Will submitting to high PR directories bring up your PR?

    I was thinking about hiring a company to submit my website to some high PR directories. Will this bring up my PR or is it a waste of money?

    It will definitely help you.. once the link page crawled by Googlebot, you will get a increase in number of backlinks.
    But, its a time consuming process.

    I agree that is usually the first step I take on a new site. Not the best SEO but definately an important step IMO

    It's quite easy to do this yourself, by typing in `list of high page rank link directories' in your search bar. I just did this and found a list. Make sure the list is up to date though, some of the directories on the list that I found didn't have any page rank, must have lost it in the recent update.

    Yes it will help. It will increase your PR but may or may not increase your SERPs.

    Not sure. High PR directories won't give you links for free.

    I don't think so. First, you can't find most of your links from directories in google webmasters tools and also Yahoo even though your website's link has been accepted since a long time ago. Second, your website is not listed in those directories' home page but only in a specific webpage (for example, website about fitness, then your website is listed in category fitness). I think most of those specific webpages have almost no PR at all. But if your website is get listed in the home page of that directory, it would be considered as paid links because Google is hitting on many paid directories these days. I think directories are still good but obviously it's not too important.

    You will get a PR in 1 to 2 months time if you get your website submitted to your niche. Not just all directories. Also it would matter a lot if you get some links from PR pages. Then its sure to get good PR over 6 months say 3 to 4.

    Let us know if you need any help

    Sincerely,

    yes it will help you but its not a guarantee that you can achieve your objectives by only doing that procedure! optimizing a site is a very long procedure that will requires you so much time. but if you want to hire a company to boost your site to become a search engine friendly and get a high pr that converts a lot of traffic and sales I recommend Team Creatives my team is specialized in web marketing.

    I think you can submit to free directories by yourself. It is better to have it free than wasting money for PR...
