    Maybe this belongs to trade section but there I would be hammered by people who do automatic stuff and who have no idea about directories so I will post here.

    I am looking for someone who is experienced in promoting a directory.
    Generally to submit it to directory lists and directories of directories.
    And I am open to any other white hat suggestions.
    PM me with what you can accomplish and how much would you charge.

    You need to contact dotcompals or mikey1090 for this as both provide good service in manual submissions.

    DON.

    Agree 100 percent...do yourself a favor and contract one of them. I don't know anything about mikey1090 but dotcompals has been used by many major players with success. dotcompals operates in India, labor is cheap and in most case educated. When they finish your gonna like the way you look.

    Thats right. I provide directory submissions that are done manually. Our list contains decent directories that give a high approval rate.

    Mikey started his submissions service less than 15 days ago while dotcompals have been in this business for a long time. I agree that Mikey has been VERY active on the forum for the whole year.

    I provide directory submission services myself but we are just comparing the two guys so I would say dotcompals looks more experienced in this business.

    No what he is saying is that dotcompals hires actual "educated people" that can perform the work needed to clients satisfaction.
    This basically means that they can read,write and be smart enough to find the closest category pertinent that sites theme unlike the
    others that just spam it wherever then take the money (chump change) and run. ;)

    thx

    I disagree, there are others Good submitters who are EDUCATED and have KNOWLEDGE about submissions other than dotcompals. You can't say others cause it feels like all the submitters here in DP are doing crappy works than the team you are referring. I know dotcompals are old and they produce very high quality. But others can provide the same quality.

    Just wanted to let you know.

    Thanks

    DigitalDuke: You are right in saying that that are other people who can promote directories better. dotcompals and mikey were being discussed because someone said their name early responses :)

    Let's not get into education background of DP members. :))

    How did this become a discussion of who is more qualified? Some things never change around here. Anyway, I am sure they both do great work and promoting one yourself is not hard work. Like mentioned above, you could run a 1 month promoter campaign for starters.

    Then slowly invest more in promotion as times wears on. None of it happens overnight.

    Probably out of desperation to make money. I don't need to and have no affiliateship with this mikey.

    @Malcolm; Thanks for the input, I know full well what he meant and the truth of the matter is nobody on here really has a clue who each other is.

    @jitendraag; Great post, you can have as many qualifications as you want (I have) it doesn't mean you know anything about SEO. Education proper counts for nothing on the internet, I hold no qualifications relevant to the internet but I bet I'll give those who do a run for their money.

    Promoting a web directory in some few free directories is the most weak way of promotion, if you can call it a promotion anyway.

    It would be better if you do it yourself.

    The budget for making a big established is no less than 5k$ on start and there on xxx every month.

    Search forums, ask people for ideas, test the system yourself to understand it better.

    And for submission service, use the services section of dp a lot of old established directory submission service are running.

    Remember those who are already established in this industry have real no time to establish directories for others. And those who are not themselves established, what will they establish you. :rolleyes:
