    It's not for me, but a client. It's money well spent to have a company do these things for them - there are too many other things to be getting on with.

    So, any recommendations for companies?

    Pay

    Fool dont pay!

    It's all about links to your site. Post stuff on message boards (and watch Google start indexing its own Google Groups ), beg and plead people to post links, and without being a spam artist - spam.

    It takes a while but the coverage will build up.

    But I've heard they mark you down if you overdo it and start repeating keywords and including too many.

    Incidently, I wonder why page changes should promote its ranking (apart from trying to weed out abandoned pages that have been left unchanged for years).

    Eh?

    Pay someone to submit to search engines?

    They are either free to submit (Google, Yahoo), or they are meta search engines which means they will spider other search engines and pages to include your site.

    e.g.

    http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl

    Now getting a high ranking, that's a different matter.

    Google has a sandbox that will mean your site may not get a good ranking for several months no matter what you do http://www.softwaremarketingresource.com/article55.html

    All that you can do yourself.

    Forget Google and Yahoo. AtW's search engine is the only one worth being listed with.

    started a topic Search engine submission

    Search engine submission

    Some recommendations please.

    Best company to use for search engine submission, to get companies ranked high in google, yahoo etc.

    Best approach to have the same companies listed high in German & French Google/yahoo etc, so searchable by German & Franch terms?

    Thanks

Working...
