| Contrary to popular opinion, submitting
a website every week or every month to the major search
engines will not help your rankings, in fact it might
do just the opposite. Once a website is in a search
engine's database, it usually won't go away with time.
For all intents and purposes, once a website has been
professionally optimized for all its major keywords
& key phrases, normally the site should consistently
yield excellent, positive results and will drive targeted
visitors into your business. You should be careful of
any company or individual that claims otherwise.
It isn't necessary at all to resubmit a website every
month, but even if it was, there are simply not "thousands"
of search engines that are worth submitting to! In the
real world, there are only about a dozen or so major
Web search engines and a few good search directories
that, as a whole, provide about 96.5% of all Internet
search engine results in the world.
Many businesses and large companies are flooded daily
with useless spam and emails that claim to offer a monthly
submittal service for a small fee. The majority of the
search engines that these services plan to submit your
site are, for the most part, totally unknown to the
search engine community.
So what do you get in return for paying the monthly
charges? Well less money in your bank account, plus
knowing that your site will NOT be visible by the important
search engines such as Google, Yahoo, DMOZ, Alta-Vista,
etc. We have even heard things that Google may sometimes
actually downgrade a site when resubmitted every week.
It all depends on how serious your marketing program
is.
