Reciprocal links

    How do directory owners check recip. links?
    I mean when you submit website and post reciprocal link do they usually require that this page is indexed and/or with PR?
    Does it have to be on the same domain as submitted site?

    I was thinking about creating blog - rec. link would be in post about that directory.
    But Google would not index that post for a while.
    Plus I could at best use subdomain, not the same domain.

    Directory pings site to see if link left in submission form is still in there.

    When you submit your site, script checks if reciprocal domain matches
    domain in submission form URL field and if you put bogus domain, it will
    reject your submission.

    But if my website is www.google.com, will it accept subdomain.google.com?

    Plus another thing - many people have 2 or more directories. I suppose someone with 10+ dirs could reject rec. links if they all come from the same website...?

    It doesn't matter if you have 100 sub-domain.domain.tld sites, you must
    add backlink to that directory in each and every one of them.

    I meant - I have one website (abc.com) and submit it to 10 directories (all owned by that same person), I wonder if people like that often reject submissions because all reciprocals are from the same site/blog (blog.abc.com) even if every directory link has their own page
    LOL, I don't know if I'm explaining it properly

    I don't see any problems with that as long as you have placed links
    to all directories or to one directory that has 10 sub-domains.

    Never seen a real directory require a reciprocal link. A directory would list your site based on the content of your site rather than whether or not you've linked to it. Quit wasting your time with link exchange farms.
