Q and A: Where can I find lists of European search engines?
Dear Kalena...
I have a client that is trying to target particular European countries with his travel websites. I have optimized the sites for keyphrases and now I want to submit them to all the search engines I can find in the countries he targets. Do you know where I can find reliable lists of European search engines?
Not in Europe
Kalena's Answer:
Dear "Not in Europe",
You won't need to submit to the spidering search engines like Google or MSN, as they should have already indexed the various sites and will show the relevant domain version to searchers in those countries. But you might want to consider submitting the regional domains to the Yahoo Directory via paid submission. Also, try to submit the sites to as many relevant directories and niche travel sites in those countries as possible. Below are some good sources to start with:
- List of Worldwide Search Engines and Directories
- Pandia Powersearch
- Internet Search Engine Database
- Search Engine Guide Search Engines Directory

You can find major European search engines at http://www.ultimasurf.com
I have a listing over over 2,500 country search engines on my site at:

Another way to find them is to go to Google and search for 'country search engines' or 'regional search engines'
