Need a small motor that can be used for moving my robots

hi everyone,

i bought 2 motors robotshop: http://www.robotshop.com/en/solarbotics-regular-pager-motor-rpm2.html , both pager motors small robots (5 x 7 centimeters) , soldering solid core wire easy breadboard use, , wire snapped off motor, , can't power in way. also, found no wheel can fit on shaft of motor, , i've tried making own adapter , trying connect them. i'm reluctant use these small motors. want know if small robot mine can use servos, or if there other small motors out there can used small robots mine.

i don't know dc motors, there many choose from, search.
and yes, use continuous-rotation servos. that's how power robot car. found seller here in australia sells continuous-rotation servos wheels fit output shaft. (pic attached.)
if search on internet, i'm sure you'll find similar in part of world.
(servos might bit big application though. car 250mm long.)
