Non English Directory submission

    Im just helping some friends from Germany who are currantly accepting free submissions to their directory http://www.easycrawler.eu/. Their English isnt too hot and rely on google translations to open a thread announcing their new service.

    The question is, is it worth submitting their directory to hundreds of directory sites. They were thinking of approx 400-500 submissions they currantly looking for a reliable submission service to get this job done. As far as I remember, there are not many sites that accept submissions of German ( or any non-English ) sites.

    I have my own directory and to be honest I cant see the difference in what language the site is in.

    So....once again, here is the question. Do most directories accept non- english sites or not ???

    Any feedback would be great

    I think most directories reject no english sites (I also do it as it is difficult to understand other languages)

    I m sure your right. On the other hand, accepting foreign sites could bring you more traffic though. I make a point of accepting all sites as long as they stick to the guidelines.

    I accept any languages on all of my directories, But since I can't read or understabd 99.9% of what it says on there, I have a category just for them based on there location and I think alot of directories have the same thing. It's called Regional or World category and sometimes it goes deeper by countries category.

    That's true, but how can you review the sites in other languages, most people only speak 1-3 languages :)

    Only those big directories have a category called region or world which accepts non-English websites, most of the medium and small directories doesn't accept such websites.
