Quite a few surfers say things like "I wouldn’t advise you to use autosubmitters, many Search Engines don’t allow auto-submissions" or "I think autosubmitting is like a quick fix."
But here’s what I say:
Small European search engines and others are unlikely to randomly crawl your sites. You have to bring your site to their attention. If everyone relied exclusively on big search engines for traffic, this World Wide Web would not be a net – just a one-way toll road.
Even MSN offers automated multiple search-engine submissions (but please note that their service is not free). See for example http://search.microsoft.com/search/results.aspx?st=b&View=en-us&s=8&c=0&qu=submit or http://submitit.bcentral.com/subcats2.htm

And if being listed on FFA’s spells doom for a site, then we are all doomed: any stranger can submit any site to any FFA from anywhere in the world. Who’s to say the aliens aren’t busy submitting your site to 100s of thousands of FFAs right this second.
We can’t label the various sectors — the Internet is too complex for generalizations.
