That depends on how hard you want to work and what you condisder a smaller search engine. A lot of the mid-level search engines are tied one way or another into a major search engines data (sorry I can not find my bookmarked page to show the relation at the moment). Alta Vista and All The Web for example are part of the Yahoo network (inktomi slurp and yahoo slurp).

There are some smaller search engines that you can submit to and there are some smaller search engines that also pull from the bigger networks, so it is up to you to decide if it is worth the effort. I do on occasion pull a sale out of a small search engine I have never heard of. It's not very often tho.

As far as the big 3 go, let em find you and don't waste your time submitting to them. They will find you faster than you can find their submit page.

Edit to add: Before you even worry about search engines, learn basic seo skills. It's not hard.

Thanx...for me the difficult thing is the conflicting and out of date info I run accross. Seems there's a lot of folklore about SE...Like that dude on Dragnet, I'm trying to just get the facts...
