I'm sure everyone else has seen these posts through the forums where someone is offering to submit your domain to a few thousand directorys for a fee. I've become adequate at building my own minisites, enough so that I've even thought of offering it as a service like some of the other members here. I probably won't though since I've got a fair number of my own projects still waiting in the wings. Anyhow I'm positive the point my minisites are substantially lacking in is backlink building. Thats got me thinking about these services which I would normally pass by without even concideration.

Do folks here think these services are worthwhile? How much are they worth? I've tried a few methods of building backlinks, like blog posting ect, but I find them unbearably boring. Who would you use, and why would you choose them? Any good alternatives? I'd like to be able to add 100 - 150 backlinks to each of my minisites.

if you're looking to add 100+ backlinks then one of those services would be your best bet. the other option would be to try and create something that is extremely viral which will cause other people to link to you... unfortunately, that is usually more timely and costly to accomplish.

Another question, what kind of success rate do these directory submissions usually have? I tried to manual submit one of my sites to about 30 directorys a few months ago. (thats all the further I got before I couldn'd tolerate the tedium) I'd have to look for sure, but I don't think I even got a single backlink out of it. In other words if I pay for sumbission in 1000 directorys how many links can I anticipate getting?

I see alot of minisites bieng developed now that I am pretty sure will be dropped names within 1-2 years. They don't have any more value than the parked pages people are replacing with them. I've always thought these directory submission offers and the backlinks they provide were of similarly low value. I don't have any solid proof to back it though, just a gut feeling. I'm kind of wondering what kind of success everyone has had. I'm hoping someone will prove me wrong...

Hi i have to say yes, and,, No.. I just purchased my own script to do bulk submissions, and my traffic has increased ever day. however, google have punished me in serps. I am still up. so i guess its a bit of give and take,

I have also used services like 200 - 500 directories, and managed to get 3-4 backlinks from the lot...
