I think the need for an incoming link makes far more sense than submission.
Any decent-sized business or repsectable person will be able to earn a
much-deserved link from friends, partners, or affiliations. Spammy sites
will have a hard time persuading a friend (yeah, right!) or a
well-acclaimed company to set up a link.
