I did see your service when I did my research for this post. You made a good case why a submission service would be more useful than stand alone software.

RSS and Blogs are evolving very fast, which is why a service like yours that is kept regulalry up to date, can be very useful. As you say, the additional consulting you offer is what gives the value to your service.

For those of you reading Olga's comments, who don't know who Gary Bencivenga is; he's a top copywriter, and worth listening to. Check out his site here:

Don't know how I skipped this entry when I read that Traffic Secrets report...

The matter is, I did open RSS/Blog Submission Service, almost a year ago, it was then even featured by John Reese at the Big Seminar.

The matter with software is that it's hard to constantly update it -- for its developers, I mean. We submit to 120+ directories (actually I think more that 140+) and constantly update the list (now added Denise's, too :)).

But it probably is not the ultimate advantage. The matter is that we also consult our customers, what they should do with their (particular) blogs BEFORE the submission, during and after it to maximize the effect of the blog/feed submission. Software will forever miss that personal touch :))

If interested, take a look at

Garu Bencivenga told me, the copy looks beautiful :))

Best,
