You don’t need to build your website right away nor wait for it to have a content before submitting it. Why Google, because As of December 2007 it is the most used search engine on the web with a 56.3% market share, ahead of Yahoo! (17.7%) and Live Search (13.8%).

Reason submitting your domain to Google

Getting your domain name on search engines has always taken a long time to be indexed especially for new sites. It would take months before it starts to rank well. Keep in mind never expect that your domain will rank highly in a total of 6 months after submitting your site to Google.

By submitting your domain to Google as soon as you acquire it, you’re establishing a site history even though the site has no content at all. No need to wait until the launch day to submit your site or else it might take a month before you can drive traffic.
