Hi All Its easy to assume your backlink exists, as soon as you see a listing in a directory. These is not necessarily a good assumption, There 2 very well known an highly recommended directories , that I cannot find a single back link from to any of their listings. Its a puzzle, Because we are all trying to make some money from this hobby/tech yet I now suspect that because so many people are concentrating on submitted 100s of directories, they are not bothering to check that the promised back links are alive
I check each and every one. If there is a directory out there that does not, I do not want listed in it. Because, if they are not checking backlinks, they are obviously not putting in the effort to check the site quality either.
