How to Submit your URL
to the Search Engines
Unixtools once, a long time ago, had a script to submit
your website to the various search engines.
Due to the difficulties in keeping our submission script up
to date with the constantly shifting Search Engine game we've
removed that script.
Instead we're going to give you some links to website
submission resources. Our onsite submission system has gone
away.
Better Than a Submission
Google much prefers to find a website, rather than
to have one submitted to its system. The best way to get your
website found is to get links from sites that Google is already
scanning on a regular basis.
The best way to get those links is to use the free
Black Book:
Free URL Submission
Lot's of places charge a fee to submit your site to many
different search engines. A few of these engines are like
google and MSN, others are small directories and niche
engines.
You can do it yourself, to all the important search engines
(there are only a few) for free, however.
For the Search Engine Submission Forms see the "Do It
Yourself" link, below. To get someone else to do the work for
you, scroll down a little further.
This site makes zero judgement on the value of any of these
sites and zero money if you click throuigh and decide to buy
their service. These are just here to give you something
to look over in case you want to save some time and effort.
Consider one thing - If the service you choose to submit
your website isn't on page one of google for something
like search engine ranking, but they advertise great
rankings, what good are they?
Do it Yourself:
The following link will take you to a page with lniks to the
submission forms of 16 search engines (the page says 32, but
ignore that.) On each of the submission forms you'll enter the
URL of your site, some other info which varies from form to
form, and you'll probably have to enter a code to prove you're
not a robot. Go here for the top 16 places to submit your
site to the Search Engines, for free

Submission Tip - The Search Engines, especially
Google, like to find sites on their
own. Google and the others regulary crawl the web with
their robo-spiders, following links whereever they may go.
If one of these links lands on your site then you get
a little more credit than if your site is found by you
submitting directly to google.
Try to get a link to your site(s) from another site already
indexed in google. If the page linking to you has a high
page rank (as defined by Google) then
that's even better.
