    "Now here's the key to the law of accumulation. It says that everything counts. Everything that you do counts. The biggest mistake that people make is they think that only what they want to count, counts." -Brian Tracty

    The bonus you get is not big. But it`s something that accumulates...

    Still, my suggestion is to invest your time in something with bigger rewards, submitting to directories I think it's training for the beginners in SEO/marketing, or for those that start with nothing.

    I would like to ask about the average awaiting approve time for directories that you most submit. I saw that if you would get approve, you have to invest for paid submission.

    I agree, especially with the linkfarm bit. I've read that it's best to stay away from bad neighborhoods.

    It's an easy (ish) way to get links and can help with reinforcing keywords if you get the link text right.
