Directory submission

[wot]

Simple is that you submit you link in high PR directory but your link related to choose your category.I hope your link will be approved.

Submit your site to quality directories with high pr and which have less number of sites.But usually directories having less sites have low pr. Do not upload copywrite content on your site, some directories do not accept porn stuff etc.

Usually the directories with high PR and less approved sites are on dropped domains/fake PR and will loose there PR on the next update.

Every Directory has its own credentials. Our website should meet that criteria. That's it. Nothing more than that I think.

One of my pet peeves with people submitting to directories I have run is submitting a link without knowing what the directory is about. It gets old quick and a lot of submissions have been deleted without much review. Just bein' honest....

First thing is submission into the right category.
Don't stuff keywords give a proper title.
Proper description.
Providing meta description and keywords if asked for.
Valid Email Id.

These are the things that I have followed personally and they seem to be paying out good for me.

Submit you links with dofollows or high page rank top sites.

[jayrudalf]

There is not any method which can give you approval fast it all depends on the directory itself.

Sadly, even very well known SEO's make this mistake.

Directories are seen as a saturate, hit 'n' miss method, and rather than submitting to a selection of directories correctly, people just target a big list and spam the hell out of it.

If you are on that list, you generally get junky submissions.

It's just a fact of life on the internet that people (especially non-seo, non-webmaster types) are not going to take the time to read individual directories guidelines. They should of course, especially the good ones.

Good tips, though you should probably expand on them because suggesting a "proper description" doesn't really explain to people what style of description a business should write.

To elaborate, a proper description for a site submitting to a web directory should really be:

• non-promotional - It should contain no marketing speak or promotional terms like "best prices", "the greatest", "most powerful", etc.
• non-repetitive - It should not contain repetition in either keywords/terms or sentences. Saying the same thing two different ways is redundant. Say it once.
• 3rd party - It should read from the 3rd perspective, not the 1st. What this means is that it should not contain I, Our, Us, We, etc. Instead you should describe the site objectively from the perspective of someone that does not own the site.
• concise and not a shopping list - It should just be a clean and concise sentence or two that describes what the site has to offer. But it should not turn into a long list of comma-delimited products that the site has to offer. And please, P L E A S E never use the dreaded phrase and many more....

That's just a quick elaboration on the tip

It should not look like linkfarm or you don't post copied content. Good design is also one factor.

Guys So far the question of approval of a website its depend on the directory also where you are going to submit your website.

No matter, It is right that your website must full of quality and quantity, but beyond of this thing still some stuffed directory where you would not be easily submitted as an example we can see the DMOZ the high PR value directory

[wyanesmith1987]

First Find Directory site with good pr
second select category in which you want to submit your URL.
selecting the category is the main method, select the category according your product.
after that submit it. And now it depend on the administration to approve it.

Have in mind that many of the free directories are a kind of abandoned and whatever you do, you will not be listed.
I think that registering at free directories is a waste of time and registering at paid directories is a waste of money. At least this is my experience.

You have to have a good website with quality content that is unique!
