Can someone explain how Directories don't get punished by google?

[ruffnat]

It seems to me they have all the hallmarks of what google ends up punishing in other sites. Lots of outgoing links. No real content of sorts.

Why doesn't google penalize the heck out of all of them and get them out of the rankings, let alone give them any pr?

Some even profit off of listing.


I don't get it?

You should check out plenty of the threads in this section then, you should be rubbing your hands together and smiling quite quickly if thats what you would like to see.

Any other requests?

Because directories mind their own business, and you should do too.

why do you want directories to get punished by Google? Whether they are doing any harm to you?

Don't buy links, don't sell links.

Might I suggest reading the forums a little longer before posting, you might "get" a little surprise.
