In your search for search engine services you probably found some great promises at an unbeatable price. Those "providers" submit your site to thousands of search engines in the hope of creating huge amount of links to your site. But as you learn more about search engines you will find out that this is the worst strategy, creating scores of useless links and references in resources that having nothing to do with your business, if it works at all. And while this may sometimes work (if you're lucky) none of the major engines is fooled by those massive submissions and they strongly--and durably--penalize whoever he's trying to trick them.
For those reasons, we recommend to steer clear of services that promise marvels with a mere $19.95 investment. At best this practice will not only be useless but also can prove very detrimental, causing the failure of whatever else action you may have planned with search engines in the likely event that you are considered a spammer.
The ideal situation is for search engines to find you, not the other way around. The way to accomplish this is to publish some worthwhile content and secure a couple of links from already indexed sites.Once you are referenced your listing will trickle down to countless small sites which draw their results from the bigger ones. This almost never works the other way around.
SEO Samba does not submit your site to search engines, and if you can not have an acquaintance place a link to your site on their already indexed website then we recommend using the Yahoo Search Submit program. This program guarantees an indexation of URL's in Yahoo's natural search results. Indexation time varies between 48 hours and a week. Note, that mere indexation does not guarantee your placement to top of search engines. For this, you do need to optimize your website, and for this task we recommend SEO Samba as a platform indeed.
