After the change on Google ALG, and ading the activity factor on ranking websites, it will be harder and harder to compete with the first 3 results on the SERPs. because now traffic gives more activity which leads to higher ranking so you need to find a strategy that can increase your traffic by hundreds and build you thausands of backlinks. You can waste your time finding some high PR websites to link to you, or you can build thausands of PR0 and PR1 links. Now my best strategy, and it has put me in the first page of google for my main keyword (page 1 result 7) and it had put some deeper pages as google first result for long tail keywords. The strategy is automated article marketing. but first you need to consider having a wp-blog inside your website if your have a static website. second you need to have a service that publish your article automatically to blogs not only directories. and finally you must consider press release, at least the free PR. now here is some great article marketing services and tools you can use with a list of article directories.

Rubbish!!! No tool works!!! Just manual submissions show good result. SEO is same as before, SEO has not changed google has made changes in their algos....they have not don it tell users to use tools to get on top of SE. You do good work and you get#1
I agree with Nancy for 100% You can do it manually but be honest how far can you go walking while others are driving very fast cars??? To compete with top webmasters you need not only to do what they are doing, but to do more, fast within the 12 hourse you are spending online. and by the way, Google did make a huge change on it's algorithm, and it's very different now. the last update was on 05/2010. and you must know about it.
I agree with Nancy & OnlineSEOExpert - that kind of tools is a waste of money. BTW, read the FAQ - this is not the correct forum to sell your stuff.
