Site Submission

Sunday March 13, 2005
Got a site that you'd like the world to see? Well, then you need to submit it to search engines and directories. Submitting your site is kind of like turning in that fantabulous English paper that you just spent a gajillion hours revising; but watch out...sometimes the English teacher, er, search engine, will take a long time to get back to you.

Why is that? Because they can, that's why. It might seem unfair, but unfortunately search engines can take a long time to index your site. However, if you write compelling content, design your site well so spiders can find it, and target your audience, eventually you will be successful.
