Just post your URL in newsgroups a few times. My site has been indexed
by at least two search engines, and I've done nothing to *try* to get
any publicity. I mostly post in the Lego newsgroup, and very occasionally
in Java or comp.arch stuff, but I doubt it matters - the news crawlers
likely take things from anywhere they can find it. I get the impression
that it took a few weeks for the hits to actually happen - it likely
depends on the size of the work queue for the crawlers.

Don't design inefficiency in - it'll happen in the implementation.
