      Hi all,

      I'm based in the UK and i'm looking to submit to a several directories under the central index umbrella, for example to these directories:

      http://findit.chad.co.uk/

      http://directory.nottinghampost.com

      http://directory.burtonmail.co.uk/

      I've filled my profile out and have submitted to one of the above directories, however when I sign in to one of the other directories it asks me to re-fill out all my details. Is there not a way i can submit to several of these directories by signing in without confirming my telephone number for each one ?

      Many Thanks in advance

      Paco

        Link Directories - Good or bad?

        I've just done a search on open site explorer for a competitors site that has is ranked number one. Most of their highest authority backlinks are from link directories. I just read an article on here saying to stay away from directories that state things like 'seo friendly directory'. Many of my competitors links are from these kind of sites! Will it harm me to get links from such sites? It seems to be working for my competitors.... confused.com!

        How do paid directories like thomasnet.com do so well in the serps? Aren't the Panda updates supposed to be moving us away from this?

        With all of the updates/changes to Google's algo, I assumed that paid listings & links like those on thomasnet.com would have less merit.  Is this an incorrect assumption?

        Asking other websites to link your website when the want to be in your directory

        Hello, We have 3 web directories, and I wonder if it is legal for search engines to ask people who want to be in the directory to link to a particular website in order to be in our directory. I mean, it is free adding the url in the directory but if they lwant to be in the directory they have to ink to a website we have decided.
        Is this correct, or is punishable? Thanks!

        Is this Directory Guide by SEOmoz still accurate?

        I need to pay for some directories, but I don't know if BOTW, Business.com, Joe Ant and others are still worth it.  Anybody know if this is still viable? http://www.seomoz.org/directories All Mozzers, can you please give me a 'thumbs up' so I can get more MozPoints? 🙂
