I totally agree. I’ve used TG in the past, or certainly reviewed it on behalf of some of my Perth Website Development clients. Bottom line is as you say. It’s a little bit expensive for what it is. You are much better off doing the work yourself and concentrating your effors on getting strong traffic from one or two good quality sources than dozens of average ones.

Good post.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the honest review. I have considered Traffic Geyser but the expense stopped me. I also wonder about the possibility of spam. How does TG account for this? Does it allow you to customize titles and descriptions for each submission and is this totally necessary for search engines anyway?

I have been receiving their marketing emails and boy can these guys sell their own product(s). How to sell marketing to marketing! I haven’t trialled the program for the fear of it being a content spam generator, the rules haven’t really changed over the last 10 years. Submit original copy and content manually. 3rd party programs to access sites has always been frowned up as they are non human. Only contradiction here is being able to use the likes of Oath to access sites by loging in using a third party account such as facebook ect ect.

The whole new world of seo is far more complicated these days if not a million times more competitive. Yet, that said Matt Cutts always makes things very simple. As has been pointed out by a few comments on this most excellent article, content is for the internet community and they want quality content in one place, not duplicated across the internet cluttering it up. Make a site authoritive enough and the right people will keep coming to it. Multiple distribution systems can only be spammy and lead to blacklistings, surely.

Thanks for the great review and pretty much sealed my thoughts on not reviewing this product. Manual submitting all over again

Thanks for the comprehensive and thorough analysis on this software. I haven’t tried the trial yet for TG, but I think I am going to check it out now. I feel that video marketing is a very important aspect of any marketing strategy, and like anything it depends on how much you use the software to justify the price. If you are an average user then it probably isn’t for you it sounds like, but if you are a large player in video marketing then it is definitely worth your time.

Thanks again everyone!

Lots of mixed reviews. I am just testing it out myself. I’ll be back with my opinion on it.

I signed up with them, took days to get logged in and when we needed support it was awful. Then we tried to cancel and they just ignored the ticket, each time we log into support and see it closed, we add a comment to it, and then they go close it again. This is either a case of extreme arrogance or their system is rubbish!

Hello from Ireland. Was going to use this service so I found this quite useful. I have some video content on CD and DVD which I was hoping to get out there but not sure that this is the best way. Duplication on some of the sites is a worry as well if you use a few different services. I think I will try TubeMogul to see how that goes. Although I have a friend in Scotland who uses this and he seems very pleased.

When I went from PPC to organic, I hired Traffic Geyser for my Video and Article submission. I was very, very displeased with their program.

After a week of uploading 5 videos, one actually was up-loaded (without a title). and after a week only two articles were uploaded to 3 article directories.

In addition, I listened to their webinar, which was worthless. They hustled their affilaite program and gave very little information on organic marketing.

After doing some research on my own. It’s not how many links you have, but the quality of those links. So, I went back and analyzed Traffic Geysers page article submission websites mannually through FireFox and found the true page rank and Alexa ranking for those sites. Out of 18 articles sumission sites only 2 out of 18 sites had a page rank and Alexa rating worth keeping. In the video directories, only 2 out 18 video directories had a page rank of 8 or greater.

I even checked out Heyspread. What a joke. After 17-hours it could not even upload one video to 5 video directories. So, I decided to do this totally free.

I examined the top 13 article directories with the highest page rank and Alexa ranking. I cast out 3 sites for having a difficult editorial guidline…and endedup with the top 10 article directories. When I submit my article, it will go to the highest page rank directories…and Google will pay attention. Most of the Traffic Geyser article directories had very low page rank…such as 0.

In the video directories, only 2 out 18 video directors had high page rank. So, I had to build my own selection. I choose the highest page ranks out the top 10…and come up with the top 5.

In addition, I needed additional links from blogs that had only “follow attributes” and purchased a software program to analyze and make comments and add my links to blogs with follow attributes.

So, my best advice is tell all these compnies to hit the road, and do this yourself.

Its been almost 3 years since you wrote this and Traffic Geyser and its customers are still going strong. How is it going for you

I think I’ll sign up and use it for my customers so it won’t be that expensive.
