| What is Search Engine Submission? |
|
Search engine submission is the process of contacting a search engine to request that it evaluates a web site's content. The objective is that the site's content will be considered useful by the engine and therefore the address of the site will be recorded and outputted in the engine's results whenever a user submits a related query.

| Why should I use Search Engine Submission? |
Search engines are now firmly established as the number one means that people use to locate information on the internet. Search engine giants such as Google are even becoming more popular than traditional reference material such as the Yellow Pages. It goes without saying that if you want a good number of people to be able to find and visit your web site, then you stand a far greater chance if your site appears in a search engine's results.
Search engine submission helps to achieve this by notifying the search engine that you exist and requesting that they evaluate and list your web site.

| Can I submit my site by myself? |
|
Yes. Our search engine submission services simply perform the same operation that would occur if you visited a search engine and clicked their "Add my site" link. However, the benefit of our service is the ability to perform this operation on over 650,000 search engines worldwide in a matter of seconds!

| Will submitting my site to the search engines guarantee me results? |
It may certainly help. Submitting your web site to a search engine notifies the engine of your web site's presence and requests that your site be visited by the engine's "spider" when it next crawls the internet. Although the decision of the spider to visit your site is out of the control of the submission process, it is in the best interests of the search engine to look you up. This is simply down to the fact that the more information the engine has, the more beneficial it's results will be. Assuming your site contains relevant material that the spider can categorise, it's highly likely that your web site will be visited and added to the engine's database.
In short, the key objective of the submission process is to make your web site "findable".

| How long will it take to get listed? |
|
Going on experience, web site details submitted using our process usually begin to show in non-fee based search engines such as Google and Yahoo anywhere between 2 - 12 weeks. This can't be guaranteed simply because the indexing process is administrated by each engine's organisation. However, a combination of having a good content-filled web site, carefully targeted key words and submitting to let the engines know your there is highly likely to boost your ranking within search engines.

| Could using your Site Submission services cause me to receive masses of SPAM e-mail? |
|
No. Although it is an unfortunate truth that many of the smaller search engines attempt to collect personal data for use in mailing lists, we will NEVER submit any personal information to any search engine. All contact details you provide us with are held securely within our databases and used solely for internal administration purposes should we need to contact you.

| Will your submission services help to get me a top 10 ranking in Google? |
|
It certainly may complement existing efforts. To get a top ranking in Google or in any serious search engine, a variety of criteria need to be met. The most important of these being your site's content. Search engines build their reputations on providing meaningful and accurate results to their users. Therefore it is imperative to their success that the web sites they list, especially those that appear near the top, are the ones the engine considers to be the best possible match for satisfying the searcher's query. Our service can't tell Google that you should be ranked number one in their results (we'd love to have that ability!), but we can tell it along with thousands of other search engines that your site exists, provide a little info on what it's about and request that it be considered as a worthy result.
