Finding niche directories to link to

Aritim · 06-17-2006, 10:22 PM

How does someone go about finding niche directories to link to? I have a site that specializes in a certain product and would like to incorporate the use of directories specializing in this particular product into my back linking campaign. Can someone please direct me how to begin this process?

It's difficult and involves a lot of brain power

Try searching for your target + the word " links " or " resources "

For example -------

Lingerie Links or Lingerie Resources

Does that make sense ?

Yes, however, alot of these directories don't have any information on how to add my URL to the site. There is no submit site link anywhere on the site -- just a ton of outbound links and adsense links. Nowhere is there a webmaster contact link that I could find.

All of them have an "add link" note man

Maybe you didn't looked right.

- Yeah, and that is what you will find in almost every industry. Thats why they call it work. It takes work to find good quality directories then like you noticed, half the time you can't find an add URL page or even an email to submit your stuff to. Thats why I outsource most of my link building to India!

If I was looking for some more "niche" links that is the direction I would go. Use the "Lingerie Links" style of query and start by sifting through each one... Stay away from sites that look sketch and have way to many links on 1 page. Personally, I shoot to get on pages with less than 30 links.

Also I forgot to mention in my first post I find a lot of good link partners here by searching for what type of industry I want to trade links with:

http://linkpartners.com/search.html

--- Interesting how the homepage of linkpartners.com is PR7 and the rest of the site has a gray bar. Anyone else see that ?

Webfu,

Can you give some recommendations for outsourcing link builders? I'm currently using someone in the US and it is really eating up on my budget.

Yes,,, I'll PM you and let you know. I dont want to post it because my competitors could stumble upon this forum and find out a couple of my best resources!

Let me know if you have any questions on how to proceed... Both of them like to communicate via msn messenger so if you use that it will definately speed things up for you.
