4.) Enable Confirmation (verify) through Email from configuration.

5.) Add Google ads or other ads. on link summary, Submit steps, sidebar, and headers.

7.) Submit RSS Feed to Google Webmaster tools, Yahoo Site Explorer, and MSN Webmaster tools. If you have installed  XML site map, then submit same site map to all the above resources.

8.) Ping Regularly the pligg site using auto pinger or so. You can purchase premium module from pligg shop.

1.) Google Apps :

Google Apps is a service from Google for using custom domain names with several Google products. It features several Web applications with similar functionality to traditional office suites, including: Gmail (email service), Google Calendar, Talk, Docs, iGoogle and Google Sites.

Their are currently two plans out of which one is standard (free) while other is premium (paid). Premium cost for 50$/Year per user while standard plan is free but with less facility.

All basic facilities have been included in Standard plan, so their is no need to go for premium one. It enables you all facility like pop3, mail forwarding, auto reply, filters, etc.

Here is video showing Gmail service for Google Apps

2.) Windows Live Custom Domains (Windows Live Admin Center)

Windows Live Admin Center (earlier Windows Live Custom Domains) is a free service provided by Window Live. It enables users with domain names to change their domain MX record (Mail Server) so that they can enjoy the full features of Windows Live (Hotmail) on their personalised domain.

More better option is that you can provide free sign up link to your members on your website. As hotmail their is no pop3, mail forwarding or like that.

My Suggestion

As it seems to be clearly from my above post that I recommend Google Apps rather then Windows Live Admin Center. I have used both the service and I think Google Apps is more better.

As per experiments by many webmasters and SEO, directory submission has become now useless in many ways. But remember fact strict quality directories like DMOZ and others do posses high values in their listing. But surely submission to tons of directories is no more useful.

Automatic Tools are very crap but semi-automatic tools works great. Some of them which are free are listed below :v

1.) DigiMas (recommended)

2.) Imwishlist

If you want to submit site manually then please refer to list of directories at here.
