There are thousands of directories, and 10 new everyday, you can spend your life time submitting to directories and spend fortune if you are so inclined. But does it help?

It would be great if you opine out of personal experience.

Directory submission do not means that your website is added to that particular directory(s). Its just a way of requesting the directory owner to index your website.

It is true that PR is increased with the help of Directory Submission. But it is also true that it will lave the published email with spams.

I think this way helps to increase pr. you will get backlinks from there

Do you remember that pr depends of backlinks ?

Yes. Directory submission will surely help you to increase PR. but do not waste your time on low pR directory site. Do submit on high pr site with relevant category of your site.

Directories are still effective. I know that you have submitted your website link to numerous directories still you are not getting benefits. I would tell you one thing clearly, when you submit your links to directories then its not sure that the directory owner will index your link.

Directory submission do not make you sure that your website is submitted in directories, its just that you are requesting the directory owner to index your link.

I've been able to get to a PR3 with free directory submissions alone. I've had to get some other more quality links to get up to PR4 and PR5.

Directory submission surely helps the ranking of your website. Try to submit your link in high pr directories.

freelance-seo · #49 (**permalink**) 07-07-2009, 05:04 PM

In my opinion nope! But, I believe some of the best directories do help, however that comes at a price!

Its just fodder links in most instances - use them to hide your golden links

they pass a little PR, not worth a massive amount of time though.

I have done directory submission for one of my sites, one year ago. I submitted to more than 1000 directories. But in Google Webmaster tools, I only see 10 or so backlinks coming from those directories.

So now, I only submit my sites to only top few directories. There are at least 10 good directories but all of them will require a review fee.

Backlinks from good directories will help.

buttsb · #52 (**permalink**) 07-09-2009, 12:23 AM

Well if you are talking about free directory submission Then i have doubt about this because i done lot of directory submission for one of my site Some thing like i submit my site to 2000+ sites, but i just get 2 back links From all of them ... and also my that site didn't manage to get any pr, its just showing pr0 , So i'm afraid it don't help us to improve PR

skywalkerph · #53 (**permalink**) 07-10-2009, 07:31 PM

yes, in my opinion, directory submission can also help in boasting your google PR

mr_jups · #54 (**permalink**) 07-11-2009, 06:08 PM

Yes it helps. I got a blog pr2 by submitting to free directories only in little more than 1 month. It became pr2 i last pr update.

yes i think. they give really good backlinks from relevant pages to us. i got more than 600 backlinks from a single directory

markov · #56 (**permalink**) 07-12-2009, 07:00 AM

It will definitely help in PR. Don't treat it as a special link. Any link with high PR and relevancy is worth the consideration.

umesh · #57 (**permalink**) 07-14-2009, 06:00 AM

i am a newbie and i heard everyone saying exchange links and submit to directories with high PR and hence i ended up PR 2 in google ranking in a month. so i think directory submission helps.
