Hi
Does HG offer search engine submissions to their customers?

and if not how would you i go about doing it?

Thanks

Do it by hand, auto submissions can get you banned if the actual search engine allows them in the first place, have a look in the terms and conditions of google, yahoo and msn and you'll see what I mean.
Apart from the ones I just mentioned dmoz is about the only other one you really need to worry about.

It really doesn't matter anymore, at this point search engines crawl any site and don't need submissions. =\

Put your link on a site that is already listed in Google. That will get you listed in about 2-4 weeks.

Less then that, put my site on a forum I go to in my signature. The forum is crawled by atleast 4 search engines at any given time so I was listed within a day. lol

Yea, pretty much. I had my site up for about 3 days before it was listed. All I did was go on a few forums and include it in my post or profile.
