This question comes up all the time, and there really is no definite right
way, or sneaky method...well there are sneaky methods, but they can
potentially get you banned form search engines (or so I've heard).  You
pretty much need a good website, that others actually want to search for,
and you need good content.  If there was a easy way to just get top
positioning on Search Engines then every Google results page would be
cluttered with porn links, and the such.  You will find a archive of past
discussions on this very topic if you go here:

javascript:term=prompt('Search%20thelist%20Archives:');if(term!=null){locati
on='http://www.google.com/search?as_q='+term+'&as_sitesearch=lists.evolt.org
&safe=on&submit=Go';}

...and type Search Engine Optimization in the search field that appears.
