You can try IPB (iBusinessPromoter). This software is really good for directory submission. It also support many features about SEO. Try it out !
Here is my opinion: 1. Manual Submit: 2. SubmitEaze: 3. Fast Directory Submitter: 4. Digixmas Submitter: Note: I'm from digixmas!
Try Manual Submissin, you can hair some one to do it manually, software submission can harm your site
Human itself? It's true - for some directories. But for the most cases will be suitable good software. Eventually human work it's a lot of wasted time and money. If there is a possibility to use software - I'll use this opportunity. P.S. I work with special custom developed software. And succesfully use it for sites submission.
I also use SEO Fast Submission, Directory Submitter Gold, and one more paid version I forget who its from, but they work for what I need to do.
I think the people that say "submit yourself" are being a little naive and don't really understand how the internet works. All a web browser does is interpret HTML and display it. When you submit your website it's simply posting data back over HTTP. Basically all the directory submission software is doing is working as a web browser; it connects to a URL, processes the HTML it gets back from a website, and posts data back (the submission details) - the end result is EXACTLY the same whether you've used submission software or typed it manually. Submitting manually is not "better quality" as some here seem to believe. Also, if you're paying people to submit your webiste then you're just paying them to use this software. If you think they're sat there typing your details into every directory then you're kidding yourself. You might as well just buy the software and do it yourself. I personally hate it when people get rich from doing something I can do myself, so I bought submiteaze and have had fantastic results with it for submitting websites details and articles.
Not quite, i doubt that submission software can find a suitable category if the first suitable category is not found and probably starts to stutter if the expectation of the software is interrupted in some way. Submitting manually is done by a human, often with a form filler, if something goes wrong during a submission then at least theres a human there to see this and something can be done about that. Again not true, ive been paid to submit for others and i used no software submitter, i used a form filler, and the special request that i had would not of enabled me to use software for this, and provide the separate report that i did. I actually sat there and did the submissions for the mentioned above, it took me about a day and a half, something like that, i stopped all of my other work to do that job. Hmm, im not sure that submission software works as a browser, maybe im misunderstanding that, maybe my knowledge is too limited, but i know its not the same as a manual submission.
