Before you start submitting your website to directories you should check the links in the category are relevant to your site? Remember that an inbound link relevant to your business and keywords has more weight than an irrelevant one regardless of the page rank of the directory page where it is located. So try to make sure it’s as close as possible if you cannot find one that matches yours.
Don’t change your site too often while in the link submission stage. This could create problems for editors trying to approve it for inclusion. If you don’t have a lot of time for the design of your site, buy an old site that someone else is selling or use a content management system like WordPress. The point is to try and make your site stable and leave it that way while it is in the approval process.
Follow the directory’s terms of service and submission guidelines. They will want you to make sure the website is complete and that you have decided on parameters like keywords, titles, and descriptions prior to the directory submission. Look at the titles and descriptions of your competitors in the directory and see how they did it. Make sure you pick the appropriate category within the directory. Interaction with the directory site will probably generate a lot of e-mails and you want to make sure you respond to any requested action. A way to expedite responding to e-mail requests is to set up an inbox or e-mail filter for each directory. This will help organize and track responses.
A few directory sites, for instance, allow you to include specified HTML tags in the about author section. This is where you insert your link to help promoting your site. There are many directory submission service sites can do for this for you quickly – some of them worthwhile, but others not so great. Making all required research to expose the diamonds in the approximate can be a very tedious suggestion.
