Directory Submissions (Page 1 of 4 )
You can still get some mileage out of submitting your web site to directories. If you have been wondering which directories to submit to or how to get your site listed, this article will show you how.
In this article I hope to give you a thorough and succinct brief on how to submit to directories, when to submit to directories and which directories deserve your submissions. I have been hanging out with several pieces of directory software (which i will talk about briefly) and a great directory submissions and linking expert, Dave Fuentes. I will be drawing on our work together to write an explanatory piece about directory submissions.
Directory submission is one of the most important things to do when you are link building. It is an assured way to get solid one way links back to your desired domain or sub domain.
Before we go into the details
This next item is a major issue. I discovered that several of my clients waited until the last moment to renew their URLs, and the URLs had been back ordered by domain name resellers. These resellers are currently selling us our domains, which thanks to my clients' inaction are longer ours, for an extremely ridiculous price, which we have little choice but to pay. Now why have these URLs become so dear? It is because the web sites were great resources.
As you embark on your linking program, please remember to make sure your hold on your URL is extremely tight. Now I pay enough for domain names to cover several years in advance. This is important; fail in this area and you will find that after submitting your URL to 800-1000 directories (free and paid) you have no control over that URL anymore. Now we can go into the details.
