    directory submission is good and one of the basic type or category on link building...there are a lot of free directories online...you can search through google by typing lists of directories or lists of free directories...each directories have different ways of submission but usually there will be a form where you'll type information such as the url of your site, title, description, and keywords...its easy so just try it once and you'll find it easy to do...

    Search for quality web directories, there are many out there. For starters, try www(dot)dmoz(dot)org so you can experience it, it's free and it's the most respected directory in the internet. Just make sure you choose the correct category for your site to be indexed properly by searched engines.

    Lastly, read and follow carefully the submission guidelines and Terms of Services (TOS), quality web directories are human edited, meaning editorial staff are going to review your site. Avoid automated directories.

    I heard google is not paying too much importance to directory entries. Because a lot of outbound links from a single page with little content.

    Submitting to directories is one of the most straightforward ways to build links to your websites, however such a practice is not without problems, there is a prevalence of small directories and directory operators who mainly exist to swindle you. For instance a directory operator may constantly launch new directories, focusing all the PageRank they have on the new ones, to make it look like an attractive submission, then eventually they may get banned for manipulating PageRank etc, or submissions dwindle, and they open a new one, forsaking the old one. Meaning, that nice listing you paid for, quickly evaporates.

    Directories alone also cannot be your only link building endeavor, you need other types of links as well, that being said, here is how I go about doing directory submissions.

    Directory submission is one of the best way to earn one way links to your website. There are lots of free directory websites i.e. directory critics, vmoptions. First you should go for good PR directory submission services to your website as you get approval to your website, you should go for niche directory submission and regional directory submissions. This process will make your website more and more popular at search engine and you will get more and more traffic with good search engine ranking.
