Why is Search Engine Submission Important?

As of Dec. 1, 2002, Google, Yahoo, MSN and AOL accounted for 92.8 percent of all search referrals to e-commerce Web sites.
During the one week ending January 26, 2003, Microsoft, AOL Time Warner and Yahoo! had over 135 million unique visitors using their search engines.
Statistics from Nielsen Netratings show that during the week ending January 26, 2003, searchers had spent over 172 million minutes using the top three search engines alone!
When you consider that this represents only three of the major search engines, you start to get some insight into the strength and popularity of search engines in today's industry - and hence the importance of an effective search engine marketing campaign.
