Directory Submissions

Why is this important? 

In order to get your site high in the rankings of search engines your site will need as many high quality links as possible. There are a large number of directories that have a high PageRank that once your site is listed will provide a link to your site which will help to increase the popularity and PageRank of your site.

Another important consideration is that many people will use directories when looking for services, this will mean that your site has the chance of being seen by these people and thus bring more customers to your site.

How do I get my site listed?

There are many types of directories out there and they are either General Directories and so will list any type of site or Industry Specific Directories which will be specific to a particular topic. When submitting a site a category will need to be selected and information about you and your site provided, then at the submission phase you will be given options:

• Free Submission - not all directories will allow you to submit for free and those that do will either require a reciprocal link or will take a long time to review your site before it is added. If a reciprocal link is required it needs to be considered carefully as to whether such a link will add value to your site.
• Paid Submission - you will normally have several options for paid submission and the cost will relate to where your site appears in the listing and how many links to your site you will get.

Once the submission has been made you will then need to wait for your site to be reviewed by the site editor before it can be viewed.

What do we do?

We will submit your site to the number of directories that you request in the following way:

• Select the directories that have the highest PageRank;
• Decide with you whether you want to use free or paid directories and your budget for the paid directories;
• Manually submit your site to the directories - no submissions will be made by automatic submision software;
• Keep a track of the status of your submission.
