Re: usefulness of search erngines, was: need a nav column...

Hi All,

Someone asked recently if anyone had any alternatives for the normal 
way to get into these search engines....

This probably won't get you into one of those directories/engines 
that are now charging a fee,  but it might work with the others. Last 
spring I registered one of my clients with one of those freebie 
27-in-one search engines. I decided I'd never do it again however 
because that was when I started getting mega-junk mail. HOWEVER, this 
client is now on every little search engine on the web and also in 
every major engine except Yahoo and Looksmart. I also registered him 
on Canada.com which I hear used to be the backdoor to Yahoo--or maybe 
it was the backdoor to a lot of other little engines. I don't know 
and don't care. The fact is he is all over the web now and especially 
on Google which means he shows up on Yahoo. So, except for Looksmart, 
he is all over the web. About once a month I go looking for a search 
engine that doesn't have him listed and they are getting harder to 
find.

Try it. You'll like it.
