Using a directory submission service?? Beware!

    Hi Friends,

    This is just a friendly message to all my DP members and friends.

    Friends I recently used someone's service and that dude used a automatic script and submitted my site to all crap directories.

    I request all members to verify the submission service you are using. Kindly don't go for people offering cheap submission services.

    I went for someone elses submission service, reason: "cheap" service.. and ended in not getting my money back and my order not being completed properly.

    Plz check the submission providers "reputation" , "feedback" & "approval rate".

    Who was it?

    These threads are useless if you don't say who did this, since users will continue to use his crappy service.

    Yes we do check but, if you can not mention the name of the person it is useless to start a new thread.

    fryman, there isn't any need to post name.

    reason: imagine someone will submitted to 100-200 Dir for just 5-6$ ? Who will spend so much time for so less money. (One can understand who many people are doing this)

    People must be wise enoguh and now understand, better pay more and use a service that's geniune.

    I was "fool" to go for cheap service.

    I will mention the name.. only give me a little more time.

    Could not have been me. I only have very good feedback. My services are very cheap. But I work hard to get the submissions done right.

    One of the things I love about this forum is that any scammer soon gets exposed and kicked out by the community.

    Last thing we need is to start hiding their identities. You do something wrong, you are out of here. This isn't sitepoint.

    sigh, same here, last time I use one dude's service for 100 directory. From all of them I get like 40 emails, so it looks like the rest of the directory either does not email me or he "forget" to submit to them... sigh... I think I'd do it all myself.

    It will come naturally!! Amit has been around here for long and many people have enjoyed his service.

    You still can do the same. Building trust among the customers is the most important thing.

    I always suggest manual submission, as do many others here, i know its time consuming but the old sayings of, if you want a job done properly... and if it seems too good to be true...

    Ive seen rates from people offering submission services where its so low there is no way they could be genuinely doing it as they promise.

    Sorry to hear of your bad experience by the way. :(

    I also used two different guys for submissions.
    it was for 150 submissions but got less than 50 emails in total (for both - that website was submitted and if it was accepted). I think that I will start submitting my self, because with these guys you can never know if they submitted to all or not. And they probably don't submit to all, because there is no way that we can check. Also, I have not noticed any link back change since the submissions, maybe 5-10 links more... so it's pretty useless in my oppinion. Got 5-10 links out of "150 submissions".
