    Hey Guys,

    I like to know how to do SEO for a web directory?

    Can any one tell how to promote a new free web directory to get more traffic and links.

    Is it good to have a free directory rather than a website?

    Is it Right that Web directories do not need SEO as such they are made from a ready made scripts ?

    Please help me to know more about marketing strategies for a web directory.

    Thank you guys.

    I would do my best to build as many links as you can to your new directory. Maybe a program like digiXMAS would help you out of Internet Business Promoter.
    If your directory has high PR, ppl will more then likely pay for a listing.

    It's good to have a free option as well as paid.

    For the SEO of your directory I wouldn't suggest going with category SQL dumps that thousands of people are already using. Name the categories yourself and try to be unique.
