Luck,
Ketan

If you are interested to see if your site is picked up by the major search engines, do the following search (google) site:www.yourdomain.com, yahoo is a little different site:http://www.yourdomain.com... These different variations will let you know if you are indexed by the major search engines. |

I highly DO NOT recomend worldwidesubmitter! Watch the page while it is supposedly submitting your site to the search engine. Where it says "adding your site to whatever search engine"... look closer, it is nothing but an iframe with content refresh pages LOL What you will get though is 1000,s of spam email but not one extra hit to your site.
To get ALOT of traffic to your site takes more then just submitting your site to the search engines:
First you need a robots.txt that is set up right.
Good meta tags.
Then always manually submit your site to the every search engine you can find.
Never use java!
The pages you submit should ONLY contain html.
Search engine spyders don't understand flash so keep that in mind.
Put as many links to sites simular to yours as you find.
Design the pages you submit with text that contain ALL of your keywords.
Don't use frames...a spyder will fall asleep before it figures out what you are trying to do!
By far though..like the old saying goes "NOTHING IS FREE" is the most important. You have to spend money to get high traffic.
