BacklinkBot vs GetMoreBacklinks — Compared

GetMoreBacklinks and BacklinkBot are both one-time, done-for-you directory submission services, which makes this one of the more directly comparable matchups on this page — unlike some of the SEO-tool comparisons elsewhere on this site, these two products are trying to solve the exact same problem for the exact same customer. The real differences come down to submission method, directory count, and how each service prices and delivers the work.

What GetMoreBacklinks Offers

GetMoreBacklinks positions itself around volume and speed: 500+ directory listings for a flat $127 one-time fee, delivered within 7 days, using what the service describes as a semi-automated submission system. Semi-automated typically means a combination of automated form-filling with some human oversight or moderation, rather than either a fully manual process or a fully bot-driven blast submission.

Beyond the core submission, GetMoreBacklinks advertises real-time backlink tracking and white-label reports — features that suggest the product is built with agencies and resellers in mind, not just individual founders submitting their own product.

What BacklinkBot Offers

BacklinkBot's approach is fully manual at every tier: our team submits your product to 100+ (Starter, $99), 200+ (Pro, $167), or 300+ (Elite, $357) real directories, one-time, with every single submission done by hand rather than through automated form-filling. The submission process typically starts within 48 hours and completes over the following weeks — slower than GetMoreBacklinks' 7-day window, but reflecting the extra time a person needs to research each directory's specific rules and write a tailored description rather than reuse a templated entry.

You get a full report at the end covering every directory submitted to, live/pending status, and a live proof link per listing.

Volume vs. Manual Quality: The Actual Trade-off

This comparison comes down to a genuine trade-off rather than one option being objectively better. A semi-automated process optimized for speed and volume can plausibly deliver 500+ listings faster than a fully manual process can deliver 300 — that's a real advantage if raw directory count and turnaround speed are your priorities, and it's reflected in GetMoreBacklinks' pricing sitting close to BacklinkBot's top Elite tier while promising nearly double the directory count.

The trade-off is what "semi-automated" typically means for per-listing quality. Fully manual submission allows a person to read each directory's specific category structure and rules, choose the right fit, and write a description tailored to that specific listing rather than a templated entry reused with minor variations. This matters because many directories — particularly the more selective, higher-authority ones — reject submissions that read as generic or automated, and even when accepted, a generic listing tends to pass less relevance signal than a tailored one. Whether that difference matters enough to you to justify slower delivery and a smaller headline directory count is a genuinely personal call based on what you're optimizing for.

Pricing Per Directory

Doing the simple math: GetMoreBacklinks' $127 for 500+ directories works out to roughly $0.25 or less per listing. BacklinkBot's Starter tier at $99 for 100+ works out closer to $1 per listing, with the Elite tier ($357 for 300+) landing around $1.19 per listing. On a pure cost-per-directory basis, GetMoreBacklinks is meaningfully cheaper — which makes sense given the different submission methods; manual research and tailored description-writing for each listing is inherently more labor-intensive per directory than a semi-automated process, and that labor cost shows up in the per-listing price.

Turnaround Time: What the Numbers Don't Show

GetMoreBacklinks' 7-day window and BacklinkBot's multi-week manual timeline aren't measuring the same kind of week. A 7-day semi-automated turnaround is largely bounded by processing capacity — the system can push through a batch quickly because most of the work is automated. A multi-week manual timeline reflects a real person's actual working hours split across your batch alongside other customers' orders, plus the calendar time some directories' own manual review queues add on their end (which affects both services equally, since neither controls how fast a third-party directory reviews a submission). If speed is your top priority, factor in that even a "fast" manual service is bounded by real labor capacity in a way an automated one generally isn't.

Which Should You Choose?

If your priority is maximizing raw directory count at the lowest cost per listing, with faster turnaround, and you're comfortable with a semi-automated process (plus you may value the tracking/white-label features if you're an agency), GetMoreBacklinks' model is worth serious consideration.

