Submitting to 500k search engines and directories 12x/yr

[dogboy]

Years ago we scoffed at SE submission... anything worthwhile would crawl you.

Today I went thru my bulkmail to find an internetseer ad for a company that wanted to submit my site to a half million FFA links, SEs, and directories, 12x a year, for like a nickle or something.

What is the rational behind this? If it immediately got people banned I guess it wouldn't sell(?) or are they just selling cyanide tables as bubble gum?  To be honest, I'm tempted to take a 'fun' site I've been using as a whipping post, and see what the hell happens when I push that button. In fact, I was trying to think up someone I hate so I could use their email address:)

Go test it and let us know if it worked

Yeah, right... let me figure out who that email address belongs to then I'll just submit their site and we'll watch what happens...

It just caught me off guard. Last time I read an ad like that it was for 1000 submissions... But 500k? Thank god the Internet is infinite because if not we would fill it up w crap in less than a week:)

A trick from the guys who use Xrumer - get a list of sites that link to one of your money domains, and throw all the low grade links at them.

Not exactly ethical of course, but they say it works - ahem... I obviously would never do such a thing myself... no.. not me guv.
