When i tried searching google i didnt find much on it and people keep saying they just come. I think theres somthen in the coded of some bulletin that makes Bots read all information from site.

Well how can i get engines to search my whole site? I want to get popular and I submited my site to most of the big search engines online. and i only find maybe one searcg result :(.

You could start by using the "site search" above to look for threads with the word "sitemap", and then also "robots.txt"

Search engines normally find pages because of inbound links -- and being visible in the results depends in a major way on the number and quality of links that point from other domains to yours. Just submitting doesn't do much anymore, and in fact if you have inbound links you don't even need to submit. I don't think I've submitted a url to any search engine since 2001.

Hi and welcome! Make sure that all your pages are internally linked at least twice (meaning: at least two links from somewhere in your website should lead to them); builde a nice sitemap that is accessible from all pages; build a navigation based on text rather than graphics; get links from other websites to pages on different levels.

Give it some time, too. Good luck, W.
