    FIRST TYPEWRITER PATENT
    January 7, 1714 - England, UK

    The world's first patent for a “Machine for Transcribing Letters” was granted in England by Queen Anne to Henry Mill (1683?-1771), a waterworks engineer with the New River Company. The patent (No. 395) described the invention as “an artificial machine or method for impressing or transcribing of letters, one after another, as in writing, whereby all writing whatsoever may be engrossed in paper or parchment so neat and exact as not to be distinguished from print; that the said machine... may be of great use in settlements and public records, the impression being deeper and more lasting than any other writing, and not to be erased or counterfeited without manifest discovery.” There is no remaining record that he actually built the machine.

    THERMAL CRACKING PATENT
    January 7, 1913 - U.S. patent (No.1,049,667)

    A U.S. patent for the thermal cracking of crude oil was issued to William Merriam Burton (No.1,049,667). A crude petroleum mixture of various hydrocarbons can be separated into several groups of constituents by physical means, commonly distillation. His thermal cracking process used high heat and high pressure to chemically break longer molecules of less volatile components into smaller molecules, more than doubling the yield of gasoline which was much needed to fuel the motor industry. In its first 15 years of use the process saved more than 1 billion barrels of crude oil. In 1937 the invention of catalytic cracking superseded the Burton process, but it remains in wide use.

Directory submission is a technique that makes use of different web directories for submitting your web site. By making these submission you can always effectively increase the ranking of your website.

Most webmasters always prefer making use of manual submissions as this is generally considered very much effective. When doing manually you may have to visit each of the web directories individually and then do the submissions.

There are a number of web directories that only allow manual web directory submission as they certainly are very much reluctant to the automated type of services. So the moment they detect any automated directory submission service they simply disapprove all the details related to that URL from their directory database. So after your URL is eliminated then you may never be able to do your submissions next time. When you choose to submit to web directories manually then you certainly have a choice where you can make your selection of directories for submission. Since thousands of web directories are available so if you choose to submit in each one of them, then the process can be time consuming.

One of the best alternatives is to try and outsource the job to a professional SEO company so you can save your time and money. Even before selecting any such company it is important that you read a few reviews related to them online so you are sure that you have selected one of the best companies for completing the job effectively. The general rule when doing directory submission is to try and submit to a few directories in a single day so you can get the desired results. In case you are looking for much better results then selecting a delayed submission service is also one good option. Such manual directory submission services complete the job in different steps over a period of time to make the submission more effective. So there are chances that they might even choose to complete nearly 1000 submissions in a period of one month. They certainly might also make use of separate titles for each submission to get better results.
