Is the Business.Com Directory Worth the $300

    The title says it all. I'm not a web developer but I do actively plug our own SEO. I'm seriously considering the $300 yearly Business.Com Directory listing as it's a PR9 Directory and I'm thinking it might just boost our PR?

    What you think everyone?

    Won't boost your pr, but will give your site a bit more credibility. However, I used it before and saw little or no changes in pr or rankings.

    Well, I won't use it then. What's the best way to boost PR?

    I think also that it will not effect on pr of your website! There also a lot of free directories that give some results

    It can pay off in the long run, but it's not absolutely necessary in order to succeed. I think if you can afford it, go ahead, otherwise just wait until you make enough to cover the costs.
