Directory Submissions
-
Hello All.
Our site has 17,000 links from over 300 route domains but none from directories.
Using open site explorer i've found tons of paid and free directories but Its so time consuming manually submitting.
Is it better to take the time to check each directory manually or should I look at some kind of automated service?
Cheers
Todd

Good idea on outsourcing! I can get someone internally to go through the manual submissions.
Does anybody recommend a company to source and submit the information?
Or any decent software?

If you've found them, why not give the category you're looking at submitting too the once over to make sure it's worth it, then when you've got your list just outsource the actual manual work? Once you get in the groove the checking doesn't take long.

better check using a software there are lots of them on web.

Getting two BOTW.org listings? Regular drirectory + blog directory?
I have a start-up website. It's a niche market that's not all that competitive. I'm trying to get going with some basic link building, and I'm trying to focus for the time being on some recommended directories: BOTW, yahoo, business.com, etc. I already have a regular BOTW directory listing, accepted a few days ago. I'm wondering if it's worth also getting a BOTW blog directory listing? So two BOTW listings, the first pointing to the homepage, the second would point to the blog. If there is meaningful link juice to be passed, would there be an advantage of having two links? Or will the one I already have suffice? Also, since the site is new, I only have a few blog posts. Is BOTW likely to reject me because my blog is too thin? The posts I have are content-heavy (1000-2500 words per entry), but there's just not a large total quantity yet. Normally I wouldn't consider it, but they're having a cyber-monday sale today where it's 50% off the regular price, so it makes the decision easier. Thanks.

Link Directories - Good or bad?
I've just done a search on open site explorer for a competitors site that has is ranked number one. Most of their highest authority backlinks are from link directories. I just read an article on here saying to stay away from directories that state things like 'seo friendly directory'. Many of my competitors links are from these kind of sites! Will it harm me to get links from such sites? It seems to be working for my competitors.... confused.com!

Link Directory
I am not an SEO expert by any means, just trying to improve the ranking of my own personal real estate site. Are directory links good for backlinks, or are they a waster of time?
