Answers:
To submit a website start with, Yahoo go to the very bottom of the yahoo home page and click on, "suggest a site". add yours. do the same for other search engines just look for the suggest a site button, aye.
oh, never submit your site more then once in a months time or you will be considered as spamming. And you have to have patients. It can take up to 6 weeks for them to add you.

To answer your question, you can go to the search engine you want your site to appear on and they have a tab set up for submissions.

Go on to the search engines I tell you.
There might even be some more.
By getting other sites to link to you. If these sites are ranked (Google ranked) then you will get into the search engine's database far quicker than manual submission.
Avoid link farms and FFA sites as they add nothing. If you go for text links make sure they reflect your subject matter rather than your site name as the quality will be seen to be more relevant. If the site you are linking from has content relevant to the content of yours - even better.
There is only one site you really need to submit to -alexa.com
They are the source for so many other sites but they are manually checked links and may take months to get regisitered.
It depends on the search engine.
Go to DMOZ.org and submit the site in the right category and follow the editorial instructions (you need to sound impartial in the info).
Also most search engines have a "suggest site" link. Some offer paid addition (like Yahoo).
But to be honest the fastest/easiest way is Dmoz.org and also getting other sites to link to you. If you can get other websites to link to you the search engines will all pick up your site when they crawl the site your link is on.
I had a site get on all the engines without submitting it to any directly simply because I had links to my site from other sites.
Try to post it on forums and blogs and that will be fastest way to do it.
Search engines like Yahoo, Google and Picsearch crawl the web to help people find what they are looking for. To be included in a search service you must have your site, text and images on a place on the Internet that search services can locate. After you have created a website or posted the images on a existing website you can submit the URL (website address) to the search engines for free.
Picsearch - E-mail URL (website address) to submit@picsearch.com
Picsearch - http://www.picsearch.com/menu.cgi?item=f...
Yahoo - https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/su...
Google - http://www.google.com/addurl/
Microsoft Live - http://search.msn.com.sg/docs/submit.asp...
In order to get listed you need at least some back links pointing to your website.

It is very important to promote one's website by first publishing one's domain named website on these major search directories. For example, to publish your website's domain name for FREE at Google's search directory, visit "http://google.com/addurl/?continue=/addu... and fill-in the form. In another way, Google, Yahoo or MSN provide a Yellow Pages kind of advertisement for every website according to a set of ranking protocols. And there's where web designers and search engine optimizers play an critical role in marketing websites which in turn, display goods and services to be discovered [via search directories] by the rest of the world. The greater the appearance or presence that one's website can generate on search directories, the greater number of customers will accordingly visitor one's website.
As for the cost to market one's website via the Internet and more particularly -- search directories, will depend initially with the proper design of webpages and the proper placement of metatags which are: <Title>, <Description> and <Keywords>.
A searchable <Title> would be "[name of the goods/services - a generic domain name is okay unless you own a well-know brand], [city], [state - postal abbreviation]" -- up to 65 characters and spaces. The <Description> would be up to 20 words comprising a complete readable sentence which promotes interest in your business, i.e., "We sell quality _____ at a reasonable price, etc." And <keywords> would consist of 12-15 compound plural words separated by commas, i.e., "cars, planes, transportation, etc."
In conclusion, webpages can either be rather straightforward using only HTML text or be crafted totally as a graphic Flash configuration. Either way, care should be taken to complete the Properties entries for Title, Description and Keywords so that there is something that search robots can index. The more one is educated in crafting effective webpages along with metatag placement, the less will be spent to hire third-party consultants to assist you in this matter.
To demonstrate how search engines/directories work, go to Yahoo.com and type in the following search query: "pizza downtown los angeles." [Note: do not include the quotes (").] Again, this is a very generic query which means you want to order a "pizza" from "downtown" and in what city -- "Los Angeles." Sounds fairly simple and then hit Enter. In a moment or two, there will appear some 1.3 million search results and among the top Five rankings will be a business called "Pizza Next Door, etc." The significance of this demonstration is to illustrate that most Interest shoppers will discover "Pizza Next Door," forthright because of its high web presence and ranking within the Top Five. So these shoppers are more or less likely to patronize this pizza establishment and hopefully in the long term; validate the owner and his family as having a profitable Internet enterprise.
Good luck!
