List of the best directories (IMO)

Here is a list of some directories that I regularly submit to. Any other suggestions is appreciated (the list is not in any particular order):

• BOTW
• Alive
• Aviva
• Seven Seek
• Site Sift
• Dir Journal
• Authority
• DirectoryMix
• Wow Directory
• Joeant

 

So why is this thread exactly buddy? to promote my own directories or to promote other good directories?

 

there , i took my own directories out.

the thread is to share a list of good directories with others (and I considered my own directories good too), but perhaps some people (like you) saw it differently

 

What criteria are you using?

 

I missed the pre-edit post but if you had included your own directories in that list I would have asked the same question?

 

The criteria I'm using are that "they have worked for me". Simple

Submitting to all of those directories cost about $500 for normal submissions and over $1000 for featured submissions. That is why they are not for everyone. If your site can return that much (or more) by submitting to these directories then you should submit to them.

Maybe I should not have disclosed the list though. The less publicity about them "working" the less G would bother them.

 

But how have they worked for you? I've also submitted to some of the directories in your list but haven't had much traffic from them apart from JoeAnt.

 

what are you trying to accomplish by submitting to directories? Traffic? Brand Establishing? SE Ranking?

 

Don't answer a question with a question.

 

well, you are asking a question that related to different webmasters differently.

You should decide what YOU want to accomplish by submitting to a directory and decide whether the directory is worth it.

If you want to know MY business plan about submitting to directories, I would have to give you a different one for every one my websites.

I submit some of my sites for establishing my brand and some of them to gain back traffic (amount of traffic is irrelevant, ROI is what counts) plus other reasons that change from site to site.

 

Fair enough of a stab at me.

However, now it's my turn to stab back....

Did you even bother to realize that BOTH dirjournal and authoritydirectory and their 'features' are derived from directorymix; Meaning, directorymix makes and has them, and DJ and AD ordered and had them implemented.

So, the so called features/flashy cool stuff in directorymix, that you seem to have chosen to knock, are the exact same 'Loved Features' you just finished your post off with.

Your post of 'comparison' as to what someone else has, and what you 'Love so much on others' is hypocritical to say the least, and that makes you a hypocrit.

The next time you choose to look on both sides of the fence, perhaps next time it would be better to know what you are talking about first, before jumping to hypocritical conclusion.

If you want to speak category structure, directorymix is different and revamped.

If you want to speak design, hahaha, directorymix is a gorgeous design.

You know what, all that I can say about your post to summarize it up is; Duh

 

i think it was just a misunderstanding,

Actually, come to think of it , I forgot to mention Zorg in the list.

 

IMO you can use the word "you like" but not "best" directory list,
It's more acceptable.

 

I agree, not like we have bias reviews around this forum or anything

 

The title reads: " List of the best directories (IMO) "

I think that explains that this is my personal "Best Directories List"

 

"IMO" abbreviation for In My honest Opinion You dint add the word honesty in there,...may ask why? not to doubt you or anything, but you did add your own directory and your friend Rob C (aka, an0n) in that list, again, not to say that they are not the "best" and I think both are the best too...In My honest Opinion.

 

Why not? We list foreign language sites.

IMHO is more used for humble then honest opinion. See Acronymfinder.

So he might not be honest, but humble.
