Yes those pages either were hand picked by infoseek (the 100%) ones or
they have tons of other sites that link to them that it boosts them.

I still can't get many pages to stay listed, they stick till about 9-10:30pm PST then drop.

But some domains stay, I used 30 domains and currently have 1 good listing.

I would say spend your time on another engine since they really don't want people to submit their sites to them any longer.

>When I do a search for my keywords on Infoseek, certain pages (not mine) show up in the top 10 that are really old -- like, from 1995-6.

>I resubmitted them to see if they would stay in the top 10 if re-spidered. Guess what? After resubmitting them every other day for the last 10 days, they have *never* been re-spidered by Infoseek.

>Anyone have any idea what's going on? Infoseek always used to be quick about this...
