You don't have to pay. Do it yourself. I do. Just go to each of the
search engines, and register a site with them. .. Capture the form you
submit, and put that code into a CF template yourself.
I have made one where I put in the keywords, description, basic information
enough to fill in all the forms in all the sites I want to submit to.
Then on the template page I have, I fill in my site name once, site address
once, description once, name once, etc etc. and select a classification
for each search engine, the drop down menus are taken off the site's own
form.
Then the submit button on the action page sends off the information needed
by each site in turn, and puts a confirming page up. "submitted to
altavista... submitted to hotbot ... etc "
Hope this helps.

Hi All,
this may be a bit off topic, but i need/advise on
where and how i can register a site in the top search
engines. I know there are all these sites where you
can do it but do you have recommendations?
My other question is, why do we have to pay for this,
or what does paying provide from those where you don't
have to pay do?
I thought there were robots that go around linking
from page to page and indexing the webpages..so that
when a search is run the pages relevant are found, so
what does paying do?
thanks!
Heidi
