This is pretty accurate... if you create a new website and even seed 1 link, you can get indexed pretty quickly. The engines will spider the site after that, so there's no need to submit every page.

For troublesome sites, you could submit a sitemap XML file, but it's still no guarantee - just a roadmap for the engines.
