How does an individual search engine like google or yahoo different from a meta search engine like google custom search engine or surfwax?

What are the advantages of submiting site in search engines?

A better question would be - "what are the disadvantages?!" That question has many answers but chief among the benefits are as follows:

- Allows a level of visibility to web search queries otherwise not possible without huge brand name recognition

- Gives immediate market penetration to upstart and unknown brands

- Demonstrates keyword query expertise

Of course hundreds of reasons can be given but just remember - your site exists to give your message, whatever it be, VISIBILITY.

I will caution to FOREGO paying for 'website submission services'. They are a complete waste of money and charge TONS of money for something anyone can do.

Submitting a site is about getting it 'indexed'. This can be done easily by simply going to a site like, say, Youtube - setting up a channel and inserting your website link in the profile section.

You need not go that far - insert your link into the profile here on answers.com
