Hi jandg,

Good day and thanks for your question.

The following is taken from the Google Webmaster Help pages :

"The best way to ensure Google finds your site is for your page to be
linked from lots of pages on other sites. Google's robots jump from
page to page on the Web via hyperlinks, so the more sites that link to
you, the more likely it is that we'll find you quickly.

We add thousands of new sites to our index each time we crawl the Web,
but if you like, you may submit your URL as well. Submission is not
necessary and does not guarantee inclusion in our index. Given the
large number of sites submitting URLs, it's likely your pages will be
found in an automatic crawl before they make it into our index through
the URL submission form. We DO NOT add all submitted URLs to our
index, and cannot predict when or if they will appear."
://www.google.com/webmasters/1.html


On the same page, the following is also mentioned:

"2. What else can I do to get listed in Google?

Google partners on the Web include Yahoo! and Netscape. If you are
having difficulty getting listed in the Google index, you may want to
consider submitting your site to either or both of these directories.
You can submit to Yahoo! by visiting
http://docs.yahoo.com/info/suggest/. You can submit your site to
Netscape's Open Directory Project (DMOZ) by visiting www.dmoz.org.
Once your site is included in either of these directories, Google will
often index your site within six to eight weeks."

There is a good article at
http://www.webmasterstop.com/articles/submit-google.shtml

My personal opinion about your site. Try to add a few more pages. Try
to make all your pages accessible. One of your links were broken. Get
some sites to link to you and link to 3 or 4 sites too.

If you have any clarifications, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thank you for using this service and have a nice day

Warm Regards,
Aditya.

To make it simple, your domain isn't in their system.  Visit
://www.google.com/addurl.html and submit it.  Actually, I
submitted it for you since I was bored.  Once they crawl your page, it
will be possible to register for a free search.
