Directory submission question

    I have seen that all the directories ask the webmasters to sumbit their website url freely.They aslo dont ask for reciprocal linking.But during submission they ask for a reciprocla linking page where they want their directory url to be present first before we submit our links to that particular directory.I just dont understand this!!!When they are saying its one way linking then why do they ask for reciprocal linking?????Also after our link is accepted can we remove their links from our pages??Can that be done?????

    If it is advertised as no reciprocal, you either click the options for link with no reciprocal or you add your link and leave the line for reciprocal blank. It is just built into the script of most directory scripts. If they say no reciprocal ignore that line.

    If it does require a reciprocal and you put one up and then remove it, the script normally has a link checker and it will detect it and the owner will remove your link from the directory.

    It depend on you, If directory is useful for others, then you should reciprocate it. Otherwise there is need to provide backlink and submit your url in that directory. There are many free directories they don't require any reciprocal.

    Its on you, you can submit if you want to make reciprocal link building. Do this if its useful for your site visitors if not leave those directories.
    There are many other directories where you can submit your link without reciprocal link building.
    If you want the list of free directories, PM me

    Hi,

    It is not that you must have a backlink while submitting in a free directory. Most of the free directories have 2 options, one is you must have their link on your site so that they list your site sooner, and the other is you need not have their link in your site but in this case you listing will be displayed even after 2 months of time. You can choose either of the options according to the quality of the directory.

    What you say is unethical ... both from your and there side

    Just ignore those reciprocal ones and go to next dir
