Many people don't realize the importance of directory quality and how they can help your Google rankings, however in this post, I'll be discussing the topic and referring also to a particular directory called "thebest of the Web" which I think is pretty decent.
Contributions directory often get a bad name for being an old school way of creating links and something that no longer works, and to a certain extent I understand this topic, but not entirely, which I will explain now.
Not all directoties are the same, some make you pay for, however this presentation ensures that you get a listing in the directory. This is not something that Google likes, as this is the same as buying a backlink, which is clearly against the terms of Google.
However other directory you charge, but do not guarantee that you have accepted, but you must still pay for your chance to be. What you are paying for is a human review of your website from the staff directory, and if they think your site is decent, then you will get accepted. Google likes these type of directory, because large are on content review.
In fact, if Google was able to, ideally would like reviewing the entire contents of the website of the human being, and even if they have their own human reviewers, there is no way they can never keep up with all Web sites on the net, so they look on other content featured human as a good guide for the charts.
A particular directory that I think is worth submitting your sites is the best of the Web. I just submitted this blog to them today, then why am I sharing this with you now. What I like is that they said that they assess all new insertions within 2 business days.
Compares this DMOZ directory, where you don't hear back from them never ever on the progress of your submission and good luck to get in there anyway. I wonder if they even half the sites that get inserted in each case to them!
Best of the Web have a cost and how to do, if you're serious about your site, then the costs as this just needs to be factored into the equation, because Google take note if you have links to quality human reviewed directory or not.
Another good to consider is the Yahoo directory, something I'm heading off to do now with this blog, and I've been meaning to do for a looooooong time now, but just keeps getting pushed to the bottom of my to do list, which is not good for my account.
Often people are worried that this directory will not accept in their affiliate marketing websites and will knock back. However this is not the case, as long as your affiliate site has decent content and is a good resource for someone, then there is no problem with affiliate links in your content.
Short but sweet people today
