is directory submission helpful for high page ranking? or is it helpful for good key word ranking?.....can someone kindly help me to get good site list for directory submissions? Please give me a good articles about directory submission... thanks
For both. Pagerank distribution however depends on the PR of the page on which your link gets listed. (Interior category)
Directory submission will help you to get more back links and you will get more one way links as google gives more weight to one way links.as your back links increase it will definitely help.
It helps for both And in my opinion Rankings are way more important .... I got some nice rankings just from webdirectory submissions Regards
if you are a starter then start with 1) dmoz 2) yahoo dir 3) yahoo kids directory and try some more top directory with pr8,9+ [not too many] then you will have lot's of pr4-7, try to find the free ones. also paid is good, then it deponds on you, how much you can spend.
To get into Yahoo and Dmoz isn't easy unless you have some $ and a good quality site. So I wouldn't recommend them to a starter at all. Page rank distribution depends on the page where you are listed and the number of outbound links on that page. Some directories are indexed pretty frequently and some may provide traffic too if you are in an extremely niche category. Rotate your descriptions and other stuff though.
That is the first post that I have seen about Dmoz. I totally agree with Dmoz and Yahoo. It is my experience that Dmoz and Yahoo take sites that are newer but has the right ingredients like, good content, an about us page, a contact us page, and a privacy policy. I would wait about a week after submitting to Yahoo and Dmoz and start linking your site wherever you can put it, in relevent catagories that is, and recipricating with 100% relevent sites and then you will be on the road to Rank Land!!
Agreed. If the pages have pagerank - awesome. If not, it's still a backlink. Changing your anchor text around will make your site rank better for more phrases
it is not easy to get listed in DMOZ,You have to make proper title and description for your site.other wise they will decline your request.so my advise is to study other sites which is already listed and than go for submission.

Directory Submissions do help in getting one way links to your site so if those links are good quality links with decent Pagerank, they would definitely boost your site's pagerank. Here's another list of free directories you can use to submit your site to : http://www.addurl.nu
Directory links are good quality links thats most of the time links from relevant catgeory to your website, thats increase the TrustRank of your link, and also its one way link so what else is better
Directory submissions is good for gaining free one way links and attain good rankings (if you do it right)
Make sure you don't start firing off to any old directory though. No link is better than an irrelevant link.
i did more search engine submission.. Directory submission or search engine submission which will help more to get good rankings?
Search engine submission has nothing to do with page rank, it will even hurt you, because you are letting know to the search engine what you are doing..and directory submissions, yes they are helphul, but some of them, not really..maybe it can make your website sick...
Hey DSB, do you really believe no link is better than an irrelevant link? In that case, I could penalize a competitor by buying them irrevelant links? That goes against what I understood. I am interested in your opinion.
