It is our goal to improve your web site's search engine visibility and
we know that competing with other web sites for a top position isn't
easy. Without the right tools or knowledge, it's virtually impossible.
**A common myth on the Web
is that submitting to thousands of "engines" will
gain you all kinds of new traffic. In reality, there are not even
thousands of "engines" to submit to. The bulk of those submissions
go to what are called FFA sites that are not search engines at
all. Instead, they are simply a list of links to the last fifty
or so URLs that were submitted to the service. Nobody ever uses these
lists to find anything because they are just a random list of Web sites,
generally with no organization to the list. The primary purpose of these
sites is to gather email addresses from Web marketers so they can
be sent offers for other products and services. By submitting, you are
unknowingly giving your consent for them to email you.
Your position on the major engines is what matters,
not how many submissions you make. Focusing your efforts on optimizing
your pages for the major engines will reap far more rewards than
bulk submissions.
