Use the submission programs to submit to the minor search engines only. Check the rules of each of the major search engines. If they permit it, submit every page of your site, one page per day until completed. It is currently taking some of the major search engines six to eight weeks to update their listings. If the submitted pages do not begin to appear after eight weeks, consider reworking the pages.
Most search engines give greater consideration to pages they perceive as new.
In fact, some search engines consider resubmitting the same page repeatedly to be spamming and assess their spam penalties. Make changes to the page before resubmitting it. Once the page makes it to the top fifty, don't mess with it. One of the greatest temptations is to tinker with the page to try to get that coveted top ten spot, but more often than not this backfires and drops the page out of the top fifty altogether. Apply each of these tips to every one of the pages in your website.