If you'd rather have fewer, more carefully targeted listings — each researched and submitted by a real person who read that specific directory's rules and wrote a genuine, tailored description — and you're comfortable with a longer delivery window in exchange for that manual attention, BacklinkBot's tiered model may be the better fit. Starting with our Starter tier ($99, 100+) is also a lower-commitment way to evaluate the process and the resulting listing quality before deciding whether to scale up.

What Neither Guarantees

Neither BacklinkBot nor GetMoreBacklinks guarantees a specific ranking improvement or Domain Rating outcome — no legitimate directory submission service should, since Google's ranking algorithm weighs far more than backlink volume from any single source. Both are, fundamentally, promising real, indexed backlinks as the deliverable; what happens to your rankings afterward depends on the rest of your SEO picture too.

A Note for Agencies

If you're a marketing agency evaluating either service on behalf of clients, the white-label reporting and real-time tracking GetMoreBacklinks advertises are specifically built for that reseller use case — worth weighing if you need to hand a branded report to a client without extra formatting work on your end. BacklinkBot's report is straightforward and detailed (every directory, status, and proof link) but isn't currently built as a white-label product for reselling under your own brand name — an agency using BacklinkBot today would need to reformat the report before sharing it under their own branding.

How to Verify Either Service's Claims

Whichever service you choose, verify the delivered work rather than taking the summary count at face value. Both services should provide a list of actual URLs where your listing went live — spot-check a handful directly (does the listing actually exist, is your link present, is it dofollow or nofollow) rather than trusting a dashboard count alone. This is good practice for any paid link-building service, not specific to either company here, since a report claiming "500 submissions" is only as valuable as the live, indexed listings behind that number.

What "Semi-Automated" Likely Means in Practice

GetMoreBacklinks doesn't publicly detail the exact mechanics of its semi-automated process, so it's worth reasoning through what that term generally implies in the directory-submission space rather than taking it at face value either way. Semi-automated typically means the bulk of repetitive form-filling (name, URL, contact details, logo) happens through software, with some layer of human oversight reviewing category selection or handling directories that require manual steps like CAPTCHAs or email verification. This sits between fully automated tools (covered in our manual vs. automated comparison) and a fully manual process where a person handles every field of every submission.

The practical implication is a quality spectrum, not a binary. A well-run semi-automated process with real human review at key steps can deliver reasonably good outcomes; a poorly-run one starts to resemble the fully automated pattern that directories actively filter out. Since neither company publishes directory-by-directory acceptance and indexing rates, the honest answer is that you're trusting a description of the process rather than verifiable data, whichever service you choose — which is exactly why spot-checking delivered listings, covered above, matters regardless of which one you pick.

Refund and Guarantee Considerations

Neither directory submission nor SEO more broadly lends itself to a satisfaction guarantee in the way a physical product might, since the deliverable (real submissions to real third-party directories) is genuinely completed work, not a reversible transaction. Before purchasing from either service, it's worth reading the specific refund policy in full rather than assuming a standard consumer-software refund window applies — done-for-you services that involve real labor and third-party submissions often have narrower or non-refundable policies once work has started, precisely because the submissions themselves can't be "undone" once live. Check the current terms directly with whichever provider you're considering rather than relying on general assumptions about SaaS refund norms.

Directory Overlap: What You're Actually Getting for a Second Purchase

If you're considering using both services, either sequentially or because you're unsure which to trust, it's worth thinking through directory overlap first. A meaningful portion of any large directory database — general startup directories, major SaaS listing sites, well-known review platforms — appears in essentially every service's list, since these are the directories every provider in this space knows about and submits to. The genuine differentiator between two 100+ or 500+ directory batches isn't usually the household names both include, but the smaller, more niche or higher-authority directories that require more research to discover — which is where a manual, curation-heavy process has more room to differentiate itself from a larger, less curated automated list.

Practically, this means buying a second service after the first mainly nets you a smaller number of genuinely new submissions than the headline directory count difference might suggest, since a meaningful fraction of any large list overlaps with any other. If you do go this route, ask whichever service you use second whether they can compare against directories you've already submitted to, so you're not paying twice for the same listing on a website that only accepts one submission per product.
