    A link to your website is what a directory is. You submit your website link to be added to the directory.

    Directory submission is one of the many ways to build backlinks. Directory submission also gives you the option of choosing your choice of anchor text. Deep links directories are even more worthful to diversify the linking urls.

    When it comes to building back links you should keep in mind the you should use all different types of methods for obtaining these links. Keep in mind that directory submission is important but it is not the only method you should be using.

    Directory submission is a valid method for getting backlinks, but don't overdo it and only submit to directories with a rank of PR4 or better. Also make sure you submit your link to the correct category, or it will just give you a dodgy link that could get you penalised if you do it enough.

    Over the years I have submitted to thousands of free directories, as well as a few reputable, human-edited paid ones. But in the last few years I've submitted to very few free directories.

    My suspicion — and this is only my suspicion, not a known fact — is that Google is probably not giving much value at all to free directories. Think about it, do we need 1,000 different copies of our city's phone book?!!
