Question

I want to start submitting my site to directories.
How do I distinguish between the ones that are good against the ones that suck big time so I don't waste what little time I have?

Answer 1

Page Rank, thats all that matters. If the directory is page rank 5+ then you must submit your site no matter what (assuming its free or really cheap). Directories get your site more backlinks and that in turn leads to more traffic.

Answer 2

Criteria for selecting a web directory

-The directories should be maintained up-to-date, weeding out unwanted data

-Directories should use optimized search techniques

-Search directories should have classifications to suit the needs of the business

-Directories should be well known and will be used by web users

Answer 3

Don't submit in those directories which added few link in categories because it shows directly that they do not update the site with the new links.

Answer 4

A lot of people only check the PR for the front page, though. You need to check inside where your site link will actually reside. If the front page is PR 4 but the inside category page is only PR 0, the link won't really be doing you any good.

Answer 5

PageRank is not priority for me..If a directory can give me any visitor to my site, then I will happily submit my site in that directory. Otherwise, it will be useless to me.
