    Hi,

    Yes, Directory submission is proven to be a wonderful method for gaining quality one- way incoming back links and improve your PR. It is a one of the easiest link building method especially for newer sites. Quality directory submission helps to increase website traffic.

    Manual Directory submissions are one of the best ways to promote your website and achieving good visibility in search engines.

    Yes it does. But dont just rely on directories. Any time google may slap you and your PR will be all gone.

    Well, considering Google calculates PR largely based on incoming links to your website, yes. Article marketing and directory submission DOES help.

    Yes. Almost every PR update, I try submitting new websites to around 1000 directories. This time I got PR1 for one of them and PR2 for a couple more. Earlier PR3 was not difficult at all.
