Asked Questions
Why choose D & A Marketing to do my URL submission for me?
If you were to manually
submit your URL to all the sites included in our list, it would take
30-60 hours or more. If you've tried to do it all by yourself, you know
this is true! WE do all the work for you! You fill out ONE simple
form for each URL. No need to go through dozens of pages pressing
the submit button or traveling from page to page yourself! Leave the
work for us!
We do not just use automated
submission software like other submission services. We submit your site
manually to the most important sites including Yahoo! This is
done to insure proper submission because some require extra information.
And it's extremely important that you are submitted correctly
to the top sites as the majority of internet surfers use these engines
to perform their searches. Then we use automated submission software
to submit to the links lists, cool sites, and special content sites.
These usually do not require as detailed or specific information, so
automated software is the most efficient choice.
We currently support
over 2500 sites. Your URL will be submitted to every appropriate site
from this list.
We process your URL
submission over a period of several days. We will re-submit to any sites
that experienced errors, sites that were down or too busy to accept
new submissions to insure maximum success.

you currently submit?

for a list of currently supported sites.
We now support over 2500.
Will my URL be submitted
to ALL those sites?
No, our computers select
only the sites that are appropriate based on the information you give
us.
How do I know that
my URL was submitted?
Some of the sites will
send you a notice via email that your site was submitted or accepted,
but we will be sending you a summary report of the sites to which you
were successfully submitted. Expect between 200-500 emails for each
URL. Please note that the major search engines DO NOT send any
confirmation to you.
When will I receive
my submission report?
Within 24 hours of your
final submission.
Do you guarantee
that my URL will be accepted by all the sites on your list?
No, there is no way
that we or anyone else can guarantee that your site will be accepted
into all of the sites to which it will be submitted. This is beyond
our control. It depends on your sites readiness for search engine indexing
as well as its content. We do guarantee that your site will be submitted
for approval into EVERY appropriate site in our database. Generally,
you can expect anywhere from 2000-2500 successful submissions for each
URL. Again, this all depends on the content of your site and the information
you give us.
How long will it
take for my site to show up in the search engines?
Search engine indexing
times vary widely. Some are within 24-36 hours. Most search engines
including the majors like Altavista, Infoseek, Excite, Lycos, HotBot,
Northern Light, Google etc. take at least 2-4 weeks. Others take even
longer. Yahoo takes 6-8 weeks to add your site if it is deemed appropriate
for their directory.
How often do you
refresh the list of supported sites?
The database is updated weekly, sometimes
twice weekly or as needed.
How do I contact
