I did 200 directory submissions and 200 social bookmarks and I only jumped from serp position #13 to #11?? Do you think I did something wrong, or is directory submission and social bookmarking really dead after the Panda update?
Congrats dude. are you sure that all of your submissions are accepted? check the rank regularly to ensure that the rank is permanent. thanks
What you did is right. Now, I suggest you to go to the next step by building links from related and high quality sites.
