SE Submission

Do you submit to SEs or you wait for the robots and crawl your site? If so do you use robots meta tags? I read that it's better not to submit to Google, because that affects ranking - better be found, than beeing told where you're (ie if GB founds you thru a ref link, it's better than pointing the site for crawling).

Also, can somebody tell me how would you identify a bot?

I had several times found that strange referer URL in my logs:

xxxx:+++++++++...

Can somebody tell me what this is?
