Directory Submissions

[factoring]

I have a couple questions about directory submissions.

If your most relevant sub category is completely empty is that a good thing? Paying $70-$100 per directory is quite a bit, so I want to make sure I am getting the most bang for my buck.

Would it be better to submit to a higher category with more listings?

Also, does submitting to lower ranked, more spam directories hurt you at all?

Try checking the PR of the directory itself and the subcategory. Generally the higher the page rank the more often spiders are going to be indexing that site, which means they'll see your link more often.

Hi Friends

Directory submission are well known for One way link.
While submitting in a directory deep links, or link in Parent directory does't matter.

Wheather you believe me or not. I have done thousand of Submission. The main thing which depends on directory submission is

" cached page" the other site to which you are requesting for a free link is giving you link on cached page.
PR does't matter in Free links and even cached page does't matter in the case of free submission.
But if you are doing paid submission do what your mind say.

Directory submission is the only way to get one way link but avoid spam directories.
