Benefits in submitting in Page rank zero directories. • In most of the directories you will get free regular links. • In most of the directories you will get low price featured links. • In future there are good chances to get high page rank to these directories. • You get fast approval in most of these directories. If you see some more benifits you can add here.I have listed down what i feel personally. List of such directories i have listed down at www.linkenterprise.com Thanks
Look Directory Reviews are beneficial they do offer value, although we as a company only submit to Directories who offer paid reviews In fact we have spent 200USD in the last 24 hours, in Paid Reviews for one URL we are marketing and promoting That money was spent right here on DP
The only thing that's died recently is page rank along with a number of the so called quality directories that don't understand the dynamics of Better Business practices. As long as a directory is indexed the link counts and one link is much the same as another unless you are talking about site with genuine authority status. What you don't now is the long term value of these or in these troubled times, any directories.
How can you say there is a good chance that these directories will get high PR? today most free directories are owned by webmasters who basically 100% don't care what they accept, only thing they care about is having the "most links".
long time ago I submitted my blog to all the PR0 directories I could.. and now some of them have PR 2-3-4, and my listing is well positioned because I submitted my link at the time when the directory was not full of links. Free directories have the tendency to become paid, but when they are small and PR 0, some of them accept free listings in the begining. This could be your chance if you do not want to spend money on link development. hyper
And what does this fact have to do with PR? OK I agree that most of them are low quality, crappy directories. Maybe they don't have any content, maybe the quality of submitted sites is low. That means they will not rank well in SEs. It has nothing to do with PR. PR comes from link popularity. So if a webmaster promotes a site and manages to have good backlinks, PR will come. (ie if PR continues to exist - I personally doubt that). Quality and PR are two different things. A crappy site could still gain PR with the right backlinks (back in the old days). Of course it is possible that noone will earn PR anymore if google decides so. After all directory submissions are not (or shouldn't be) used for PR purposes. Even if we consider that PR will continue being as it was, most directories don't have a high listing page PR (very few have a PR of 3+ on listing pages), and with the amount of outgoing links, the PR juice passed is minimum, if any. Directories are used, or should be used to improve SERPs. However this is also a tactic google doesn't like and that has created all the fuss about directories.
I am having one Page rank 3 Directory www.zihh.com many time i offers free inclusion offer. But now it is On 1St page of Google for keyword "website directory". So now i made it paid but who submitted to my directory all are benefited.
even though i run a fairly new pr0 directory i am very picky about who i accept. I know that one day my site will be ranked high and I am keeping it the same way that i would keep it if it was a pr6 directory right now. Which means keeping pr0 links to a min since most pr0 sites that are submitted to my directory are spam sites. it also means evaluating each site before just approving anything. And it also means keeping quality content on the site so that it is just now ' another directory '
Google gets excited when 'use' turns into 'abuse'. Think about it rationally. If the vast majority of directory owners were only approving the right sort of sites and rejecting the wrong sort of sites it would benefit Google and improve the search results. So the problem is not back links per se but rather the fact that the majority of directory owers are approving sites being submitted by spammers, scammers and abusers. Similarly not all sites with zero content and zero PR are crappy sites. Everyone has to start somewhere and we should be encouraging web masters to enter this industry and to help us build a resource that could be made to work for all, including Google.
Please point out these scammers, spammers and abusers, so that we can all check our directories and abide by the almighty guidance and expertise of your bullsh*t.
You could start with your own. Are you not the Directory Owner who massaged his site up to a PR9 and who lost his sense of humour when he got shopped to Google? Correct me if I am wrong but thats the way I heard it. Have you also been penalised this time around? Would be fascinated to take a quick peek at your long term strategic plans.
Post your FACTS now! otherwise, *you* are the scammer. 1. i was unaware i had a pr9 site 2. i've hardly lost my sense of humor. (you 'the joke of all jokes' are still around) 3. where is google's official release stating a 'penalization' Where are your facts. post them or YOU ARE A SPAMMING SCAMMER.... back it up, or shut up!
Soon after I joined the forum one of the members advised me that I shouldn't put too much store in a debate that was taking place in one of the threads as one of the parties was unreliable. He had apparently shopped you to Google for selling PR. If its not true its not true. But that's why I asked.
No you did NOT ask. You just accused me. You CANT back up your claim, because you are a SPAMMING SCAMMER
hmmmm... anxiously awaiting the next thread Workshop moves on to hijack with his nonsense... we need to start a thread where we can 'bet' on which sentence will be taken out of context next and which real argument will be ignored... hmmm... would that be a 'directory with value'? lol A mix of bidding with threads from DP instead of websites? A TRUE gambling directory.
If everyone has had their fun would it be too much to ask if we could continue where we left off..................
