Search Engine List Classifications
As the
submission list grew in size, we found we needed to create some different
categories to organize the list. Most SEO projects will just need the
site submitted to sections 1, 2, and 3 from the list.
It would also be good to find some specalized or vertical sites under
#11 to submit to. #15 and #16 can also be useful if you have extra time,
but are generaly beyond the scope of most search engine submission projects.
Category #17 has many useful resources, but some are also affiliate links that we have signed up with and promote. We think you will find most to be useful.
