This really depends on the keywords you are targeting. For example if you choose a keyword such as a company name, the chances are you are already in the top 10. Once you have decided on what words to target, you will need to use them liberally in your meta tags, heading tags, filenames, and your actual RELATED content. The next thing you should examine is getting links from sites that have similar content that help legitimize your site to the webcrawlers. Getting your site listed in the DMOZ directory is also quite helpfull. You should also keep your expectations realistic, you are not likely to beat out amazon for common book related search terms for example.

Well most people will recommend the use of search engines such as google or YAHOO of course.\n\nThere you can narrow down your search but still you need to do a lot of looking through the sites.\n\nWhat you might want to be using is a so called Metacrawler\nor Huskysearch\n\nExperiments indicated that a Metacrawler was able to Prune as much as 75% of the returned responses as irrelevant, outdated, or unavailable.\n\nMetacrawler and Huskysearch differ from most search services in that they dont maintain any internal database. Rather, they forwarded your query to multiple search services in parallel and collat the results.\n\nThen theres also something called a grouper.\nA grouper takes the results of HuskySearch and identifies phrases that help you find faster what you were looking for.\n\nTo get started click on the link below that will lead you to a site with most common metacrawlers. The site also inlcudes a description and a rating on those.

I agree with the previous comment, however, why use an uncommon search engine when there are so many good popular ones out there. Google.com, yahoo.com, altavista.com, and ask.com are the best search engines out there, there is no reason to use any sites but these.

I think Yahoo is better because it is free, and you get answers almost instantly.  I have never tried the Google service, but you first have to pay, and then you have to wait for an expert to answer your question.  You are going to get better accuracy, but so far with Yahoo, I would say the answers have been very accurate.

Exactly right, meta-tags are used to create the description search engines display. Here is site explaining how to do it in html: http://searchenginewatch.com/webmasters/article.php/2167931\n. In the yahoo site builder look for any place to put in html code and stick it in there. Unfortuneatly, I'm pretty sure that you might have to request to get your site on the search engine and/or it might take a few months before it shows up.\nGood luck.

Meta tags are used to provide information about a web page such as title, author, and keywords, that are not displayed on the actual page. This information is used by search engines in order to index information about your site. Most search engines now days do not put that much credence in the meta tags instead paying more attention to the actual content on the page.

These are not entirely true.  Site Maps DO help page rank.  Most notably, they provide two advantages.  First, the site map provides a resource for users to find otherwise hidden content.  For instance, a user may reach a 404 error on a page.  Having these errors redirect to the site map will help more users find the content they need on the site.  While Google's techniques are not fully disclosed, the amount of time spent on the site, number of pages, and so on definitely help the rankings.  Nothing is worse in rankings than having an individual access the page and back out.  Google interprets this as a user not finding the content they needed on the page--thus, not pertinent information.\n\nSecond, the site map can help the crawlers or robots search through your site to find the relevant pages.  Just make sure to include a follow link in your meta tags.
