Directory submissions
-
Hi All,
I am wondering what is the current story with directory submissions.
Are they not good news now? Will they upset the panda?
Should I make directory submissions?

Its just my opinion but directories cant really harm you because a competitiors could just submiut you in them if so.
I usually use the SEOMoz tool bar and only submit to directories that have a decent authority.
Just don't use any mass submitter tools for this, or well research them if you intend too.

ok, thanks for your help. Do you need to worry about good and bad directories? Or is it a more the merrier approach?

Personally I still use directory submissions and they do have great results but it really depends on what stage your website is at.
For a new site I believe directory submissions are very useful in climbing the initial ranking and getting indexed, however very established sites wont get a lot of benefit from them.

Are reputable local directories effective link building resources for high rankings in local search?
I'm working on a local search campaign. Generally, the first thing I do is add the site to all of the local directories that I know of. I'm curious, with penguin updates, whether or not this is still an effective strategy for local search.

Blog Directories
Will links from blog directories to our subfolder-located blog within our website help the ranking of our overall site? In other words, will it just help the rankings of the main blog page (where the directory links are pointing to), or will it pass the link juice to the rest of the site? Thanks!

Has anyone seen positive results from using Submiteaze to submit to directories? I know an SEM agency that uses it for clients' link building campaigns, but I don't know if it is worth buying. Are there better alternatives?
I would like to start a link building initiative at my company for a new website, and would like to know if the value of the links built using Submiteaze would be worth the money.
