How do web pages/url's etc get published on search engines?
In other words, if someone had a small local business or local blog, how would one get it to show up on Yahoo, Google, Bing, etc. when a name is typed in?

It is easy, fast, and free.
You just have to let the search engine robots know about the site so they will go examine it.
There are many ways to do this. Doing them all is good. The easiest is to register your RSS feed with an aggregate service like feedage.com. You can even do it if you don't have an RSS feed. Feedage explains how. FYI: if you have a blue or yellow button at the end of the address bar for the site - you have an RSS. Click on it and copy.
It helps if you have your site set up so it is easy for the Search Engines to figure out what it is all about. You do this by good on-site structure using H1 and H2 tags, a site map, and more.
If you want to get your site listed at the top of the page, then there is a whole lot more stuff you can do.
It is all free. You can pay for some of it. But it can all be done for free.
There is a great course about all this. They talk about it at http://www.searchengineoptimizationtutorialfacts.c...
Hope that helps

They will add you automatically within a time frame of maybe a month if not 3 months. Make your you have a meta description tag since search engines don't touch java and never will (security issues). Set up a sitemap or go to each search site and type add url (yahoo has submit url on the bottom of their page)

All three of the search engines you mentioned have a page where you can submit your site. Check out the links below.

you need to prepare your website with search engine optimization (SEO). The targeted keywords also play an important role to get it to show up on top position on search engine.

You can either pay google/yahoo to make the your name pop up on certain search words.
If you want it to appear on itself on the first pages of google, you would have to be getting many thousand and thousands of hits per day.
