Definitely agree. You can have the best products in the world but unless you have a solid marketing plan that utilizes multiple channels you will be dead in the water. Especially since there is so much competition nowadays.
BUT, I hope people don’t listen to the horribly outdated information on the site you mentioned http://selfpromotion.com.
I skimmed the article and found these points:
He says “It can take months to get into the search engines”
The truth: The big 3 (Google, Yahoo, MSN) will index within days. As soon as they find a link to your site.
He says: “Now that your site is all ready, you next submit to all the major search engines.”
The truth: This is obsolete. Search engine submissions haven’t been necessary for years.
He says: “One of the key components of SelfPromotion.com is an extremely powerful and comprehensive automated submission tool that can properly promote your site to all the major search engines and indexes. ”
The truth: This is a horrible idea. Not only is it against the search engine’s Terms of Service and may get your site in trouble, it simply isn’t necessary to get your site indexed.
He says: “There are many “2nd-tier” indexes that are worth submitting to”
The truth: 99.9% of them are not worth the time.
That’s where I stopped reading.

I’m sorry for that as well. I was going through some of the links I had saved and I added this one to the mix. I must admit I’m not the best in the background info on web indexing so I didn’t know there was alot of old info on there. Thanks for clearing those things up as well as submiting some better sites.
