Hi SEOMOZ'ers
I am trying to find high quality directories to submit links, finding it really hard to find them!!
Has anyone got any advise for seeking out such sites! I have tried the tool within SEOMOZ but to be honest did not really work that well!
thanks

Hi Diane. Its not $20 per url but per campaing. For free you can submit into 150 directories. For 20$ you can submit into all the directories in the program database.

just been looking at fast submitter which charges $20 a url. has anyone used this and if so is it any good, did anyone notice a difference to traffic and ranking

Thanks Keri

Here's a recent post about best practices for link building with directories that might help you.

Fast dir. submitter allows you to specify several titles and descriptions and to change them during the process. I think it would be better to submit to few directories per day with random titles and descriptions.

Hey, Thanks for the link is it ok to submit your site to almost any directories you can find? or does Google look at it as spaming or something ?

Thanks that is a great help.
Regarding Majestics, I really cannot afford to pay for any other seo tools at the moment!
Cheers

You need to do abit of research to create a solid list. (1) Search for "directory website lists" on google. Probably the best but most time consuming. (2) You can also have a go at this site - http://www.linkbuilderstoolkit.com/ however there will be a few expired sites since it hasnt been updated in a while. (3) Another way is to view your clients Google Webmaster Tools account and pull the external links pointing to the site. Then use Majestics Clique Hunter to compare with other similar competitors to find new linking opportunities. Hope this helps, Vahe

Why am is my PR # dropping after signing up for quality directories?
I have followed the suggestion regarding quality inbound linking from reputable sites....ie open directory, yahoo, and only directories recommended by other SEO groups and only with PR's of 4 or higher. After listing, my PR # went down. How do I find the culprit to start reversing this? My fear is I am on a downward slope..Thanks!

Adding a directory and aggregated content to my ecommerce site
I'd like to add a directory of websites to my ecommerce site. We operate within a nice niche both in terms of products and demographics. The directory would be specific to our verifical and market. My concern is how Google will see these external links. A reciprocal link won't be required to be in our directory, but I suspect many sites would like back to us as we outreach to them with content ideas, their directory links, and as we share them with our social network on twitter and facebook. The directory would be broken down into categories so each page may have 1-20 external links on it. Our architecture already incldes category links (all internal) so these would be in additional the links you would normally see on our site. I'd also like to aggregate some content - again, mostly external links. Will Google have take poorly to that aggregation?

When is it time to buy a $100+ paid directory listing?
I have been working on a site for 11 months, everything is looking great. Apart from a small amount of highly important keywords which rank #2 to #5. 1. How will I know if I need to invest in a paid directory? 2. Will one listing be enough to make a difference? I am looking at a listing at BOTW.org. Other recommendations welcome.

How do you feel about article directories?
Hello, I am a beginner in SEO and I have been reading a lot recently about article directories and article marketing. I have already started writing for article directories, ezinearticles particularly, but I still have mix feelings about it: does it really worth spending some time to write unique articles and to submit them to directories? How does Google feel about it? What do you think about small linkwheel strategies to give some weight to the content you create?

Can Low Quality Directories Hurt?
I realize that links from low quality directories aren't of much value. Having said that, can doing this kind of linking actually penalize a site?
