    I would not waste the money.

    You should ask them for a list of the 54,000 directories they submit to.

    Also what is the point in them submitting your site twice??

    I was wondering about the "200 extra pages especially designed for your website, for better search engine exposure." part.Any idea how this works?

    They all give you more junk than good links.

    For the main search engines, the new "trick" is to let the search engines find you. Don't submit your site using their submit form. Posting in forums and blogs will get you listed faster and give you an immediate link. An active forum like this is probably spidered every night by all good search engines.

    For directories, hand submit. Look around this forum and you will see that a common questions is... "Why is site A so much higher in the actual listing pages than my site?" "I have three times the links."

    The answer is that site A has better links. One link on cnn.com will give you better ranking than 50,000 directories any day. Of course, getting cnn.com is not easy. However, you can get good ranking from a dozen good and relevant directories and it doesn't take long to find a dozen good and relevant directories and hand submit to them.

    It's just a bit of time spent as opposed to time and money.

    Hi,

    I used the special Marketing Plan offer(50% off). With it, I'm listed in 150,000, submitted 3 times in 6 months plus other stuff.

    I got the 30 pages analysis with many SEO tips
    $50 pay per click from them on their search engine
    50 extra pages(new folder of keyword generated pages for my site). They wanted access to my site but refused and added the pages myself.

    And one more thing... spam :( Some could be help with a filters.

    It took a 8-10 days to get started but the service by email was ok over the 3 days.

    When I submitted my new download site 1coolfile.com, I used ineedhits.com. It will be submitted to 300 major sites for 12 months. I did disable the auto-renew. It cost me $24US/year(20% off). I should had taken 6 months instead to make sure that I'm included if the minor SE did not find my site by then.

    Of course, it better to be found out like JD mentioned.

    You can do it with Google in a few days. See how on my blog:
