    Is manual submission really better? The answer is YES, in some cases. If you're going to submit to directory sites like Yahoo, or Open Directory then we have always recommended you do this manually. The reasons are explained in our Directory Submission Guide in WebPosition Gold's Submitter.
    On the other hand, if you're submitting to a full-text search engine like AltaVista, HotBot, or Google.com, then automated submissions will save you valuable time. In the past, automated submitters fell into disfavor because they did not emulate a browser when they submitted.

    Some people believe most of the time, the article directories don’t know you are using automated submission software.

    While others believe those submission softwares are of waste of money and time, and they don’t do any good to your rankings. These don't target the keywords, rather you can go manual submission where you will know exactly what you wana do.:xwink:

    Maybe using semi-manual techniques?

    Autofill Forms add-on of Firefox is what I use to submit to directories. It allows you to create reusable site profiles that can be instantly filled out to directory submission forms. Just a few clicks can result in a manual submission. Don't know if that'd be classified as automated, but it's much more efficient.

    manual is better I think because you can better answer questions that automated may miss out on or fill out incorrectly.

    that is actually true you don't know if the article you submit using software for automatic submissions will actually publish. for me do it manually will see the results well.

    My only fear with auto submit is that google will ban you. I try to stay away from programs like SEONuke for only that reason.

    The answer is that manual submissions and automated submissions are BOTH good...the key is knowing where to use each..in most cases manual submission will always be better to put a personal touch and make sure it gets submitted and indexed correctly but who has the time to do that constantly...

    Find out where you can submit automatically and use a program for those specific submissions sites and then on the others use manual submission...

    Inherently the sites where automatic submission was possible I would assume that the quality of the links from the site will be lower because they are diluted by other people doing automatic submission...with manual submission there will still be dilution but I believe the quality of your submission content will be much better.

    USE BOTH AND KNOW WHERE TO USE EACH

    Yes, I agree that manual submissions are more effective and accurate than automated. In automated submission you are not sure if your website is really submitted in the directory.

    Some people want to auto directory submission but its not good when you do manually submission you get it conformation mail and when your submission approved then you can check it.

    even though manual submission is time consuming it is far more better than an auto submissions because an auto submissions can lead to spam :)

    Auto submission is just good for some people who do submission service as it is fast. It will get errors sometimes!
    Manual submission is good for people who want to concentrate on their own sites. It is good but slow!

    I think manual submitting is always better than automation jobs, especially right for article submission. :)

    Yes i agree with this. Manual directory submission is always better automated submission. In terms of automated submissions there may chances for spamming.
