Is directory submission still important?

Hi..

i come to know that directory submission is not as much important now a days, i want to know from SEO experts of this forum that is directory submission is still important and is it good to do more directory submissions?, waiting for some genius answers..

 

Well, since the new updates, mass directory submission will actually do more harm than good to your site. But, if we're talking about high PR directories that are somewhat related to your niche, then yes, directory submissions still hold power.

Just make sure that you submit your site to directories that are related to your site and have a high PR.

 

There's is an underlying theme... natural progression of building links, relationship from the source of the sites, and the high PR. Instead of mass directory submissions, seems to be more important to really focus on social media. An multi-faceted approach is best, slow and steady.

 

Yes you hear it right, mass directory submission is now a problem!

 

Yeah directory submission is still important specially for local business.As other suggest high rank directories from your niche become good link building tactic for not only improving your traffic but also getting quality backlinks.

 

Although directory submissions alone won’t help you achieve high search rankings, submitting to high quality directories should feature as part of your SEO campaign.

 

the answer is yes if you are talking about quality directory. The link building is all about quality no matter what type of the site

 

yes... just make sure you post to high quality PR directories.

 

It's still relevant, don't overdo it (this will be difficult though since there are low acceptance rates).

 

Directory Submission is still a good task but should be done in less quantity. Directory Submission on high PR sites with less quantity is still valuable to get high rank.

 

I think paid directories are more relevant from seo point of view.

 

Directory submission get the permanent or long time links available so I hope it's really good or important for boost google rank or traffic.

 

Directory submission is a long term process, But it would bring you high improvement in your search rank.

 

Yes Directory submission is more Important in SEO.

 

In total, High PR directory submission will do good to your site.
Otherwise it's mass.

 

Directory submission is still of some worth but some parameters should be followed,

please see that while submission,

1 at least pr 3 directory is good
2 whether it is paid or not, if it is paid and says guarantee listing (means you pay and they list) these are not of some worth.
3 editorial review is very important, even a site is free but reviews first and then enter your site it is of worth.

too many submissions are suspicious, try 3-4 a week and no more then 25.

 

Submitting your business website to free directories is something I personally feel a waste of time. Buying a premium directory membership in a high PR site could be of great help though.

 

I don't think Directory Submission is important now-a-days.

 

Directory submission is most important factor for seo.

 

Yes good PR directory submission should be in your pipeline.
