The first step to getting your site online and to get better rankings in Google is to submit your URL to search engines. An example of an URL is www.yoursite.com. Eventually the search engines will find your site but this will help expedite the process.
Once you submit your URL, it could take several days, weeks, or months for the search engines to index your page(s). Results may vary so don’t write this in stone. Factors such as other websites pointing to your site can affect this time as well.
1. Go to the following link: http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl 2. Type in your URL, example: http://www.yoursite.com 3. Enter comments about your site. This is optional. Usually I enter the genre of the site and a few keywords. Example: Website design in Hollister, CA. 4. Enter the captcha text shown in the box 5. Select “Add URL”
1. Go to the following link: http://www.bing.com/docs/submit.aspx 2. Enter the captcha text shown in the box 3. Type in your URL, example: http://www.yoursite.com 4. Select “Submit URL”

Great info Art. This is also useful if you create another page on your website and you want it indexed quickly. You can submit pages just like the main site.
