Looking to submit URL to paid inclusion engines

Can someone suggest a few that worth the cost?

[Raymond]

I am looking to submit a brand new online store to some search engines.
I have already submitted to some free 2nd tier directories and also submitted to a few other free search engines. I got accepted into 3 directories, still waiting on DMOZ. However, Google, altavista, alltheweb...etc seem to ignore my URL.

Can someone suggest the ones that worth the money and perhaps may archive the best result overall? (MSN, Askjeeves, FAST, GoGuide...etc?). Also, can someone educate me more on the cost per click engines? They seem very expensive as some keywords can go up to 0.40c per click. My budget is low. I have only set aside about $600USD for this.

Thank you in advance.

If your on a budget I would suggest you build some site links to your site and google will find you. There is a way into almost every search engine and directory except yahoo directory without paying.
I recently built a business web site and the domain name was purchased only 60 days ago. The first thing I did was send emails to related sites asking them to include me in their link directory. After a couple days of this I submitted to all the major search engines and directories through the FREE submit links, this way the first time the spiders index me they find links to the new site and give it a better rank.
I have not paid money for inclusion anywhere yet and am listed in google, inktomi, msn directory etc...

IMHO there is always a better way than paying for inclusion.

But, if you do want to pay, this is the short list on a budget:
yahoo $299 1 year - if commercial site
inktomi $40
Altavista $40
ask jeeves/teoma $30
lycos $30
You can also do some small pay per click (PPC) stuff depending on your keyword phrase (you may be able to stretch these PPC for a month or two, depending on cost per click):
overture $50
findwhat $25
google adwords $25
Looksmart $230 (for a year, operates a bit different)

Total: $729 - $499 without looksmart

Hope that helps, WFN :)

>inktomi $40
Altavista $40
ask jeeves/teoma $30
lycos $30

that's for the first page, then it reduces a small amount thereafter

As suggested, work on some Link Popularity and it would work perfect for you.

Beware of FFA links, Guestbook Links, Link Farms and Search Engine Cloakers.

DOn't use any automated softwares for the LInk BUilding and other stuff.

Remember altavista is for 6 months rather than a year like the others.
