March 3  |  Link Directories  |   Ryan Clark

A lot of you may never had paid for inclusion in a directory, and the other lot of you know the benefits of the key players still left on the market. Directory links are sometimes iffy business these days, so is there anything left paying for? To keep it short the answer is yes, but let’s take a closer look at which I think are worth paying for.


Some of you may be business owners, or SEO consultants, but there are a few things you have to keep in mind before paying for inclusion. The most authoritative and quality directories left with a lot of traffic, good Pagerank and link juice are mostly directories you pay for. Over the past couple of years I’ve kept most of my directory link building within the niche of the client, and only submit to the few quality directories in their market. I’ve never bothered with directory submitting software mainly because I believe in quality over quantity.

Some of these directories listed below will most likely always show up in the backlink profiles of people ranking for the toughest keywords on the web. I’m not saying they’re god’s gift to ranking well, but it really does say something about the quality of your website if you have some of these backing you. One of the major thing I’ve seen over my years is that you’ll quickly notice your search engine position stops bouncing around so much. If you’re a new site, these are also a great first step in getting past the hurtles of ranking in a crowded marketplace.
