The Bottom Line Looking for traffic to your site? If you've got some time, submit your URL with a description and keywords to these search engines - they're all FREE!
There are hundreds of thousands of search engines on the net just waiting for you to submit your site URL! If you’ve surfed at all, you have probably noticed many of the “big players” including AltaVista, Dmoz, Yahoo!, Excite, HotBot, Google, Northern Light, NetscapeSearch and Lycos. But beyond the heavy hitters and all of the “pay” search engines, lie many search engines that are FREE. All it takes to submit your URL is a little bit of time - time to organize your info and fill out a few forms. Of course, if you go to a place like INeedHits.com (http://www.ineedhits.com/addurl) and fill out one form, you’re “good to go” for several different search engines!
