Web Directory Submission - Choosing the Right Directories

All you need is a valid website that is not under construction, some keywords, an email address, and a brief description of the URL. The same information will then be submitted to all the web directories. The only challenge with this method is that it can be time consuming and boring. No one wants to sit around to submit links to web directories. As an Internet business owner, you shouldn't be doing that too. Focus on these web directories, and get your links approved. Forget about the rest. As you release more websites, use back the same list. Watch for page rank updates, and keep your list updated. Sometimes, a new directory may acquire a high page rank. You can look out for such directories as webmaster forums. All the work is done for you. You may, however, have to provide a valid email address so that confirmation emails can be sent to you. You may then login to your email account and click on all the confirmation links once submission has been completed. A full report should be provided, letting you know where your links have been submitted. If you can afford the time, you may want to include a few web directories with page rank 2 or less. In this case, make sure that the web directories have search engine friendly URLs, and they don't require reciprocal links.
