    Should I pay a service to list my site to search engines? If so, which ones are the best buy for the money?

    My site is listed in Google. Enough said?

    Thanks

    No, you dont need to pay anything to get indexed (and listed) on the important searc engines (google, yahoo, etc).
    You just need to get a lot of backlings (just make sure that those links do not have the rel=nofollow in the <a href> teg) with your manin keywords on the anchor text. The main keywords are that in which you expect to appear in search results.

    I would never pay, but I might because I have done all those free services and all those other things (google webmaster tools) and I cant seem to get my sites indexed! Its been like 3 months

    Sign up to google webmaster tools and submit a sitemap yourself its all in there just takes some reading.

    http://www.google.com/webmasters/

    That way you can mange your site yourself from google and then build backlinks etc from there.

    As with getting listed with msn and yahoo it also depends on when you started promoting your web-site, the beginning of the month end of the month.. Sometimes updates can take a while.

    No, google yahoo and MSN will index when you get quality back links.

    It will help to make sure you are indexed especially in smaller search engines with smaller crawling capabilities.

    What's the point? The vast majority of traffic comes from search in a handful of Search Engines. Any decent search engine will find you are you create backlinks. What is more important is that you find the handful of really relevant Directories for your product/service and get links there. Then you move on to other methods to gain links and traffic.

    If you have even a few backlinks Google, Yahoo, MSN, Ask, are going to find you.

    You are right, but on most of my sites I see a small amount of traffic from second and third tier search engines each month. So, say I spend an hour submitting to 300 search engines and that brings me 30 visitors a month basically forever is that worth it - I would say yes (that is 360 a year). Also, if I look at my analytics I am amazed at the conversion rates on some of the smaller engines - many times they are 10 or 20 times betters than Google or Yahoo. Just my 2 cents...:) Good luck.
