Is there a decent piece of software out there that will submit my articles to directories? Or is it better to simply log in and do it manually each time? thanks guys, M
Submitting 12 original and completely different articles to 12 different quality directories, therefore gaining 12 good quality links, is always better than 100 mediocre links - submit by hand is best - until you get so sick of it you don't care. Then maybe software MIGHT be a way forward. However, beware duplicate content.
There is a thingy called ArticleSubmitter that claims to submit to a bunch of Articles websites at submitesuite.com I have never tried myself tho.
Most article submission softwares are not reliable, you will achieve the best results with manual submission. However, manual submission is time consuming, so if you do not wish to do it yourself you can pay someone to do it for you.
You should try submitting your articles to articles distribution service such as: ezinearticles, isnare, or thephantomwriter. Your articles would be distributed to the network itself, so i think it's better than submitting manually.
My friend you are a fool. That is not Black Hat SEO at all. Automation is called being efficient. Black Hat SEO is so far beyond article directory spamming it's not even funny. By your logic every time you look up pagerank not using Google Toolbar, or try to find your SERPS ranking via the DP tools or even the Rank Checker FF plugin by Aaron Wall, you're doing Blackhat SEO. What a joke. In the future, don't mention Blackhat SEO until you get a dozen sites banned and Google starts to hate you. Otherwise, you're just blowing smoke.
