    Don't talk about what you don't know. If I submitted to 500 directories you say I will get no less then 300 e-mails? if you can't prove it don't say anything go back to school and start learning something.

    I prefer doing it myself so I can change the copy and anchor text to promote other keywords.

    Yes, some websites do not send email confirmation and approvals need to be checked yourself by finding your link in these directories.

    That's the problem with submission services, you simply can't prove if the work has been done or not which is why people should be very careful when choosing them. Just because a person can't prove the submission service is a liar doesn't automatically mean they aren't either. I know my garage never changed my oil filter when they last serviced my car but I can't prove it.

    It's a tough call to make accusing someone and I'd only do it if I felt I believed strongly enough I was right.

    Screenshots are the best way to sort out such issues.

    Also Raj_Kumar, it all comes down to the list being used. Submitting to this list will generate about 1000 emails, but to the directorycritic.com list hardly 300 although they are both of similar size.

    20 mails is indeed not much.

    But it's true that many sites don't
    send an email.

    however ...

    If you have doubts of that your site is submitted,
    then try to submit your site again in a few directories.

    Mostly you can't add your site anymore,
    because you will see something like this:

    "The title/url is not unique in the directory"

    Greetings

    Jason ;)

    I am glad your money was refunded cheaptraffic. Providers that sell these services where you only receive 20 emails are scam artists. They want the easy money!!! I can give anyone fake screen shots of submissions and state any claim.

    Most new members don't know the difference that is why we need to help them out when there are scams. For your information, paypal frowns upon refunds for services. It is easier to get them back for physical products broken or not received. Fraudsters know this , thus members have to complain loudly so it is recorded.

    I have gotten refunds for services by talking to Paypal fraud unit. They know there are new competitors for payment gateways like google and CO2 etc so they want to get the payers happy.

    Of course electrojohn1, it's so much easier to make fake screenshots of submissions than to actually have your work done to "scam" you for $50, right? :rolleyes: </sarcasm>

    Since my free directory list was mentioned in this thread, I'll chime in with my two cents...

    Many directory submission customers in Webmaster forums want to submit to high pr free directories. That's fine, but these customers need to realize many of these high pr free directories will accept submissions and review few, if any, of them. Of those that review free submissions, expect it to take months to review your submissions.

    Why is it that so many high pr free directories don't send out confirmation E-mails? The answer is simple. Many of those submissions are simply deleted, and some of these directory owners don't want to advertise they are deleting free directory submissions. The reason for this is simple. A link on a free directory list can send them thousands of visitors per month. Get on a few good directory lists, and they will get good Alexa and Compete traffic ranks just from a few listings. That makes selling featured/paid links much easier.

    I also provide a directory submission service, but it's not advertised on any Webmaster forum. My clients know little about pr and pay a premium for my service.

    A customer pays for submissions, and no guarantees are offered that a site will be accepted. But when customers try to go down the high pr directory path, it will come with a price of less listings. Unless it's at the DMOZ or Yahoo Directory (non profits), I don't submit to high pr free directories at all. That's what featured and express review submissions are for. :)

    The truth is that submitting to a pr 0 directory will most likely list you much faster then a pr 3+ directory. In fact, that pr 0 directory will probably become a pr 3 directory before many of the high pr directories ever review your link.

    eXe has quite a reputation, with 270+ iTraders, and there is nothing out of the ordinary in this thread to make me think he shaved submissions or would not make good on the customer's concerns. In fact, the low number of E-mail confirmations suggests he did submit to a high pr list.

    In your case YES, Why would we want to fill all those 500 PR 4+ directories up especially if you have a vested interest in them?

    Thanks for the link tedsewely. At least I'll know it was done.

    What vested interest are you referring to? Your statements make less & less sense with each post.

    DebtDoc is referring to a conversation we (me and him) had about a completely different offer. I will be posting the PM transcripts of that shortly in that thread. I ask again, where in the thread is it stated that I own the directories?
