    Submitting new site to search engines?

    Any good free services that can automatically submit a new site to many search engines and directory listings?

    The aim is to kick start this new site's presence.

    I've already tried a few sites, and added the site manually to a couple of the main ones.

    Thanks

    I am not sure if there is any "free" services to submit your site to search engines.
    There are software and services to do that but it cost money...

    I don't think so. I think google allows you do do that for free.

    maybe you can try this?

    Yes you can manually submit to Google to have the GoogleBot crawl your site. I thought OUSAK was asking on how to submit to search engineS and directory listings?

    Unless you PAY Google though, it may take several months for the Bot to get there. The best thing to do to get better coverage with Google (or any other 'bots') is to load your HTML code with lots of relevant MegaTags. Some bots look only as far as the HTML code, and Mega Tags are what they base their searches on. Google will actually scan the contents of your web page and index according to prime words/phrases found within content. I can't even imagine the sizes of their servers and DBs!

    I remember reading somewhere Google has enough servers that if one fails, they don't even bother to replace it. Because they have more then enough in reserve. I also remember reading from the same site, that they are running basic home computers with Linux (no one named a distro) in server configuration

    On topic, the only web services I've seen to mass submit to multiple sites turned out to submit it to none. Only one I can think of is http://www.addme.com/ but make sure to miss out on their checkmarks under your submission, like the ad credits and whatnot.

    It's true that Google has many many datacenters.

    Check this google datacenter search. Not all are updated accordingly. You'll notice that some site ranks higher on some datacenters.

    @Polkadot, you mean "meta tags", not "Mega Tags".

    I'm using good meta tags (keywords and description), along with good title and text in the body.

    I guess I have to wait a while until it gets crawled as per my submission requests.


    Back to my original request, I want a quick free way to submit to as many search engines and directory listings (automatically, with minimal input), just to increase my chance of getting ranked and to speed the process up.

    In the past, for my other sites, I had paid $5-10 to those sites that claim to "manually" submit your site to many search engines... But you never know if they actually do anything... I get better results from submitting my links to sites that get indexed daily, such as YouTube etc.

    Thanks

    Put these tags in the <head></head> part of your website

    Code:
    <META name="description" content="write a description of your page">
    <META name="keywords" content="list, some, keywords">
    The stuff in red - you change

    Already have those Mark, as mentioned above.

    I just need to force hundreds of search-engines to crawl my site. I'm sure that eventually it will get added, but the fact that not many sites, if any at all will be linking to this site, means my site wont get sub-crawled to from existing crawled sites.


    I think Google and other big search engines provide you with a file (such as site mapping or a certificate to validate your submission to prove that you are the owner) or meta-tag you upload to your page. Perhaps doing this might increase my chances of getting ranked faster.
