Ask.com is different from google , yahoo & MSN, there is no site submission link available as far as I knew.
How can I add my site to ask.com? Please help!
please share your experience that how you manage to have your site be added in ask.com.

"Ask utilizes Web crawlers to collect raw data and gather information that is used in building our ever-expanding search index. Crawling ensures that the information in our results is as up-to-date and relevant as it can possibly be. Our crawlers are well designed and professionally operated, providing an invaluable service that is in accordance with search industry standards."
But in the past, you were able to do paid inclusion, that is no longer available. But as Ask.com says, they do want to find new pages during the normal crawl process.

Don't worry about it, it would automatically index your site. Ask based its result from Google. Targeting Google means targeting other Google based search engines.

almost 50% of my traffic is from ask.com...I didn't add my blog..I just received traffic from them I didn't know why. But I'm happy because my site is 2nd on their first page.

I think you can always submit your site but it should be registered first before you can post.

Your site will be automatically crawled so don't bother to submit it once again.
Teoma technology...

Ask uses a Teoma algorithm which is also know as ExpertRank.
You can no longer submit your site directly to Ask, it uses links from external pages to find your site. It is capable of following href, source links and redirects.
It does however support the open-format sitemap protocol as long as you have the auto discovery directive to the robots txt file.
You can submit the site map to ping, found at site maps dot org.
Enjoy!
