The ultimate top 10 directory list
-
Everyone loves a good list.
If you could only submit your site to 10 directories which 10 would you choose and why?
-
SEOmoz has also recently revamped their list of directories. You might check out the post about link building via directories (with a link to the list) at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/seo-link-directory-best-practices.
-
Here's 7 "directories" (using that term pretty loosely) where you could try to get listed.
1. Dmoz
2. Yahoo! Directory
3. GetListed (for businesses)
4. NetworkedBlogs (for blogs)
5. Crunchbase (if you've got a start up)
6. Technorati (for blogs...kind of outdated)
7. Wikipedia Categories (Rand discussed this in the most recent SeoMoz seminar).

The question was not which directories would you submit other sites too, it was which would you submit your site too.
-
For me, there isn't a list that matches all sites.

Keyword use in online directories
I have been adding our website to online directories which quite often allow me to add a brief description of the organization and add a list of Key words. With regards to the keywords should I list keywords from the organisiantion description that I have entered on the site or should I use the key words that we are trying to rank for, that don’t necessarily feature in the description on the site

Links from Directory's
I have been looking at the Directory's recommended on the SEOMOZ site. All of those that I have looked into do not appear to have a page rank for the actual page that my link would be appearing on. They all appear to offer N/A as the reply.Is this a problem? Thanks in advance for any replies!

How would one get on the Huff Po's "Around the Web" list?
On the huffington post they often have lists of links related to the article, near the bottom just before the comments. This section, when present, is called "Around the Web". See this as an example: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/linda-bacon-phd-ma-ma/health-at-every-size_b_1314339.html Do the article authors choose these links, or are they auto-generated somehow? I had a relatively small competitor appear here, so I'm wondering if there are any tricks to gett included. Thanks! Edited to add hyperlink
