Well friends, I am trying to get quality backlinks for my blog. Directory submission or article directory submission which one is better as far link building is concerned? Waiting for your feedbacks. Thanks in advance.
For me, it's article submission. Some directories add the nofollow tags in their outgoing links so it wouldn't count as a backlink for your blog.
Articles submissions are one of the best approach. But directory submission has it's value. Build 10-30 directory backlink every week for your websites.
But, i found that article submission is not very much better because if different webmasters place your article with the links to your website then it is the duplication of articles and it is not liked by search engines.
I would mostly submit to web directories and write an article or two a week. Comment on other blogs that are related to your niche. You will likely get traffic from those links, which is something most article and web directory listings do not deliver. You may also want to submit your RSS feed to RSS feed directories. Make sure that the content on you blog is high quality and post often. This will keep people coming back. Good luck
I have no problem with submitting the same articles to hundreds of article directories. Search engines NEVER penalize my sites. And page rank of my sites increased. But you MAY NOT submit articles which written by anyone else (stolen articles) to article directories.
Article submissions is one of the worst method in SEO. Why we need to distribute own rich content in the love of links. How many of you find articles directories links in Google link command. Very few are there, Forum links are better than articles. I will go with dofollow blog and directories. Still there are thousands of sources available. some one above described, that search engine may find it's duplicacy of content, may happens some times, But i hate article links, i have more than 450 best article directories list but i don't like to use it.
