Welcome to WMW Trebor - I know your service, I used to use it before I heard that autosubmission can be penalised.

It seems to me that there are 2 kinds of submission:
1. To the SEs that you hope will provide a lot of traffic e.g. the top 10, certain directories specialising in your topic.

2. The Rest (OK we know about the 100,000 but its more like a 100 or so isn't it).

So, my question is: Is autosubmission valid for 'the rest'?

<a properly done autosubmission is exactly the same as a manual submission>
How do you know? I'm not technical but it would be great if a few experts could clear this one up. I would love to use autosubmission for all the small SEs but don't because of the things I read at WMW.

<no evidence that any search engines are actively discriminating against submissions based on auto vs. manual> Some say there is evidence, some say there isn't. Can we clear this up too?
