hello guys, if i send my website to 100 directories how many of them will include my site?? supposing that my website is a good one and i picked up the right category ....
Probably all of them, but it depends of what kind of directories they are: if they're shitty, low-value ones they'll sure include everything provided you pay them the price. However, if they're quality, authoritative directories you'll need to do better than that. Also, I wouldn't advise you go down this route. i'm not sure you heard about Penguin update before, but it WILL ruin all you rankings if you go through with this hundred of low-value directory submissions. The top directories that are still worth your while (and money) are: Yahoo Best of The Web Joeant In my opinion, Steve
i think 30%....... most of webmaster dont even bother to approve them becuase they are too busy. also there might be a huge number of pending sites before you so it can even take one year to be listed.
If you use a directory submission software, you will get low directory inclusion rate - maybe under 10%. If you want to get better, you need to submit a site to directories manually or you hire someone do it.
I second the manual submission. Looks, VOLUME is not how you increase your visibility or reachability. QUALITY is. You're better off to find a handful of good relevant niche' and general directories that you can manually submit your entries too. Stay away from the freebie instant submission ones. While it may seem like a good thing listing 100 times, even with a 30% inclusion rate, you really have to take into account what you may be including yourself in. Do your homework and list manually!
If you are talking about submitting to free web directories, the inclusion rate will make you be disappointed.
30% sounds about right. But it could be a little lower than that. I all depends on the quality of your website and whether or not you're submitting to the appropriate category. Many directory owners won't take the time to correct your listing if it isn't in the perfect directory. They'll automatically deny your site.
depend your luck. lol. i have to submit to some directory last 6 month then today they send an approval e-mail. just submit and act like nothing happen. lol
