Hi SEOMOZ'ers
I am trying to find high quality directories to submit links, finding it really hard to find them!!
Has anyone got any advise for seeking out such sites! I have tried the tool within SEOMOZ but to be honest did not really work that well!
thanks

Hi Diane. Its not $20 per url but per campaing. For free you can submit into 150 directories. For 20$ you can submit into all the directories in the program database.

just been looking at fast submitter which charges $20 a url. has anyone used this and if so is it any good, did anyone notice a difference to traffic and ranking

Here's a recent post about best practices for link building with directories that might help you.

Fast dir. submitter allows you to specify several titles and descriptions and to change them during the process. I think it would be better to submit to few directories per day with random titles and descriptions.

Hey, Thanks for the link
is it ok to submit your site to almost any directories you can find? or does Google look at it as spaming or something ?

Thanks that is a great help.
Regarding Majestics, I really cannot afford to pay for any other seo tools at the moment!

You need to do abit of research to create a solid list. (1) Search for "directory website lists" on google. Probably the best but most time consuming. (2) You can also have a go at this site - http://www.linkbuilderstoolkit.com/ however there will be a few expired sites since it hasnt been updated in a while. (3) Another way is to view your clients Google Webmaster Tools account and pull the external links pointing to the site. Then use Majestics Clique Hunter to compare with other similar competitors to find new linking opportunities. Hope this helps, Vahe

Deciding on directories
Hi guys, I've read lots of different opinions on directories and it seems that directories are still a useful part of an SEO strategy.

Link DIrectories - Is it a Good Idea with recent Panda Updates
Yo! I have been doing a tonn of research on a few of my top competitors and have noticed that a decent percentage of their links are from link directories. Most of these directories seem organized and the links on the pages are relevant to the selected category. These pages offer both free link submission and a paid feature link submission. My question is that is it a good idea to submit my site to these directories with the recent Panda update(s). I have read a bit about it, but still do not fully grasp the overall picture of it. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Doing Local Directories for Online Stores?
I am working with some customers on SEO and wonder what to do about directories when they have an online store only. They do not want to list their home address (if they did would this be a good idea?). I know the big push now is for local directories so I'm wondering if anyone has tips for other types of directories to get into that aren't spammy. Or tips for doing SEO for sites that are online only? I know Rand talked a lot about the importance of being "real" with an about us page, contact us, etc. on his Future of Link Building Webinar and I'm wondering how to best make that work in this situation when they can't show themselves as real by being in local directories.
