Contrary to what you might read, submitting your website to search engines is practically worthless these days. Search engines (especially Google) "find" your website through links from other websites. If you do not have any links, Google will not index and list your website. It's that simple. If you visit http://www.linkpopularity.com and check your link popularity, you'll find that you don't have any links. To get your site listed on Google you must get links from other websites. The more links the better. For more information on search engine optimization (the technique of listing your website high in the search engines), I strongly suggest you search in the search box at the bottom of this screen for "search engine optimization" (without quotes). By reading answers to questions asked by other users, you'll find a lot of great tips and tricks for optimizing your website. You must first, however, get some links from other websites. I suggest e-mailing other webmasters asking to trade links. The other answers will provide other methods of getting links to your website. Thanks for the question! xemion-ga |

There seems to be nothing wrong with your site that would stop a search engine from indexing it. If "months ago" is less than 3 months, perhaps you will appear in the next update of Google. It does seem very strange that a site that charges $2000+ for a search engine submission service is having difficulty in this area. Perhaps giving Google a larger mention on this page might be the trick :) http://theenginewizard.com/Engines.htm More seriously though, a lot of the content on the site is several years old (ie Deja News) - updating it might gain you some more customers. |
