Hi i keep getting messages about this 123 reg service which i use to buy some of my domain names and i would like to know what you think of the instant traffic service they offer where they register your domain with search engines.
Does this service work or is it a waste of money and you should do it manually.
Please let me know what you think. I have put the info below

Nothing spectacular here. It is just a standard search engine submission service. How in the world can they offer any thing more - in terms of organic search. Either that or they would probably put the website up on their network of site to drive some traffic through.

I would not, get a link to your site and all search engines will find it.
all these services are just value adding, makeing money out of peoples fears and lack of knoladge,

many thanks for the advice

I have no idea what that is but it sounds really, really cool. If they're going to do that, what else do you need?
For engines that matter you don't need to submit anything. In fact, I would just go about getting your links and you'll be found anyways. You don't need this service.

Hi Diane.
I was curious so I took a look at the site.
Basic package - the only service they provide is to submit your sitemap 12x per month. Very simple and cheap sitemap software will do this for you free as many times as you want. No value at all. Not really worth mentioning but they submit to 100 search engines. Since Bing+Yahoo+Google = 98% of traffic, and Ask = 1%, the rest really don't matter.
I looked at their remaining packages and I see nothing of any tangible benefit to a SEOmoz PRO member.
Looking at their reviews, 25 of 49 reviews offer a 1 out of 5 star rating. http://www.ciao.co.uk/Reviews/123_reg_co_uk__5111134
Is This Service a Waste Of Money
I haven't used the service but everything I looked at seems to indicate it is worth purchasing.
