All the different search engines and directories have different methods of listing the submitted site.

For example, some list by keywords, some lists alphabetically, some lists by the URL (web address), some lists by the meta tag (hidden keywords embedded in the codes of your website), and many will list by using the site's description.

When using these submission services, you'll be submitting your site blindly, without considering the position / ranking your site will be in. It is better for you to submit manually as you can personally tailor your submission for each search engine.

For example, Yahoo.com uses alphabetical listings... so, you might name your site appropriately to get good listings.

Excite.com uses keywords. So, it'll be wise to go all out in the keyword submission in it's forms. So now do you see what you are missing by using these submission services?
