Prices for 1st URL are more expensive then the following. If I submit 10 URLs today, and after a month I submit another 5, do this 5 URLs cost me the same price or I need to pay 1 expensive price and 4 cheaper price.

Although broken english but I think you can understand it. ;)

All urls submitted after the first one, on the same account are charged at the lower price.

URLs submitted can also be from different domains, without incurring the "1st url" fee.

WHOOOOAA ... not so fast. I tried Verisign by submitting one URL to Ink via them. I had to pay $39 for submitting the intial URL. A couple weeks later, I went to submit a second URL and found I would have to pay the $39 1st-URL fee again. I wrote them but got a canned response about there be no refunds for URL registrations, which had nothing to do with the question I was asking.

Not so with Position Tech, however. They have never tried to charge me the initial fee except the very first time I submitted to Ink through them.

I think it's preying on the newbies that don't know they're being gouged.

Getting suckered by Netsol on the Ink PFI gave me the final motivation to move my old domain name registrations to a new registrar and begin saving over $20/yr per domain name, not that domain registration has anything to do with Ink PFI. I just wanted to distance myself from Netsol as far as possible.

krishn,

LOL, that is a template reply! I wonder how many people receive the same reply! And it is totally off topic. No wonder NetSol can't make money online.

Lycos is just masquerading the PT submission service.

Why not go directly to PT and sign up. Then if you want to talk to someone about any technical problems, you won't be obligated to go through a potentially clueless middleman.

I have only submit my first batch of URLs and are still questioning the worth of my money!

I don't know lycos is actually PT. I found them in the inktomi partner reseller lists and most important they are offering discount currently! ;)

jamesyap >> Lycos ... they are offering discount currently!

Hey, so they are! Now that's news! I wonder if any other Ink PFI services, or PT direct submissions, will be following suite.
