Bingo.  You are correct, and I am sure of that.  What you do is submit
your site by asking "what's that site running".  Do it every week for as
long as you want your site in the index. Then bask in the beauty of
those wacky uptime graphs - impress your friends and family!

Basically, their own documentation states that they only count sites
that are submitted and are actively re-submitted.  I did it only once,
and within a month or two I disappeared into the ethereal vapors of
cyberspace...

Aaaaiiieee!

But thast's OK, as I have no /home right now. (sniff)
