The Search Engine Submission Service Scam

In today’s world we have seen it all. You know the ones that I am talking about IE. Your site number 1 in Google or Yahoo, We will get you listed, We will make sure you show up on the first page of any search engine, etc.

With opening lines like above and the competitive SEO services, it is often very difficult to separate the bread from the butter. Many SEO service providers out in the market have no intention what so ever of doing anything more than taking your hard earned money from you by playing on your large desire to bring more traffic to your website.

It is getting very difficult for the average person to know what SEO company is legitimate and who is not. So how do you know who is really going to make an effort to optimize your website for better rankings? There are many signs. The biggest sign of them all is the great Search Engine Submission Service.

Please do not be fooled by these people as these services are completely worthless. Let’s take a walk together through the concept behind submitting so you can see that these services are a waste of time and money.

  1. I don’t care what they say. There are not millions of search engines.Who do you use the most when it comes to search engines? Chances are that’s what most other people are using as well. The three big players in search engines are Google, MSN and Yahoo who produce very large indexes.
  2. Google, MSN, and Yahoo will find your website when they crawl the Internet and find links back to your site. Once the search engine is aware of your site, guess what? You’re indexed.
  3. Submitting your website daily does not get your page indexed or for that matter updated any faster.If it makes you feel safer and helps you sleep at night, then submit your website to the three major players (Google, MSN, and Yahoo as it only takes a few seconds). It will not hurt you or kill you. Paying a company to submit your website daily, weekly, or monthly is not going to help you at all. Submitting your site like these professional submission places claim could in fact hurt your website in the form of getting you banned. (how do these people sleep at night?).
  4. If the company you hire does submit your website.Chances are they are going to submit your site to the millions of Free-for-All pages on the Internet. That my friends is something you really do not want to be a part of. It is highly doubt-full any of those FFA pages are going to drive quality traffic that will result in sales of your service or product and it is definitely not going to help you with link popularity
  5. This one is close to another I already listed. If your website is already in the major indexes. It really does not need to be indexed again unless you you make some major change to content. Having good internal linking on your pages should be enough to make sure new and updated pages are found.

So if you are paying someone for “submission service” you might want to start considering to cancel, if you can. With many new businesses owners out on the net with brand new websites, the claims of submission service sounds real good. Many opinion many will no doubt fall into the the too-good-to-be-true trap.

In conclusion I would like to be perfectly clear that there are many people submission services ready to take your money, ready to make you sign a contract and have no intention to do any submission work for you (or the ability to do it for you). I should also add that some services are up and up (I have not found one as I do not use this type of thing) and of course that is a entirely different story or blog that maybe one of these days we will touch basis on.

So with that being said. Go and submit your site right now to Google, MSN, and Yahoo. You just saved yourself $29.95 a month and did a better job some “submission” service could ever do.

Have a great day.

  1. Best Search Engine Of UK Submit your site and get promoted quickly.

  2. This was great. When I first started out I was one of the victims of this. Not only did I have a contract signed (I did get out of it) but I found the people who I hired really did nothing at all sure maybe once a month they would submitt my site to google or something. Do you know of any good places today that do this stuff?

  3. Hello Max,

    At this time I do not know of too many places that will do what they say. We are speaking with a few places prior to offering that type of service, however they are really going to have to prove to us. We have created some test websites that we will launch and see how the places do. Check back soon and we will list results.

  4. I have to agree. A company like you wrote about came to me and promised this or that. $250.00 dollars later nothing ever took place. People should really watch out for this type of stuff
