important to advertise your site. From our experience, the best way to do this
is to include your URL (domain name) on all of your current advertisements and
business card. Most engines are now offering express submission for a fee. These
fees are based on a cost-per-click method that you determine.

business days. Best of all, you are only charged when someone clicks thru to

make sure you do not spend more that you want to.
