That actually is incorrect. Most of the main search engines
such as Yahoo, Infoseek, Altavista etc... actually don't
process URLs submitted from search engine submission
programs. If it's a widely used SE submission program (more
than 100 users) it is more than likely useless for using and
a waste of money in purchasing.

>From a lot of experience the only real way to do good in
the search engines is by either getting an exclusive
submitted specifically developed for your company and not
used elsewhere...or by submitting the urls manually on the
search engines. I find the SE submission programs good for
free for all link pages and the non-major search engines but
for the big ones you'll wind up getting burned.

Sincerely,

Craig Vincent
