Having come from marketing, I may be of some help.

searchfeed, these guys are a PPC (Pay Per Click) search engine. While I would never say anything bad against another company, I can say there are certainly better deals. Check out 537 Pay Per Click Search Engines Reviewed for a full list of PPC's. I would try to stay with the more recognized as click fraud is bad amongst the smaller PPC's. Try Google and Yahoo, they will give you the best ROI (Return on Investment).

indexfaster - these guys are an Search Engine Optimization company or inclusion service, how ever they want to call themselves. While there are some very good SEO Company's out there, you usually will find that if you want results, you are going to have to spend some major $$$. The smaller guys simply don't put the man hours behind good SEO work and while some of the smaller guys are good, again, you get what you pay for. I would suggest spending a bit of time and understanding SEO, you will find the long term value is your best bet. Short of that, good SEO work is going to run you between $500 and $5k a month depending on the size of the project.

blastengine - Just like IndexFaster, blastengine works on the same concept but with blogs. While they may appear to have some value, I would suggest staying away from "Bargains" - they seldom are. I don't know this company personally but again my suggestion is to find free services in this area with a bit of knowledge.

My overall suggestion, a lot of people assume that spending a few $$$'s will help, after all what's the big deal about $25 here or $100 there but in reality if it's just a waste, it's a big deal. Stay clear of sites that promise 1Million submissions or that promote big names, you will find that short of a few good testimonials, big names seldom are related. I know that our company for example has several big name clients and we don't publicize it because we don't need to.

Lean Search Engine Optimization, it's not so bad and there are a lot of great free resources, it will be your best investment.

I wouldn't use any of those sites listed. If you want targeted traffic use Google's adwords program or possibly yahoo's. You'll be paying for instant traffic to your site (this costs money)

If you want free traffic to your site learn Search Engine Optimization. It's free and even converts better!
