The default database in any of the submitters are a good start. To benefit the most, you need to customize the database.
In the beginning, submit to every site you can possibly submit to. Watch your stats and weed out the ones that never list you or only send a few hits.
Add sites to the database specific to your niche. Niche TGP/MGP sites might have less traffic than a general site, but it is more targeted.
Promote a niche(s) that interests you. If you don't like teens, don't promote them because everyone else is promoting them. Stick with what you know and like. You'll be better at marketing niche(s) if you have an interest in them and/or you do not find it offensive.
Many people are not going to tell you what sponsor and what niche is working for them. If they announce what is working for them, they just cut their own profits. Another reason too is, what is working for one person, will not always work as well or at all for another person.
Traffic depends on multiple factors. How many partner/trusted submitter accounts, paid listings, where and how often your galleries are listed, descriptions and preview thumbs. Traffic to your galleries takes time to build. Traffic is a snowball effect. The numbers start out small, but with each gallery submitted, each new listing, and with each partner/trusted submitter account obtained, your traffic will continue to grow on a daily basis.
Visit respected, high traffic sites like Pink World, Richards Realm, Thumbzilla, Shemp, Lumberjack, and a few others including niche specific sites. Take a look at who is buying spots, who are in the top listings, explore categories that interest you, to see what sponsors they are using. People will not continue to buy spots for particular sponsors, if they aren't making a profit from that sponsor.
Your content on your galleries needs to be the main focus. Use larger sized thumbs. The higher the quality of the thumbs and full sized images, the better. If you are advertising a mature sponsor, don't use teen or young ladies content. Tell a surfer where to click to get more. Don't throw a banner up and assume they know to click it to get more.
Whether you use Chameleon, Advanced Submitter, G.A.S.S., Dream Submitter, Russian Submitter, or any of the other submission tools, they are just that, tools. They are designed to help you with your submissions to make submitting easier and less time consuming. Many of them have an autosubmit feature. Just select the option and the software does the rest. DO NOT USE THIS FEATURE. Take the time to hand submit your galleries, customize your database, and build a good reputation as an honest gallery submitter. You will be rewarded for your effort.
