Do posting your site in directories really bring in a high PR ranking and traffic. I have listed in a few and have yet to see any solid or any traffic as of yet
I realize you are new around here but please look around and see what has already been discussed. There are two other threads currently showing on the first page of this section of the forums that discuss this same issue. As to your question...getting traffic and "high PR" take much more effort than simply submitting to a "few" directories. May I suggest you spend some time over in the SEO and general marketing areas of Digital Point where I think you will learn more about both. Directory submissions will help but they are not the be all end all.
In time i guess it could help your pr, traffic wise it will push your serps so traffic from the search engines, all with lots of effort and time. Mix it up though, directories with other forms of promotion.
Whatever promotion technique you use, you will need to do a great deal of it, "a few" of anything isn't going to do the trick, if you're submitting to directories , make as any submissions as you can afford , with regards to time and cost
Thanks for the feedback, I did look at other thread but I wanted to engage in conversation with other users sine I am new. I have been submitting my site to several directories and have tried other promotional techniques and I am getting a fairly small amount of traffic but I am also trying to build some cotent. Thanks for your help.
