After testing both press release site, both are overpriced press submission services. For sure there is a less expensive way.

Hi

save money by purchasing higher quality domains that "speak for themselves"
then you won't need to buy PR

domaining is also a waiting game, so you need patience and confidence.

imo...

I'm just saying for the prices they are charging for there service, it must be good. I had an experience with Contabo and after purchasing hosting and domain they send an email for an overpriced site submission service.

Hi
overpriced, doesn't = good service
but even so, the domain being sold has to be worthy enough to be called "news".

Yes the domain must have a background, correct.

Contabo charges +/- $100 for a simple url submission, i think is overpriced.

Anyone with simple knowledge of html and javascript and how post and get requests work can develop a app that send a domain or page to search engines for almost free. (I have my own tool for this purpose and is free and $5 for updates in case the url submission page become unavailable).

What do you mean domains that speak for themselves? Please provide 2 examples.

I thought any URL gets automatically scrolled by Google.

Here;s the Press Release I essentially used for both sites. You will have to Click it to view it. Yes, it was a waste of money. The object was to at least get a few domain sales. I got nothing. Each Press Release cost me around $115 each so I lost $230. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. No I won't do it again.
