Directories can help with anchor text and to rank certain key phrases and also provide backlinks. Directory submission is more beneficial for new sites that have no backlinks yet and pages that are trying to rank well for long tail keywords.

For sure. It does take a lot of time to submit, however, there are a few things that make a process more pleasant. I used to use roboforms before, which simplified the process... Now I just submit using easysubmits - free directory submission tool. Don't think there is anything better out there.
BTW, Google pagerank update happened 2 days ago, just to illustrate the power of directories - I my new site to all of the directories listed there 2 months ago and now my site is pr2. Plus I am on page one on google for the keyword I was targetting

Directories can bring you site some traffic. But be careful and dont spam.

I have heard that some directories like digg will ban your account if you start submitting 15 or 20 articles a day from the same site.

Interesting topic ya really Directory Submission is Effective to get one way backlink for your site. but there should not be any duplicate entry in the same directory and you should choose exact and niche category for your site related to your theme. you should be very careful when you are going to submit your site in Google, Yahoo, MSN, DMOZ and alexa because these search engines and directory have some guideline that you need to follow otherwise your site may not apporve.
All The Best.

Well you need to understand backlinks. I would like to give points to high ranking directories from 10-1. Anyways
10=high PR relevant backlinks

5= relevant backlinks one way

3= relevant recipricol backlinks

1=backlinks same as a general free directory.

It will help and I did submit to thousands but it will not give you a huge bump and it will take quite a while to get a free link through.
