Inktomi says I am included. but I have 0 hits. And I am
still not in hotbot ect.

Is there a time delay until I am listed in Inktomi s Partners?

You may be in the database, but that doesn't mean you'll get any hits. Is your site optimized to rank high under particular keyword phrases? You pay to be in lots of engines, but the key to getting any traffic is high rankings for highly focused and relevant keyword phrases.

So what's your site optimized to rank high with, and how did you go about optimizing it for those phrases?

It could also be that there is often a time lag between when Positiontech or iNeedHits says you are included in the database and when Ink's partners like HotBot and MSN update their own listings.
