In the old days of the Internet
(in Internet terms, this is say, four years ago), people would submit their
sites one by one to the various search engines, directories, and link sites.
Later, some smart entrepreneurs developed
services for registering sites for webmasters. Let's face it, how many
of us have the time to submit our sites one by one. "Someone will do it
for me? Great!"
The problem here is that the services
are too expensive for what they offer. Who has $200 to $1000 dollars to
blow on promotion that you're not even sure will work?
Then along came the submission programs.
These promised to make the whole process much simpler and economical for
the webmaster. The problem was that most of the programs were ineffective
or did not submit to many different search engines.
Well times have changed much and there
are now two excellent automated search programs on the market: Global
PromoBot and Submit
Wolf. There are many programs like this on the market, but these are
the only two that I have found to be effective.
Now, don't get me wrong, any submit
program is going to have flaws. Your chances of getting listed in such
sites as Yahoo are pretty slim if you use these programs, but they are
great for about all the rest.
Global
PromoBot submits to more places than Submit
Wolf, and it has a few other interesting features that make it worth
owning: deep submit and mirror page generation.
The deep submit feature (in the pro
version) will look for all of the pages in your site and submit each of
them to the search engines. A pretty handy tool if you're trying to take
advantage of every page in your site. You can even batch submit
several different sites at once. That is, you set up profiles for
several various sites and set the PromoBot loose on them.
Submit
Wolf does not have all of the sexy deep submit, and batch submit features,
but it is expandable to include more sites. The only problem is
that you have to pay for expansion packs if you want more sites.
Global
PromoBot, on the other hand has free unlimited lifetime updates
that increase the number of sites and improve the submission algorithms.
This deals the knock-out blow, in our opinion.
If you're really serious about promotion,
owning one of these is essential (we prefer Global
PromoBot by far - free lifetime updates and an aggressive upgrade plan
is hard to beat). They are reasonably priced and very reliable. Both offer
free trial versions that have some sites disabled, but enough to take the
program for a good spin around the block.
