Usually when it's linked to from another Freesite somewhere, or when the
author announces it to the public. There is also at least one spider
available which, given a Freesite URI, will recurse through all links it
finds, thus spreading the content around and "discovering" newly linked
sites. It's in the "spider" board in Frost.

Frost has a "freesite-announce" board, and of the index maintainers
accept email and IIP chat (e.g. see the main page of YoYo). If you
aren't familiar with Frost, see <http://jtcfrost.sourceforge.net/>. This
doesn't help with the keyword search issue, but it can get your Freesite
noticed.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
