I definitely recommend that you don't waste your time submitting your site to search engines -- defintely make sure you don't stuff a ton of keywords in your meta keywords and description tag.

As a matter of fact, those tags won't help your site's ranking at all.

As the other posters said, content is the main key. Once you have that, the other key -- backlinks -- will be much easier. Other webmasters are more inclined to link to great content than to a site that has nothing.

I also recommend adding a blog to your site, submitting the RSS feed to blog directories and then blogging about your business and your industry on a regular basis.

Your goal in doing this is to show that you are an expert in your industry, someone that others will want to look to and buy from. This will help generate word of mouth promotions as well as an increase in yoru search engine ranking.
