Finding Directories – HIGH Quality – Directory Critic REALLY???
-
I am trying to concentrate on high quality directory link building as part of my search for quality one way followed links.
My usual criteria is:
- Domain rank of at 70+
- Page ranks of 20-30+ on the actual link pages.
- Human edited
I have been finding them using loads of different resources and have occasionally used Directory Critic. (Obviously I have used the SeoMoz directory list but as we are all aware this is past it’s prime..)
Any resources or techniques other people use?

Just wanted to leave a quick note saying that SEOmoz has upgraded the Link Directory! You can view a post Cyrus wrote with more information about the directory updates and link building via directories at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/seo-link-directory-best-practices.

Yeah that's the way I am tending to go.

i have a list of 50 "General" directories that i have been submitting with each client i handle, that i compiled it over the years.
but for relevant to niche / location directories yes i do search for them.

Thank you, I do sometimes but must admit to relying too heavily on raven toolbar and SEOMoz toolbar.
Do you mainly search for your directories too?

Check the google cached date of the homepage and listing page.
the more frequent caching the more valuable

How to find inbound links to my site
Hi I purchased a rank 1 domain which i have now put a wordpress blog on. Is there a way I can see all of the inbound links to this site or any of the inbound anchor text? I want to try to rank for the keywords it used to. So really i need some historical information or at least what is linking to this domain. Thanks Chris

Should I find a way to archive high authority product pages for an e-commerce site?
One of the sites that I work on has a high turnover of products as it sells cutting-edge technology products that quickly become outdated. For each product it is important to build a strong link profile as the competition is very high. I am therefore reluctant to remove pages once products have been discontinued (typically after 6-12 months). However, I do not want discontinued products to appear alongside the latest products as this will hinder the customer experience. Is it worth me finding a way to archive the old products, so as to maintain the links that have been built up?

Directories and duplicate content.
Part of our link building strategy for a dentist is to submit their site to several relevant directories. If I enter the same description in each directory, is it possible that Google will consider this duplicate content and prevent link juice from being passed back to the dentist's site? Thanks folks, Jason
