Xrumer, SB & Social Bookmarking doesn't have the same effect

Last year...xrumer, scrapebox and social bookmarking did alot to your domain serp rankings. Now I see that it does more harm than good.

All these blasts of 10,000 links will send your domain packing to stay a few pages back from where it organically found itself.

I think I wasted alot of money on these kinds of things.

I'm thinking a few high pr links here and there, article submissions and updating your sites content frequently would do the trick.

Do you guys have any other suggestions?

Use the tools but do NOT use them directly on your money site. Set up other sites/pages and link to your site and then hit them with all the tools you have and this will help.
