Semi Automatic Submission Tool

1 comment Posted by Norhafidz

I wander on a webmaster forum today hoping to disclose some ads deals. I got a couple of deals and also offering some jobs to coders and designers for my new projects. At the end of the day, I ended up discovering and landed on a new semi automatic directory submission tool website. Submitting your blog to web directories is important, I did mention it on many of my posts on how important this actions were, especially on SEO off page optimization. In fact, It was one of the contributing factors which lead to the increment of my PageRank. But doing it manually is a great pain, That’s why a semi automic submission tool is a healer. Back to the tool, it is called SubmitterBot - “semi automatic directory submission tool.”

How Semi Automatic Directory Submission Tool Works?

They work similar to how you submit your blog manually, a slight different is that you don’t have to type in the informations about your blog repeatedly. You just need to type in the informations once and they will remain on your profile unless you change it. The list of web directories are also provided by the website. All you need to do is choose which category suit your blog and entering captcha.

They have a wonderful website, I don’t have any comments on the way they look. They look smooth and sleek. Well, this isn’t a free tool though, you are require to pay for your site to be accepted. And the payment process involves points. The points determine the total number of your websites. It is used to purchase spots. The more points you have, the more spots available for your site.

The rate is $1.99 per credit. It is still way cheaper than most of similar services provider. Take note, the only thing involve credit is when you need to add a website/blog not the submission to directories process.

What a Sweet SubmitterBot

Though their services are not entirely free, they are giving you a point after registration process is completed, which enable you to add a website or a blog to submit to their huge list of directories. So, they are giving you a chance to try out their tool so that you can have the real experience before deciding to buy credits.

I personally have tried their tool and were happy with the outcomes. Time is an important factor, by using this tool, I managed to cut a lot of times and use it for other purposes. Since submitting your blog manually to these directories is quite a tiring job, I would suggest you to take this tool into consideration in promoting your blogs and yourselves.

Should you have any questions about this tool, there’s a lot of questions and answers to read at their FAQ page.

Free Web Directories - #3

no comment Posted by Norhafidz

Some people argue that this is not the best way of marketing your website online. Submitting to directories will not unveil your presence to the blogosphere. According to them, your website will not be visible unless that directories is popular. But, for me, it is not about the directories, it’s about the link you’ll get which can improve your ranking on search engines. Getting one way link is very important in search engine optimization. They called it off page optimization strategy.

Quality Links

IMO, getting listed in high PR directories will not bring you the juice of that entire PR. Because, your website, if accepted will be assign to a new page, which may not have PR. So, according to Google, that link will be less quality because of less PageRank. So, make sure that the sub pages may also develop PR in the long run. Here’s a list of some of directories I used to submit my blog.

If this is your first visit, please look at my #1 batch of free quality web directories and #2 batch of free quality web directories. More and more free and quality web directories will be reveal in the next posts.

Free Quality Web Directory - #1

2 comments Posted by Norhafidz

Submitting your website to web directories is a good way of acquiring one way link to your blog. In SEO these days, one way link is more important than 2-way links. That is why exchanging links is not very popular right now. The impact (on Google SERP) will be huge if those directories are good in quality (high in PageRank). Here are some of the directories I use to submit my blog:

1) eSiq Directory - PR4

2) Trunek Directory - PR4

3) RL Directory - PR3

4) Yhay Directory - PR3

5) Wisob Directory - PR3

These are just some of directories I use to ‘market’ my blog, there are thousands more and I’ll update it in the next post.
