    rickgray and OP had good ideas.
    a wide variety of anchor text (though mostly these days concentrate on the brand name) and descriptions are essential. you can do a lot with descriptions of 350-500 characters which is what most directories will allow - many variations/different descrptions will add to the appeal of the Detail page and also allow you to target many different keywords/search phrases too

    Directory submission is good for website to take more backlinks and increase traffic but one disadvantage it should be done on daily basis. if you leave it then after one or two month your website will be back to square one.

    It is believed by the experts of SEO that multiple directory submission can help a lot when it comes to quality link building. Submission to one or two web directories may not help much.

    I'm asking myself if, at beginning, Google used the Directory submission... If not, how could they climb to the top? :confused:

    Directory submissions are definitely beneficial as they help in the increasing the backlinks of the website, provided the website is being submitted in high PR directories.

    Web directory submissions are very helpful, particularly for new sites that don't yet have PR or traffic, but useful for any site, as long as you are submitting to well maintained directories. As your site becomes more of a part of the Internet, and starts picking up some natural backlinks, and you start making some money from it, it makes sense to get pickier about where you submit your site. That might be the time to shell out the big bucks for listings in Yahoo or some of the other more expensive ones.

    I don't know about the rest of you but I have about a hundred domains, and am not at all in the position to pay the costs involved in submitting them all to directories that charge upwards of a hundred bucks for a review.

    I submit my new sites to directories that are well maintained, and to categories that are not bad neighborhoods, despite the fact that they may not have pagerank, because I believe that a listing in a well-run web directory will eventually become worthwhile as long as they keep plugging away at it, and because I can afford submission fees of from five to twenty-five dollars, with an occasional splurge for one of the more expensive ones.

    In recent years, such a plan does not give me instant PageRank but I am one hundred percent persuaded that it does increase my sites' positions in the SERPs as long as I'm not submitting my site to those directories that are intended only to relieve suckers of their money. These would be the ones that are little more than a return of the old free-for-all sites (for those who remember them), which now want money.

    Personally, I don't think directories submitting are of those important. I would suggest, pick some 20 directories with good page rank and submit. It may take months but this tactic is useful. :)
