Ever received emails offering to submit your website to 10,000 search engines?

There are thousands of search engines and directories on the Internet. There are also many websites that offer free or very cheap submissions to hundreds or thousands of search engines and directories.

You do not need to submit your site to that many search engines and directories. In fact getting good placings in the top few search engines will result in you reaching over 90% of all searches that are done on the Internet. Realistically, there are only a relatively small number of search engines that will provide significant results.

Search Engine Traffic
The chart below shows the share of searches on a search engine provider basis.

As you can see, submitting to and optomising for Google, Yahoo and MSN should be the top priority search engines for your business.
