Directory Submissions

For the past couple of hours, I’ve been getting down to directory submissions. In the past, I’ve done the whole “reciprocal linking” thing but, with playsolidpoker.com, I’m trying to focus strictly on one way links. I’ve realized a few things regarding SEO and it’s not all about backlinks, but that’s for another post.

I found this list while checking out digitalpoint and it got me started down the slow road of submitting to directories. I’m being very picky, trying to only pick quality directories with decent PR. I have submitted to a few of the lower PR directories (PR isn’t everything after all) due to the fact that they were heavily indexed in G.

Remember: A backlink doesn’t count unless the page it’s on is indexed.

The directory at http://www.avedirectory.com/ is one such directory. Zero PR, but lots of pages indexed by google. Perfect example of why PR from Google doesn’t matter (at least not that little toolbar).

Interesting Sidenote: If you are new to blogging these terms are an absolute must.
