    Kanu, good links list.
    A couple of questions/comments:
    1. You listed dmoz.org three times. Did you intend it that way?
    2. The limited knowledge of search engines I have, tells me that most of the "secondary" SEs pull their data from the primary once: Yahoo, Google and MSN. Wouldn't submitting to the primary once cover all the basis?

    I just had a similar thought about leaving card with a tip.

    Is this considered "good etiquette" to do so?

    Not at all.

    When you have an online business, you should take every opportunity to expose people to it.

    Business cards are a must. If you do any kind of interaction with people.

    Heck, when I leave a tip at a restaurant, I leave my card. They may not need our services, but may run into someone that does and remember us to recommend.

    Letterhead, receipts, everything should have your web address on it. Especially print ads.
