I have added my blog to many directories, but when i search for my blog on google i can not find any backlinks from these directories, so i am asking my self now and ask you also, are directories really generate backlinks or not, if it real, what are the directories you use ? cause i have tried a lot of them with no result,... thanx
Directories are not fake.depends upon their popularity. some popular directories won't accept all websites.
As stated, just because you submitted your site doesn't mean it's auto accepted. Also some directory owners are pretty slow with accepting. If it's a one man show with potentially hundreds of submissions a day it's also possible they have just not gotten round to reviewing submissions.
Directories are as real as they come. If you submit your site to a well known and high PR directory, you will definitely get backlinks to your site. Maybe you should be patient, as it might take little time before you see results.
Even if your website is listed in on that directory Google will probably not show it as a backlink. Why? Google doesn't show much. But you might find it in google's webmaster tool. and yahoo explorer.
Submitting to directories is a great way to build links and increase your search engine rankings. When choosing directories going for the paid ones can be better, mainly because the links seem to last a lot longer.Because directories are generally quite large, they need a certain amount of PageRank to get all of their pages indexed properly. Maybe your links are still not indexed?
may be because I am using a blog, but later i have started a new website it may work for it. Am I right ?
yea directories should work - liek the thread says - sometimes it takes a v long time to be accepted. They aren't the most powerful links in the world, but they do work and it is a natural place to find a link to a website. Ideally you need your link to be pahsed into content. sometimes i have better experiences with submitting articles to the directories! Directories are low power links, but things like page rank originate from directory links - thus add your site to yahoo! directory for just 300 smackers and next pr update you will show at least pr1. Good luck
May be you are not getting backlinks for your blog because directories take some time to live your links. Directories are more useful to create backlinks for website or blog but you should use only high PR directories.
Directories are not fake , Almost right and working properly, basic purpose is to use the back links. You can submit the sites through software or can be manually.
They are not fake...but it depends...Which directories have you submitted to and how did you do the submission?
I can assure you that all my directories are real. When I've added some of my sites (where I can check the analytics) to the directories, the links show up. Just got to pick some that have been around for a while, submit to the correct category and away you go.
it takes awhile for your site to be accepted. directories is very good for getting High Ranking in search Engines !!
