    Does anyone use seo software? If so which program do you use? Does it compare to manual optimization?

    there is no SEO software that will do a 100% automated job for you, even and since seo is 90% about Links no software will get you those links, so its a manual thing since u are going to exchange,buy,search these links.

    Not really 90% every search engine has different percentages, and MSN and Yahoo! are not 90%, much lower.

    I'd use XsitePro to make the site SEO friendly. I would also do some keyword research with Keyword Elite and focus on long tail keywords. I also use SEO Elite to track my progress and find potential link partners. But the best links come from press releases since the anchor text is typically reproduced on high PR and high traffic sites.

    Good Luck

    You should combine both of them.

    1. You may use IBP software to analyzer your on-page optimization to make your page well-optimized before bots come.
    2. You should use AI Roboform to help you submit your site to directory. It's an auto form-filled software that you can customize your own fields. This process is semi-auto because you have to enter site by yourself before submit them. I do not want to recommend any automate directory submission software because most of them won't work.
    3. If you want to submit your article to get one-way link, I suggest you use iSnare article distributor. I tried it and works great for me. It may not as good as a manual submission but it saves your time a much lot compared to submit them manually.
    4. If you want to create link exchange I suggest you to use directory script like phplinkdirectory or site-sift to create your own link exchange page instead of using web services.
    5. You may use SEO Elite to analyze your site ranking and find some link potential link partner and mail them manually by yourself.
    6. You may use Keyword Elite to find your own profit keywords and make site following those keywords.

    manual every time. How can software build links? Optimizing your website is the easy bit so software is not needed.

    As discussed, SEO software simplifies the process of SEO. It is used for different purposes starting from keyword research to monitoring of the site. I prefer to use SEO Elite and Keyword Elite combinedly.

    Better stick to manual SEO as you will know what you are doing and also can keep track of what technics gives you good ranking.

    Using software to automate certain tasks can save time, but most of the software functions in these products can be found - for free - online or with free / open source software. I would give links, but don't have enough posts for that yet... :(

    Off and on, yes. The tools I use are the ones provided by http://www.submitnet.net and http://www.hypersubmit.net.

    These tools are useful, but they are never a substitute for good, intelligent SEO practices.

    Automated submission is for newbies and if you are strong in SEO then you can make it manually.Just build links the more you do more you will get uniques
