    Directories have their content submitted by people manually while search engines have the content indexed... The content of directories are included in their internal files while search engines doe not..

    IMO, make some backlinks and SEs will find your site and so, I dont submit sites to SEs. Also, its oki to submit sites to some established and clean web directories

    don't waste your time (and money) submitting to SEs, build backlinks and they'll find you.
