Submit Your Site ~~ To The Top Search Engines ~~ SUCCESSFULLY!To insure your submission is received, we no longer use an automated program for submitting. The search engines and directories are constantly changing their submission routines which causes auto-submission programs to quit functioning. Many have devised schemes to make sure you actually come to their submission page to submit. So to provide the most reliable method for submitting your site/pages we have provided links to each engine/directories submission page. These open in a new window so when you're done with one you can proceed to the next.1. You can't "fake" and or use artificial methods to create inbound links to your site in an effort to improve your sites Link Popularity. This means that top sites, link farms, link services, automatic link generators, doorway pages, Spaming with keyword text are a waste of time and money. In some cases the use of these methods will get you banned from a given Search Engine. Because of these realities, the number of sites which link to your site is one of the most valuable and accurate measures of a site's age, popularity, and quality. 2. Your Link Popularity (the number and quality of sites which link to you) will dramatically affect your PageRank with Google and many other engines. Given that Google will produce the majority of your traffic, spend your time promoting your site via link swaps with other similar sites and creating quality content. 3. Spend your time creating a content rich site and then submit your site to DMOZ (The Open Directory Project). |
