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 Technorati (for blogs...kind of outdated)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.

Yahoo Directory Question
I'm working on building some links for a used car store and thinking about submitting a site to the Yahoo Directory. The page that I want to rank for this category is not the homepage of the site (as the store also sells new vehicles), so I'm curious if anyone knows if I can submit a specific page instead? If not, how does the idea sound of creating a separate domain that 301 redirects to my page of choice and submit that to the directory? EDIT: Found this in the Yahoo TOS: "The site may not appear in the Directory under a different URL." "The site must not be dedicated to directing the user to another page." Hm. Any ideas? Should I just submit the homepage?
