Exposure is the key to increasing readership, followers and ultimately revenue for your blog. One of the fastest ways, albeit not that quick of a process, to generate an increase in traffic to your blog is submissions to directory listings. A directory can get new people to your blog, but it is up to you to ensure that it is filled with quality content that will keep them coming back day after day.
What Is A Directory?
A blog directory, web directory or link directory are lists of websites that specialize in linking to other web sites on the World Wide Web. The directories are said to provide good "link juice" to a site as opposed to "key word stuffing" which is frowned upon by the search engine spiders. You don't want to make the Google spiders angry.
What Can A Directory Do For Your Website?
Directories are great for both the blog owner and readers who are looking for new sites to follow or research.These directory lists provide "backlinks" to your blog. This type of linking is vital to the growth of your site because Google places more value on sites with the greatest number of backlinks.
Backlinks are incoming links to a webnode (also called a website, blog, directory or domain) from another web node. These connections between the two sites ultimately enhances the SEO (search engine optimization) of the site. Backlinks, also known as inbound links, incoming links, inward links and inlinks, provide one view of the popularity or importance of the site or blog.
One of the fastest ways to lose your backlinks and Google rating is to change your domain. That is why I stress buying your domain name now before you wake up one morning with a PR5 and decide you are into blogging for the long haul and need to buy your own domain. The moment you buy your domain, your rating becomes a big fat goose egg...ZERO and you lose all the backlinks. Yes, I know how this feels because that is my scenario, so go buy your domain today.
in which opportunity is buried."
What Is Needed To Submit To A Directory?
It doesn't take too long to submit your blog to a directory. Usually, the most time consuming part is determining which category to list your blog.
The most common information needed for submission to a directory:
- URL of the blog
- Blog RSS feed address
- Name of the blog
- Email address
- An account created on the directory
- Placing a reciprocal link or badge on your blog
Below is a list of blog directories in order of Google PR ranking. I will update this directory resource, so let me know if you find a link that no longer works or want me to add another one. Sometimes directories disappear just like blogs.
