Ongoing search engine submission? You've gotta be kidding!

I just heard about a supposedly-reputable competitor of ours in the search engine optimization space that's charging clients recurring fees of many hundreds of dollars per month for "submission services" to major search engines. What a joke! That just goads me, that they would take unsuspecting clients for a ride like that. We haven't submitted a single site to any major search engines since 2001 or earlier. A site with good links gets found by the spiders. Period. Frankly, resubmitting sites that are already indexed isn't just unnecessary, it's asking for trouble. And charging for it to boot? Well in my mind that's unethical.
