i came across this free diretory submission site called onewaytextlink.com. they have a big list of free and paid directory sites that you can use, but they also claim to submit to all the free ones, which in return you have to put a link on your site.(and since each time you try to use the service the link is for difr site, i would say is their advertisers or their ppc ads) anybody ever used it? if so, whats the result if any at all? thanks you so much in advance.
I'd rather do it manually if you ask me. But if you're really curious, oyu can try making a sample blog and submit it there. Just monitor the results after if it did helped.
I would rather create relevant themed links from authority sites that have a chance of bringing in real traffic in their own right.
They won't submit your site, you have to submit the site on your own. The list can be used to 'track submissions'. I have a similar tool in my SIG too. You might want to give it a try.
