Hello

I have just found this submission tool which seems quite promising, the xGen Seo software= XGen SEO Software: SEO Tools for Search Engine Optimization Software (not an affiliate link). They offer a 14 day free trial so I thought I 'd give it a try.
The interface looks relatively easy and the program appears to run smoothly, it does has a voice 'screaming' at you when manual intervention is required. The problem is that it does not seem to actually submit to/create all the URL's it reports back.
The price tag at$79 is not cheap, but if it did work as promised it would be definitively worth it. Just wondering if any other warrior has experience with this to see if it is me or the program.. (I noticed that using some of these submission scripts on PC's with NON English OS, does create issues from time to time)

    I have the same question and would extend it by asking how does it compare to a similarly priced (with discount $77/month) SERPS Assist. Both seem to me to be lesser priced competitors to SE Nuke.

    Well, from what I have seen, it has loads more sites that it can post to, compared to SerpAssist ( I am also trialing this one) . The only issue I have is that it seems to have a fairly high failure rate, or rather , it is not providing accurate results in that it seems to tell you that an account is created and verified or a URL posted/submitted/bookmarked, while it is actually not (again, this may be caused by my OS being not English, I have seen this happen with a number of softwares)

    regards

      Thanks marco,
      Do you see either as a lower cost substitute to SENuke yet?

    Well, after only a few days of Xgen Seo I must say I am not very impressed by them really, I put in a support ticket last Friday and still no reply, and according their website they are AU based which means they have had all Monday to look into it... and the support request form states they normally reply within 1 hour. If this is the kind of support one gets BEFORE purchasing... Which is a pity as the software does look fairly impressive and with a number of properties, from video to article to bookmarking sites...

    On the other hand, SerpAssist has much less to offer in terms of sites supported, however customer service is prompt and efficient, and bugs seem to get fixed fairly quickly, which is promising. It seems new properties are added only once they are proven and tested (in terms of the software handling them), yet they are still really just a handful, not sure it is worth the price tag, especially if it were to be your only/main tool. Then I would definitively go with Senuke, or Web2Mayhem!

    regards

    Marco

    Been trying Gen but not impressed with success rate. Evo like in success. It makes you feel like your doing something but you do not see anytthing solid long term. Lack of support real big issue.

    Hello, maybe you want to check my XGEN Seo Review.
    I really didn't have a chance to test other contenders (especially Seo Link Robot)..but i don't think that xgenseo is so bad at all.
    It has some quirks..far from perfect...but it definitely does a lot. I would have to observe over a longer time frame to see actual results/rankings from the backlinks tho.
    But it's nice to have a whole range of functions in ONE tool.

      I've tried XGENSEO from 3 different computers, and I don't like it.

      A high percentage of registrations fail
      A high percentage of submissions fail
      It's slow

      Basically, I don't think it's worth what they are charging, but obviously everyone has a different opinion.

        Jeremy,

          TBH, i would recommend pretty much most of the other programs that do the "same thing".

          SENUKE
          SEO LINK ROBOT
          MAGIC SUBMITTER

          I think the idea behind XGEN SEO and the INTERFACE are solid. Just right now, at least for me and the machines I tried it on, it wasn't worth the cost, and time investment. I will probably give XGEN a shot whenever they update again though.

    I'll tell you this much. I have both Xgen SEO and SENuke.

    Xgen SEO is on my desktop catching virtual dust. That is because it is wayyyy toooooo slow. It has too many problems. I'm not saying SENuke doesn't have problems (which it does, a lot) but SE Nuke gets those problems fixed within the week.

    SENuke is very fast, although it doesn't have automation that is as good as Xgen SEO.

    I have yet to try video submissions on both platforms.

    But for me, SE NUKE FTW!!!!

    Hi marcolav,

    I tried XGen SEO but I am not impressed. I use a very low cost SEO software that gives me high quality backlinks and also gives me direct traffic from articles and news sites: Press Release Submitter - The Best Online Marketing Software and the cost is lower than a big Mac burger seriously $127 of SenukeX and $97 of XgenSEO are way too much. this one is cheap and effective

    Thanks.

      Thank you for the names of different programs like this. I was planning on spending my weekend trying out some new software, and was looking for feedback.

    Tools or softwares for submissions are useless. Do it manually then it will give you benefit.

    Riysoft, excuse me but no they are not. If you actually want to get things done in a day, these tools are necessary. IT all comes down to WHAT YOU PUT IN THEM. If the content sucks, so will your results. If it is good, you're results will be good. Ultimately, no tool actually "gives" you top rankings. They just allow someone that follows sound SEO principles the chance to do so more quickly. They are worth it, but you have to have a solid foundation first. For me, I use Article Marketing Robot, and Magic Submitter and Scrapebox for find sites to add to my own network of sites. And that's IT.

    Get Magic Submitter. Always updated, always working, easy to use, training is live.

    I don't like XGen SEO. Jeremy is right that high page rank registrations and submissions fail.

    I would try Sick Submitter ($20/m) or perhaps Licorne AIO ($25/m). Sick is quite stable and works well. You could also try building your own bots with UBot or ZennoPoster.
