9. Manually submit your website to the major search engines.

How it works: Submitting your site to search engines reduces their effort in finding you. Once you’re in their database, they can index your pages, and rank them.

Pro: Saves the search engines time. Not like they care…

Con: Based on personal experience and other webmasters experiences posted on forums, you get indexed faster if you submit to some key sites other than search engines. There’s even reports of submitted sites sitting for WEEKS without even one visit from Googlebot. Instead of submitting to the search engine, submit your site map using Google’s webmaster tools and submit to some major DO FOLLOW sites.
