Search engine
submission is an off-page optimization strategy in which a website is directly
submitted to a search engine for indexing and to get it listed in search engine
listings. It is considered an initial step for website promotion or to get
search engine traffic.
There are mainly
two methods for search engine submission. The first method allows you to submit
one page at a time by using a webmaster tool like Google Webmaster Central or
Bing Webmaster Tools. The second method allows you submit the entire site by
submitting the homepage.

allows you to inform search engines about your presence and the product or
services offered by you.

wait for the web crawler to find it organically.

cost effective as you do not have to pay to get your site listed into search
engines.
