Is it necessary To List Your WebSite In Directories?
“Do you acutally need to waste two weeks submitting your site to hundreds of directories?
The short simple answer is: “No.”
There are 1 vital directory that is significant to submit your website to (And NO its not Google!).
The reason? If you’ve correctly optimized your site with keywords and flawless SEO methods, Google will most likely index your site faster than it takes one of their editors ( they have live editors, its their job) to get around to it.
Its not necessary to submit your site to every lesser directory on the net. Its possible you'll see scarcely extra visitors… but , the time you spend investing in manual submission would be better spent on other, more important aspect of your business such as Advertising.
The Open Directory Project – better known as DMOZ.org. It’s a extensive enterprise, involving hundreds (possibly many) of dedicated unpaid editors, with knowledge in every possible niche you could imagine. It does take a while to get listed in DMOZ, my advice is submit your site as soon as it’s complete ( You won’t rank well , if one of their editors happens upon any site which is “under construction” , or has incomplete pages.)
DMOZ will no doubt reach your site eventually – but if you can advance that process by even a few weeks, it may mean a vital diversity to your traffic and business.
Here’s why.
1. DMOZ Alexa traffic ranking is 760 at the time of this article, objectively, it sits practically on the steeple of the Mount Olympus of directories.
2. The editors rate your content accurately and completely – which is a tremendous advantage, if you’ve done a good and industrious job creating your content.
3. You can optimize the title you enter in DMOZ to provide yourself with an excellent piece of anchor text.
4. You’ll at no time find the attribute: rel=”nofollow” in your DMOZ directory listing. This at once gives you a strong and potent back link, eventually advancing your site towards “authority site” standing.
It will take you about 15 minutes (if you’re thorough.) Check out their guidelines and add your site today – while your competitors are still chasing after elaborate SEO methods.
