SevenSeek: requirements, how to submit, and what you actually get

Visit

A pre-Google subject directory that still charges $50 a listing and still gives a bare dofollow for it.

Eligibility

Who SevenSeek accepts

You need
A live public URL
The submission fee, since editorial discovery is the only unpaid route
You'll be rejected if
Nothing stated by subject; the categories cover everything from Arts to Travel
Any live website
What you actually get
A one-paragraph entry in a subject category, with your URL printed in full and linked with no rel attribute. This is a DMOZ-shaped directory rather than a launch platform: nobody browses it for new products, so what you are buying is the link and nothing else.

How to submit to SevenSeek

  1. Read the guidelines page first
    /submit.php is not a form. It explains that you navigate to the right category and use an Add Website button there, and it states both prices.
  2. Pick the category yourself
    The taxonomy is the old subject-tree shape: Arts & Humanities, Business & Industry, Computers, Reference, Entertainment, Regional, Shopping, News & Media, Recreation & Sports, Travel, Health & Fitness, Society & Culture. Listings live on numbered .php pages inside it.
  3. Pay for the listing
    $50 for a regular listing or $99.95 for a sponsored one. Their own text says the alternative is to wait for a paid editor to find your site on their own.

Gotchas

There is no free lane at all: the guidelines say your two options are the fee or waiting for one of their paid editors to happen across your site.
The submit page carries no form. You have to navigate the subject tree to the exact leaf category yourself and use an Add Website button that only appears there.
The prices are per listing rather than per site, so a product that fits two categories is two payments.

Let your agent submit to SevenSeek
