Submitting Your Web Site to Directories ? Automated or Manual Submission?

If you are a beginner in the area of Web sites, you might wonder at the importance placed on submitting websites to directories.

This importance has much to do with getting visitors to your site. If your site is listed under appropriate categories in numerous directories, it could result in far higher levels of visitor traffic to your web site. And this way of getting visitors is one of the less expensive, and more enduring, traffic generation options.

Whereas search engines are constantly crawling the Web looking for new sites, directories do not. They become aware of websites only if someone brings the sites to their notice.

Hence you submit your Web site to directories, to as many good directories as possible.

Automated and Manual Directory Submissions or Semi-Automated?

Your site can be submitted to directories in two major ways ? automatically by software or manually by hand.

There is lot of discussion on the whether automated submissions or manual directory submissions are better. Both have their own pros and cons. Automated submissions reduces cost and increases speed but there are chances of more errors. (But Only BAD softwares!) While manual submissions have more accuracy and user becomes aware about the behavior of all directories and search engines. So accuracy and output counts more than speed.
