http://www.co-internet.net/net/articles/autosubmitter.txt.html How To Recognize a Good Automatic Search Engine Submitter ------------------------------------------------------ by Ralph Tegtmeier ------------------------------------------------------ A good automatic submission program is quite undetectable if you do it right. So what constitutes a "good" submitter? To qualify, the program must: - Convey the correct referral (submission) URL. - Transmit all required data (e.g. email address, where required). - Use the engine's specific correct submission syntax (by no means a given - this requires extensive and regular updates). - Allow for customizable submission limits (e.g. 5 pages per domain and day). - Apply realistic time delays when submitting multiple pages (this would typically mimic manual submission speed). - Check submission pages for availability (else, it will generate an error message, wasting the search engines' system resources and bandwidth). - Offer extensive submission reports including snapshots of search engine error message pages to remediate faulty submission processes and/or schedule resubmissions if required. - Implement scheduled submission requiring no human monitoring. - Support as many bona fide search engines (including their international web properties) as feasible. (Submitting to hundreds if not thousands of purported "search engines", most of which being, in reality, mere FFA link farms, won't do you any good whatsoever - on the contrary, it will only serve to provoke a flood of spam mail.)
