Someone contacted a client of mine (via junk mail as it turns out) claiming that their website was not registered in “most of the leading search engines and directories”, and offering to submit the site for a (shall we say) hefty fee in order to reap ‘amazing business potential’. Well once this client got in touch with me I became very interested how this could be! I thought to myself “what proportion of these ‘other’ engines would make up the rest of the search engines in use in the U.K. given that I’d already submitted the site to Google, MSN, Yahoo and Hotbot.
