directory information pages????????????

[mxracer170]

Before I knew much about SEO (I still don’t know all that much) I signed up with a SEO company. I did not want to be bound by a long-term contract so I told them to hit the bricks at first. Then they contacted me again and offered no long-term commitment and to wave the start up fee. So I thought what have I got to lose, right? I didn’t know it at the time but they have probably the worst reputation in the biz but never the less my site is starting to rank pretty well for some pretty competitive phrases. I’m not sure if it’s mainly because of what they are doing or what I am doing but the end justifies the means I guess. They have me on a program where they have 40 directory information pages pointing to my site. Do these still work and what are they, just other “fake” sites jammed full of keywords linking to my site? I’ve heard some people say they are out dated technology.
