    Do not waste your time submitting to search engines.
    Build backlinks instead.

    Use a good list of web directories like www.addurl.nu by Jim and submit your site to them manually. Do not go for any automated software.

    Now a days there is no need to submit to the search engines, they will find your site by looking at backlinks found on other websites that are already listed by the search engine. 5 or 6 years ago the software was helpful, but the process is now out dated and seen useless by many in the industry including myself.

    Submitting to search engine is pointless. They have spiders to go out and automatically find sites based on inbound links to the site. Instead focus on building links to your site. A great bit of software for building links is http://www.digixmas.com. It will help you submit your site to about 800 free link directories. True, many of these links aren't quality links, but they will help your site get indexed.

    Oh, and ignore the sheeple that say "software is the Devils work. God only loves manual links". This poor bit of advice got its start because (as indicated earlier), software tends to go for quantity rather than quality (and as Joe Stalin said: Quantity has a quality all its own). Servers don't care if a form was sent to them by a web browser or an xmlhttprequest; they simply process the form. Look at any link directory page and tell me which ones were submitted manually and which ones used software. A browser is software, notepad is software, and copy&paste is a feature of your OS software, so is it bad to copy&paste? umm..no! What about the inform-enter plugin for FF? It automatically does the copying and pasting for you...is it bad? umm..still no! So what if we automate the browser to go to a few hundred sites while inform-enter fills out the forms? Much faster, but still the same acceptable process. Now, what if we simply use the browser engine to make a direct request to the server without bothering to display the pretty pictures for the slow stupid human (who isn't involved in the process anymore anyhow)? Stating that software is crap just because you can't understand the inner "magic" is simple technophobia (ie: irrational thought given as a knee-jerk reaction to a situation which is poorly understood).

    Ok, sorry for the rant. Back to relevant matters.

    Besides the hundreds of links various software packages will get you, you should also build some quality links (quality links are links that will actually bring you traffic). Building quality links is best done manually. You can get some quality links with software too...I'm sure out of the 800 or so that digiXMAS will get you at least one or two have to be good! But, its easier for a human to find a quality site. Look for niche directories, resource lists, or even similar sites that you can either get a link from or exchange links with. It is preferable to get a link from them over exchanging links with them, but (so long as they are in the same niche with you and not banned by Google) exchanging links isn't bad either.

    I don't know as I have a domain that I have only used software for. The closest thing I have is fmbridal.com. What you see is almost exclusively the result of digiXMAS software, but I have been doing some link exchanges with it too. For software, I used both the Directory Submitter and the Article Submitter (but I only submitted two articles I think). I also used a peice of software that I am writing to place links to fmbridal on all my Author's Bio pages at the various article directories. Regardless, ~90% of the links to fmbridal were placed by software, and the rest are all link exchanges through linkmarket.net. I do not consider the linkmarket link exhcanges to be "quality manual links", even though I have placed them manually.

    The site uses www.whypark.com for its content, and all of it is either javascript (unreadable to SE's) or reprinted articles (thus giving me problems with duplicate content filters). It ranks poorly for most of my keywords. ie: favors, jewelry, wedding, etc, but those are all pretty competitive keywords.

    Google's Link: Command shows 2 links.
    My sitemaps panel shows 474 total links:
    Yahoo's Site Explorer shows about 339 inbound links
    Marketleap reports my link popularity as 144

    I honestly cant understand these people that constantly preach manual submission. They must have way too much time on their hands and an utter lack of knowledge on applications and the web.
