Are directory submissions dead?

Submitting to Directories are not yet obsolete as long you do not abuse. You may only submit 30 directories a day is better and do some link building task..


Goodluck

 

Directories are great for varying your anchor text and getting a good list of some keywords in anchor text. If we do 1500 directory submissions, we usually have 25 to 50 different anchor texts. Has worked very well for the price.

 

Thanks for the information.. Im going to look for directory submissions now.

 

Always quality directory are usefull and get benifits also.

 

It's still useful, but just don't go crazy about it. It's not where your main efforts should be.

 

Yes, everything beyond DMOZ is a waste of your time.

 

Here is one link directory that post ur links there


http://links.letsnurture.co.cc/

 

I think that anything helps as long as you are not high PR going onto a low PR directory.
People just expect too much. Plus you never know if someone will see your link on that directory and be a lifelong reader/ buyer.
I just started out a directory. PR 0. I know this isn't great,but you have to start somewhere. But with it being new I been thanking people by commenting on blogs and posting on their forums. Kind of like they help ma and I will help them.

 

links from directories aren't worth that much, get quality links

 

They still have value
but not as much as they used to be

if you are looking for free directories check directory.com out
or hire a submitter to do this for you

 

Yes it is worth, though out of 100% directories, only 70% of them approve your link. but its worth.

 

I believed in Trust of Directory, it's help not less not much , i never ever drop it away on my SEO Plan

 

No Directory Submission are still having most importance in link building as well as in search engine ranking

 

I think it's good for back links and ranking. The biggest downfall is you never get on the front page so nobody sees you. That's why I created a directory with that feature. it's called Website Recycler.

Like others have said, it's not the most important thing but it's something that doesn't take that to do and it's easy.

 

For me, the chances to have BLs from directory submissions is around 25% - 35%. I dont see it very effective.

 

I won't say its dead. But of lately it has been so much abused that all the directories that I come across have 4,000 to 8,000 pending requests for links to be added.

Now thats huge number of pending request. Most of that could have been because of large number of forum memebers here at DP are also sending tons and tons of request for links to be added in the sites.
