Are Directory Submissions Still Relevant?

November 12, 2007 – 12:06 pm

I read that being listed on directories would help in raising our ranks but from what I understand, quite a few of these directories have been spanked as well so how would that be helpful?

The problem is that with blogs like mine, not all directories would accept my submission.

Moreover, the thing that makes me lose faith in the strength of being listed in Directories is that we have to list on specific categories, usually no category for blogs and we end up with an incoming link from the inner pages of a directory. So yeah, a directory may have a rank of six or even higher but its inner pages most probably will only be a three or two. Four, at the most.

And it would be most disheartening if after all the hard work, we find that the directory has been demoted. Bah!

The other day, I was introduced to the services of a company that charges labour for manual submissions to 100 directories with a minimum rank of five. I still have not decided if I should go with them, or look for one that charges cheaper, or do it myself. Frankly, I cannot afford the time.

But in the first place, would listing my blogs be a problem to those directories?
