No, because there isn't enough traffic, (in most niches), to justify the time and effort.

I have a site that went live a little over two weeks ago and is already ranking well for my keywords on Google. It's not even on the radar with Bing/Yahoo. What gives?
Google and Bing have different ranking algorithms, that should not come as a surprise.

I know I can submit the site manually to the search engines, but I remember reading that manual submission may hurt my rankings.
It's really ridiculous how these rumors get around.

Good advice.

You have 3 million pages from one site indexed with Google?

If "getting indexed" matters, you should be earning a nice pay check.
