try submitting your site to free directories. get as many back link possible to your site. that will get your site cache and ranked in search engines
Getting links to your site will get you indexed. Submitting to search engines isn't necessary these days.
ok i am just going around the forums and posting to all of the "free listings" that i see in peoples sigs i hope this works i gotta get in the se's i have like 2 or 3 uniques a day but i knkow they arent all really uniques they are probably my friends at diffrent computers loging in to see if i have posted a new story.
Your site is in its infancy. You must get a link from a site that is spidered frequently to get it indexed. Google usually indexes only homepage initially. Good luck.
Post an interesting (wild) piece of news on your site, submit it to Shoutwire and have all of your frineds "shout it". ha ha ha!

ok i have a story on shout wire called "will you pay for pretty?" i hope this helps me out of the not listed jam.
Your site seems to be missing meta-description and meta-keywords, those would be important when the search spiders come your way. You could submit to more search engines or directories. Important thing to do is to get the word out to as many people as possible. The search spiders do crawl message board and what is important is really to have your signature with your URL in here. That's one fast way of getting included. Work also on doing recip exchanges with other like sites.

As everyone has said, you need links. I created googleidol.com on March 1. It was indexed and in most search engines within 2 weeks and Pagerank was registering at 6/10 after only one month. I've got lots of links in Blogs and this is what has done it.
