Keeping Up with New Tools

Numerous new search tools, in particular those that are subject- and region-specific, appear almost every day. Keep yourself informed about the development of these new websites and register your pages with them. This will take a few minutes only, but could pay off in the future.

The biggest search engines and directories don't change. There are few newcomers each year. The last ones worth noting are Google and Alltheweb, which are already well-known. To be sure that you don't miss interesting locations, you could also subscribe to newsgroups devoted to search tools and website optimisation.
