In order to achieve the best exposure on search engines, it is recommended that you submit multiple pages from your site. The main home page along with lower sub pages should be submitted in order to obtain a broader and more targeted overall reach. You can add pages to be submitted via your Submitnet program by clicking on the ADD URL button in your site management area.

Once you become a member, your site will be submitted to the top search engines and directories within 72 business hours.

Submitnet sends an email to you each time your URL is submitted confirming the submission. Within the email, there will be the list of search engines and directories that your URL was submitted to and if the submission was successful or not. One way to view your link within the top search engines and directories is to utilize the Position Check tool that Submitnet offers.

Many of the search engines can take up to 8 to 12 weeks to list a site. Search engines, on average, receive thousands of submissions every day so this can be a lengthy process. The approximate time for some of the more popular search engines to list sites are:

8-10 weeks: Altavista, Excite, HotBot, Lycos, Webcrawler
8-12 weeks: Yahoo!
