Well I write this article about this service that many websites offers around the net. Is it true or just a myth or just a way to still your money? I really believe that is just a way to loose a large sum of your income and they dont offer you what the promise. I often see in their offers something like:

“Submit your website to hundreds of search engines, directories and links pages. Our trained staff will review your website and provide you with recommendations to improve it for better search engine rankings”

And they ask a small amount of money like 20-30$, its not big enough not to give a try and lots of people try it but with no real effect in their site. If their is a change it will be after some months and you are not going to find out if the change was linked to this buy anyway, also if nothing happens will forget it soon enough and someone else will fall in this trap too.

I tried Submitexpress.com and i just lost my money. A user also told me from stumbleupon the same things. The bottom line is this and i strongly advice you not to invest in this kind of efforts but in Seo. Buy a good book from amazon, put some meta tags, titles, bolds etc and your articles and you will earn quickly and without cost what this sites offer you.
