Do I have to do anything to get the search engines to find my new site?

You need to do something known as SEO. which stands for
search engine optimization, which is just another way of saying
search engine friendly. search engine companies send robots
to "spider" your website (collect data from your site) . There
are books available on this topic. Try creative commons.com
see if they have any books available. Do a google search on
free books. There is a site called "project Gutenberg" I'm
not sure if the suffix is .org, or .com, anyway they have about ten thousand free books. Basically you want to stick to the
theme or niche of your site, trying to keep it as informative
as possible. You also need to learn to copyright. For this
go to a site called http://www.newbieclub.com/index.php?
Join(it takes to seconds) then look for the free ebooks and
download a copy of "scientific advertising" by Claude Hopkins. Anyone who is anybody when it comes to copy-
writing has read this book. Read It! Good Luck....

Like someone previously posted you have to optimize your site for the search engines or SEO for short.
For example one of my clients is The Computer Dude
http://thecomputerdude2007.blogspot.com
Now his blog has only been up for the last month but someone did a search for "Computer Dude" and his blog showed up on page one of Google's search engine results - which I'm assuming is what you want YOUR site to do - show up on as high a google search result as possible.
You have to decide what keywords you want your site to be associated with and then you incorporate those keywords into your site.
Of course there is always the option of paying the search engines so that your site always appears on top.
A lot of search engines also have it where you can manually add your site to their search engines but doing this doesn't let your site in the search engines immediatly - you have to give it some time.

You usually have to pay for that. The more you pay the more exposure you get.
