Importance Of Directories?

[scott5430]

some are ... some aren't.

if you can find high PR directories, specific to your niche, with high traffic, and small amount of links per category, and free to submit... then they are great!

unfortunately, most are low PR, junk directories, with thousands of irrelevant PR0 links.

I see directories being a good way in exposing your site to search engines but now google is the God of search engines so i guess we have to follow its guidelines nowadays.

The trouble I have with directories is this: You can submit to 100s of directories and only get admitted by a fistful. Sometimes the time isn't worth the difficulty.

I think, directories which has much importance are belong to the paid one. Actually the owner the directory site don't want it to be wasted but most user spam the site such as free directories so everything will lead to big pile of spam list of site

I thinks it's good to do a url directory submission, just to get in all the search engines. However, they aren't that effective. I get a little traffic from search engines I never knew existed, but very little.

Hi,
A business directory is very much like the yellow pages. Most people use them when they are looking for specific businesses and services. Business sites provide a list of all businesses and services under specific categories. This manner of listing is actually very advantageous to the user because searches are trimmed down to specific categories; thus reducing the time spent for looking up businesses in the directory.
Thanks.

Your site will be indexed to it. It is like a micro search engine that's whenever a user search for a keyword your site will be index to its result.
