Submitting to directories can't hurt your rankings. Otherwise your competitor will submit your site to 1000 crappy directories and beat you in search engines results. There is no such thing as bad link, bad link=no link. But if you submit to quality dirs, it will raise your rank after some time. Of course, you do not know which directory is good or bad, so submit to as many dirs, as you can and this will give you good results. //link removed Post your opinion. :?:

There are a lot of good directories to submit. Choose the high PR directories but free submission. Paid inclusion also to high PR directories is good but be careful with google.

It is better if you will submit your site to quality directories only rather than submitting it to thousands of directories because google will consider your site as a quality one too.

Just submit to quality directories, avoid submitting with the penalized one.. As directory submission can provide quality backlinks

I will fully agree with always FREE and Quality directories but never with any Paid directory.

less but good links with quality Directories

Google always Says No Paid text links.

google has sent message below for paid text links

Google has sent the message across loud and clear to all text link seller and buyers that they will not let paid text links influence their page rank algorithms.

Thanks

Google is against paid links.Not against payment for to have an editor review your site and approve it.This links on directories dont count as paid links!If they count like paid links then G will penalise yahoo dir and BOTW dir!

I preferred free directory submission even it has a long period of acceptance...I find it better because you site will undergo certain review for its acceptance so it means that the site being approved is a quality one...

Directories are well worth submitting to as they can helps search engines to catagorise your site, so if you have a books site and you submit to a books directory it should help your overall rankings. Free directorys can be usful but some of the top paid ones can offer quality backlinks which are worth more than multiple free directory links.

There is a advantage and disadvantage of paid directory...Advantage is you will be listed immediately...disadvantage if you no budget for it you have no chance...

3$-10$ for every quality paid directory cant be count that you have to spend a big budget.IMO everyone that is taking his website serious have to submit to these low budget and quality directories.With quality i refer to directories that are:
1)Well indexed
2)have pr above 3
3)have no more than 10 links in every page
4)have good serps for their keywords
5)have a suitable and related category for your site.
6)Have inner pages with pagerank.

I think for paid directories, google reduce PR for paid directories not for the sites listed in the paid directory. However i prefer free directories with good reputation.

Indeed, those directories must possess a good reputation so your site will be in good hands if you submit it to them.

"free directories get 100-1000's of submissions every day..
and they are not a good source of income....so eventually the owner of free directory dont manage it...Show me a well managed free directory ?"...

This lead me to confusion...so I'm asking a help to you guys to please give me a well manage directories...thanks....
