Directory Submissions: Worthy or Not Worthy of your time?

[bonusgeek]

Yeah i understand. I thought of that :-)

Thanks for the tip - I did see your site on many of the directories by the way how do you find them doing for you?

Stevo!

Hard to say man. I probably get a few hits from time to time, but my guess is it's from other webmasters. For me directories are a good starting point for a new site, it helps me get them indexed and get the balling rolling with a few links coming from pages related to gambling which is always good. I just don't go overboard with submissions anymore like I used to.

Yeah makes sense i understand... Would you agree many many back links is good for Position at all?

Thanks for sharing mate.

I'm with Bonusgeek on this - I use directory submissions to get indexed and get a small foothold in the search engines. The thing is that : submissions is all very well and good, but you need to get ONTO the directories. There's loads of services out there that will SUBMIT your sites to thousands of directories, but if you only get listed on 10 or so, what's the point.

I still use digixmas, but only submit to those with PR3 or better, and then only once a month. Really don't put alot of emphasis on directories but is still a piece of the pie to round out your seo. don't even think about using the free verison, just spend the $10 a URL I think it was and get the paid version.

What's the difference on traffic on directories from diffrent parts of the globe?

It doesn't hurt to apply but read up on which programs you would use to submit your listings and don't do it too often.

If bigger sites can help you to buy searches, a link from the directory of a casino page would be worth $30 bucks.

i think its better to find good High PR directories then 100 pr1-pr0

Every link counts when your trying to build a strong link profile, and directory submissions are still okay. As long as they don't cost too much e.g. Botw.org. I don't believe in paying too much for a single link as its not likely to make much difference to your rankings. If they are quality directories with a one-time fee, are reasonably priced, and they have a gambling section, then I say go for it.
