Hi every one, Recently I heard from a guy that directory submission in the only SEO he does. Is there any one like this. If you have done, is there any good SERPS results. Let us discuss...
Directory submission alone can work for some sites. On top of directory submissions i concentrate on seo within my sites (definately dont forget about that) blog commenting too.
I make sure I get the on page SEO done correctly then focus mostly on directory submissions and trading some reciprocals with other sites respected in my niche. By just doing those two things I've had very good success.
This is not 100% perfect !! many sites ranking do work with directory submission. but few niched site won't rank enough. there's a simple calculation junk can't provide much as that of gold. most of directory are just like junk. Proper Social media practice adds great value to links and world of popularity.
I believe submission to good directories does improve a site's SE ranking overall irrespective of it's age. However, marketing is not just about SEO(...)
absolutely not... Actually I feel that as I have improved my SEO skills, i spend less and less time on directory submission
I always recommend that directory submission should be one method in your bag of tricks. You should also use other methods of link building.
For some site, it's 100% guaranteed effective, but in my opinion, it's better if you also do the other link building techniques if you want to improve your site and rankings.
As well as backlinks, you should get a little traffic from the high PR, high Alexa directories I would have thought.
Well, its nice to have listed in good directories in the relevant category but we should use other methods also like social bookmarking, article submission, press releases etc.
Well if you are ranking for a not very competitive keyword then directory submission could work very well for that site. But like people before me said, use other tricks as well and dont put all of your eggs in one basket
