i have experienced some bogus directory that is why i m posting some trick to check the directory. >> Check robot.txt file and make sure that where u r submitting your link that page should not be disallow for crawler to indexing it. >> Check that directory owner is not just giving text instead of link on anchor tag.for that u can check other submitted links on that directory. >> Check source code of that page for meta tags in which some directory provides tag for robot with nofollow or noindex.so ignore those directory. >> Check, if that page is indexed or not and date of last indexed so u may have some ideas about index rate of that page. i face the above problem so i tried my best to share it.it any one have other ideas regarding to directory submission than plz share it. thanks jignesh
Have you please got a list of the bogus directories I would be interested in the list by PM (so no free publicity here) The list would be helpful for all at DP so that they will save being scammed Thanks for your help
Uhm and all those directories look like crap anyway, so dont submit to any directory that looks bad and your safe.
