why you shouldn't pay for inclusion

(because you must pay for every single page)

i have two sites. for one of them i didn't pay a single cent - when it went online, ALL of it's pages were included after 3 months in inktomi, fast and altavista - ALL of it's pages are still there and are doing great. they made it in the index in december.

for the other site i went to positiontech and payed 39$ (basic submit). i thought i would get some bonus for paying, higher ranking or whatever - nothing. only one single page of that site has been included and i guess the other pages will never get included it in the index unless i pay for it. that's really ridiculous!

so NEVER pay for inclusion, just wait 3-4 months and ALL of your pages will be included. if you like to pay, you should have the money, because you must pay for *every single page*.

Fair enough if your clients are happy to wait that long.

None of ours are willing to wait that long to appear at the top of search engines.

You didnt read the instructions I think! Im pretty sure PositionTech makes it very clear that you are only paying for fast indexing of that page and reindexing every 2 to 3 days.
