Thank you so much Ryan, that are nice links.

I have one more question, Automatic directory submission is really useful or not?

**Ryan** · #4 (**permalink**) 24-12-2005, 08:33

Automated submissions tool may not be much helpful for your website hosting as far as Search Engine Optimization is concerned. If you're thinking of something that automatically submits your website hosting to search engines then it's pretty useless. The search engines will find your website hosting and submitting to them really isn't going to help.

You really can't submit automatically to directories since most have slightly different forms to fill out. You'd also want to make modifications to the title and description you submit to each directory depending on what kind of directory each is.

Another great automatic directory submission tool is 4DL.info

It offers a free submission to 200 web directories. All is 100% automated (it breaks captcha codes), it has a smart category choosing algorithm and it doesn't require software installation.

You can use unlimited titles and descriptions with the help of {title1|title2} operators.

4DL.info has different submission packages and a great affiliate program. After submitting your website you will get a pdf and html submission report.

Try the automatic directory submitter !

Manual Directory Submissions are always considered to be a better option in comparison to the Directory submissions done via Automatic scripts/submitters etc. The reason for this is the fact that most of Directory submissions done by this method are not successful and are not completed. Hence, it is always better to do the Directory submissions manually which will give you better results.

I agree. With manual submission you have more control about which directories to submit in and therefore there are more chances of being accepted and indexed. It however involves too much time and effort in manually submitting your website to the directories one by one.

Yes, I agree with Catherine and Jenifer.
There are many web users who use automated submission software and try to trick and get round the search engines however SEs make their rules and we are tied to accept them. If at all the number of links gained by manual submission is less as compared to automated directory submissions, we are sure that they all are submitted correctly and at a steady pace.

Certainly, Automatic Directory Submissions are mostly rejected and also most of the Applications and Software's for Automatic Directory submissions are expensive and are not Reliable enough. Also, if the Directory submissions are done Manually, you can select the Proper Categories according to your Niche as the Categories to which your website is submitted also makes an effect on your Search Engine Rankings.

I completely agree with you guys, manual submission is always recommended by the directories itself. Also, in some directories there are many different fields which needs to fill manually, that automatic submitters can't do as the information is limited in the automated software's. Also, via automated software's you will be able to submit only those sites which are feeded in that software. So, manual submission is always good for positive results.

Manual directory submission is the best solution for proper results, as you can take care when you are filling up the submission form and selecting correct category, as selection of correct category for directory submission is the most important point where we should never go wrong for expected results. And directories are taking around 2 to 3 months for approval of submission so there may be loss of time aswell.

Well, I think this is the case with only Manual Directory Submission. So do you mean that we shall consider Automated Directory Submissions to save time?

According to me, getting the links confirmed is important rather than saving time. Isn't it?

Hey Merrick, "Time is Money". So I think you should always try to save your time. But, I also agree with you that to get the confirmed links is important as that will help to get the Page Ranking increased.

Oh! Thanks, John! I didn't know that "Time is Money"

Yes getting link approved not only helps you to increase Page Ranking but also it provides you many backlinks. Your link is approved that also mean that the content of your site is quality content.

**Ryan** · #15 (**permalink**) 06-04-2009, 20:15

As far as time is concerned, manual directory submissions only take up a few minutes if you do it on a daily basis. Having said that, you need to determine the actual number you are going to submit to daily. 15-20 submissions a day shouldn't take too much of your time and it's certainly worth the effort.

Well, if you both really want to save time and avoid mistakes then i suggest you opt for paid submissions manually. It will definitely save your time and the submissions will be accepted in less than 24 hrs.

**Catherine** · #17 (**permalink**) 06-04-2009, 23:19

Correct. It is better to submit your links into 15-20 Directories on a Daily basis rather than submitting your links into 200-300 Directories in a Month at the same time. It is also observed that if the link is submitted on a Daily basis in some directories, it has a better effect on the Search engine rankings in comparison to the link submitted at once in many directories.

I think if you submit your site to the directory which is a spam, it may give a negative effect to your site. I agree with manual submission which you can filter directory sites by yourself.

If you really want to pay for auto submission, you should be carefully when you choose one.

**paul** · #19 (**permalink**) 13-04-2009, 09:06

I agree with manual submission, you can be able to submit your site in proper category and emphasis on other Search Engine Optimization factors during submission. Also if you go for regional directory submission, it can give you more leverage to your local and regional market.

**Merrick** · #20 (**permalink**) 13-04-2009, 14:20

Yes indeed, submission to the local directory will give you more leverage to your local and regional market. However if your website is an international website or you are in international market then you should keep submitting your website to .com or any other domain which is not local. This will help you to bring international traffic to your website.
