How to find my site with a search engine

Hey All,
I have tried over and over to search for my site: www.sol-rise.com
with yahoo, google, webcrawler and others using the key work “sol-rise” and my site still isn’t at the top of the list. Does anyone know how I can get my site to be read by these search engines besides paying them tons of money.

I am using a friends server space to host my site using masked forwarding to www.surgedesign.com/solrise. Does that impact it any. thanks in advance for any help!

peace

You know that you don’t have any keywords or descriptions in your META tags in your HTML? I think you need those there. I also know with cloaked redirection, there is a space from the redirection site to enter in more META info from there. I do them both. Then, check this out:

btw - it usually takes traffic to your site and time too.

Good luck!!

and links !!!
ask a lot of people to link to your page and work vice versa, make sur all your pages are linked togethet with back forward buttons, and of course fill in you meta tags… that should be it…
