Major Search Engine Submission: How To Get Listed In Google, Yahoo And MSN
Bloggers often ask how to get their blog listed in the major search engines.
Heres how:
1. Submit Directly: Submit your blog via Googles free submitting form. http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl
2. Submit your sitemap to Google. http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/
3. Submit your site to DMOZ, the Open Directory Project. Keep in mind that http://DMOZ.com is run by volunteers; therefore it may take some time before you are listed and a submission does not guarantee listing.
