I have a small website that was designed for use by my car club, I went to some of the car related search engines and submitted it, then swapped links with a bunch of other car clubs.<br><br>One day I Googled my website just to see if It would pop up and darn there I was all over the place, and in places that most websites have to pay for wow ain't that a trip<br><br><br>[color:purple]keep on truckin' brother</font color=purple><br><br>

the swapping of links really works. I read that the more your site is linked to from others really helps in search engine standings.<br><br><br>[color:red]Listen...</font color=red>

Yep... that is very true. So much so that I tell my clients not to bother with paying for those search-engine optimization companies and just to "link-trade" with as many sites as possible.<br><br><br>Click here to visit me.

Thanks for the tip James, "link-trading" seems to make more sense. I was very reluctant to start paying someone just to get my site listed.<br><br>

<blockquote><font size=1>In reply to:</font><hr><p>They seem to include you in their directory within 14 days of registering and the major search engines add you within about 6 weeks from then.<p><hr></blockquote><p>FYI: as an editor for the ODP, I should note that there is no rule saying we will list your site in 14 days. It really depends on the demand of a category your submitting to. Your site can be listed seconds after you submit it to more then a year after you submit it. <br><br><br>Ryan<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by morserj on 04/28/03 05:23 PM (server time).</EM></FONT></P>
