Directory Submissions
-
Hello All.
Our site has 17,000 links from over 300 route domains but none from directories.
Using open site explorer i've found tons of paid and free directories but Its so time consuming manually submitting.
Is it better to take the time to check each directory manually or should I look at some kind of automated service?
Cheers
Todd

Good idea on outsourcing! I can get someone internally to go through the manual submissions.
Does anybody recommend a company to source and submit the information?
Or any decent software?

If you've found them, why not give the category you're looking at submitting too the once over to make sure it's worth it, then when you've got your list just outsource the actual manual work? Once you get in the groove the checking doesn't take long.

better check using a software there are lots of them on web.

Article Submission Old Hat or Still Good hat?
I have always used article submission sites such as ezine, article snatch etc... I have always seen the big ones as a good way of getting relevant content out into the internet network with the bonus of building quality links back. However I have now been reading a lot of conflicting information, since the latest update from Google that even an article being republished multiple times around the net will wipe out the positive impact of the article and bring no SEO benefit. I wanted to get feedback from the SEOmoz community to see if you now feel this is a pointless exercise and we should now be even more careful as to where our content is published.

DMOZ submission
Has anyone had any experience submitting to DMOZ and waiting times. The category i've submitted to has only a few links (http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/England/London/Westminster/Arts_and_Entertainment/) Yet I submitted the site (www.capitalalist.com) over a month ago! Can anyone give examples of waiting times, or a way to perhaps get some feedback from DMOZ? Thanks in advance as always...

Should we focus on Directory Submissions
When reviewing our competitors links in Open Site Explorer I noticed that many of them have directory links. We are an online retailer of gourmet food gifts. So should we focus some of our link building efforts on directory submissions?
