   In the ocean of information, the internet, there are many locations where you can post a link pointing back to your web site. There are literally 1000′s of directories that will accept your link. In most cases, site marketers boycott such ‘secondary directories’ thinking that little or no traffic would result from being listed on them…We agree! Directories are not likely to bring huge volumes of traffic. However, inclusion in these directories creates a powerful one-way-link factor. In other words, submitting your site to 100′s of ‘seemingly insignificant directories will indeed reinforce your link popularity factor. That said, submissions should be addressed to directories featuring a decent PR. That’s what we call working smarter not harder.

   Please note : Only manual submissions work for directory submission – watch out for folks offering to submit your site to thousands of directories since they usually perform the work with software which are not SEO friendly – submitting to a directory requires individual registration in all cases and it is a labor intensive process which can only be fulfilled by hand. Directory submission is a great way to increase web site traffic.
