I currently don't have time to make new templates, so I use the ones that have proven themselves in the past...
so I just resize the pics and hand submit to around 30 tgps. takes me around 30 minutes.

I don't hand submit :)

I use Chameleon Submitter. Autosubmits to about 300-400 sites and then has a hand submission setup that submits to my top 75-100 sites. I also use their Email Confirmer too.

1 gallery takes about 30-45 min to Auto Submit, Hand Submit and Confirm.

I'm using Chameleon Submitter.
While auto submit is running,
I'm submitting in 2 windows, it's downloading only html code and automatically tracking codes + only few banners.
All I need to do in most cases is rewrite tracking code, or choose description, if some lamer has combo box descriptions.
I've never looked how many times it takes exactly,
but even throught external proxy it takes ~30 min.

And then confirming of ~300 e-mails by chameleon confirmer will take another minute or two.

I used Advanced Submitter, but didn't like their database. Try Chameleon for $20 a month and if you like the way it works...continue paying monthly or buy it for $149. The only thing Advanced can do that Chameleon can't is the Auto-FTP upload. Even without that feature...it's still my favorite submitter. Hand submissions with Chameleon rock.

3-4 hours for me to submit to around 150 tgps. i usually the gallery the night b4

For me the total process takes at most about 2 hours. That's not including building the gallery. Building a gallery takes me anywhere from 15 minutes to several hours depending on how things go or if I'm using an existing template.


I use autosubmitter's hand submission tool. Never their autosubmission tool.

I also hand confirm all of the emails.

My submitters can do the job very VERY quickly. Then again all they do day in and day out is submit. So you get pretty fast at it over time.

yes! I've just started turning all my galls into free sites.

I do 2 galleries a day, submitting them both takes me about an hour.

linkup pro for smaller tgps, gass+roboform for partners.

Well, AS doesn't come with the greatest database in the world... but the whole point is to build your own database.

If you do your own submissions.. you submit, submit, submit and submit again and whoever doesn't list you after a month, gets taken off the list while the new guys go on.

After you do that for a while, you've got a nice list of TGPs that all accept you on a regular basis. :thumbsup

If you make any freesites for the big boob niche....

take a copy of your warning page, remove the link list recips and add a recip to boobfind.com

boobfind is a big boob search engine that will send your freesites some nice qualified visitors.
