In a few days, live links to all of these sites will be at
Jay Linden's site at:
<a href="<a href="http://www.interlog.com/~bxi/diamonds.htm">http://www.interlog.com/~bxi/diamonds.htm</a>">http://www.interlog.com/~bxi/diamonds.htm</a>
If you are aware of other sites that offer these services,
please let me know about them and I will keep this issue
of WEB DIAMONDS up to date with the latest information.
You can certainly go to each of the directories and search
engines yourself, but these other alternatives should save
you quite a bit of time. Each alternative may have some
drawbacks which I have tried to identify.
OK, here goes:
SUBMIT-IT is a site which allows one-stop submission of your
Web site to (only) a few key directories and search engines for free:
<a href="<a href="http://submit-it.permalink.com/submit-it/">http://submit-it.permalink.com/submit-it/</a>">http://submit-it.permalink.com/submit-it/</a>
The "Pointers To Pointers" page (part of the HomeCom site)
provides several links to free/fee places to advertise your site:
<a href="<a href="http://www.homecom.com/global/pointers.html">http://www.homecom.com/global/pointers.html</a>">http://www.homecom.com/global/pointers.html</a>
Eric Ward offers the NetPOST(tm) service which is a customized
service for listing your site in over 70 directories and
search engines for only a few hundred dollars. Since many
of the search tools and directories require varying levels
of depth of information, this service gives you a customized
direct entry into each of the listings. No Web site address,
just send an E-mail message to: netpost@netpost.com
Webstep(tm) Traffic &amp; Impact Building Site and report provides
Web traffic building tips plus free and fee places to advertise
your site:
<a href="<a href="http://www.mmgco.com/online/webstep.html">http://www.mmgco.com/online/webstep.html</a>">http://www.mmgco.com/online/webstep.html</a>
AAA Internet Promotions will list your site in several
directories and search engines for a fee:
<a href="<a href="http://www.websitepromote.com/">http://www.websitepromote.com/</a>">http://www.websitepromote.com/</a>
...or send an E-mail message to: solution@west.net
This site lists over 200 directories/search tools/cybermalls where
you can submit your URL, but it looks like you have to go to
each of these 200 one-at-a-time (there is no batch submission
capabilities). To take a look, go to one of these 2 URLs:
<a href="<a href="http://www.vir.com/~wyatt/index.html">http://www.vir.com/~wyatt/index.html</a>">http://www.vir.com/~wyatt/index.html</a>
<a href="<a href="http://www.mbs-program.com/MBS/">http://www.mbs-program.com/MBS/</a>">http://www.mbs-program.com/MBS/</a>
