Anyone have a list of paid directories?
-
I want to get into some good paid directories, but every list I have found out there is either just a top ten and repeats the same ones or is a list of 500 where I know most are worthless.
Has anyone submitted to paid directories that has a list of good ones that are actually worth submitting to?

Just wanted to leave a quick note saying that SEOmoz has upgraded the Link Directory! You can view a post Cyrus wrote with more information about the directory updates and link building via directories at http://www.seomoz.org/blog/seo-link-directory-best-practices. It isn't paid directories specifically, but it is a freshly reviewed list that should help you out.

I am currently debating the cost vs value of one of our business.com links. It's $300 per year, and our page we are on has a mozRank of 2.37 and mozTrust of 5.36 for the category we are in. However, every link on that page, except for 3 (including ours) is no followed. Essentially we only have to share the link juice with 2 other companies. I'm just not sure that it's still worth the $300 though with such a low mozRank. Anyone else have any thoughts on that?

I guess I'm going to just use a bunch of the random lists out there and go through each one individually to let you know if they still work or whatever. This could be a while...

Thanks a lot by those recommendations.
I would give you some if I had found any on this range , currently the only one i knew was the JoeAnt one

Read this and bug Rand about it:
http://www.seomoz.org/q/is-this-directory-guide-by-seomoz-still-accurate

Some recent ones I have been using is:
Einet.net (PR8)
JoeAnt
BOTW
V7N (often have discount codes in the V7N directory forum)
Galaxy
And I would LOOOVE if someone returned the favor by suggesting more high-authority paid directories in the $15-$75 range too!

Hi Daniel,
I don't have a list but i have recently seen some benefit from business.com. It's not the cheapest directory at around $300 per year but you might be able to find a coupon code on google.
Best of luck
Ben

Paid Link Backs?
I know I have read that Google doesn't give much value to paid link backs. My company has worked with a charitable organization (marine research and conservation) in the past and we were considering a corporate donation to them. My question is, would there be value in this from an SEO standpoint? There are many many other company links listed on this page. The area we would be listed would be towards the top of the page. Also, they have a really good DA, 71. I don't believe I have many if any .org / charitable organizations in my link profile. Thanks!

Where can I get a list of broken links to my client's website?
I have a client who owns a website that attracted a large number of links to internal pages of their sites. Without realising the value of those links, they removed every page of their website other than the home pages that now reads, "new website coming soon". How can I get a list of every website still linking to the (now broken) internal pages of their site?

Is it risky to be on too many .edu link lists?
I recently heard someone say that if your site is on a lot of link lists (example "Useful Links" pages) this can hurt you. How likely is a Google penalty if your site is listed on tons of .edu link lists?

I wish to know how can I track users via what keywords they are searching and coming to my site exactly. These are non paid keywords.
There is a list of non paid keywords which is showing up but is that all ? I wish to know all the keywords people are searching and coming to my site? How can I accomplish the same.

Has anyone ever shared a list of all their backlink sources?
I am currently in the research stage of finding more sites that I will be able to do things such as submit infographics, guest post, or get easy backlinks that are legit. I feel out of options, as I have already built links with a lot of sites but feel like I need more. Has anyone ever seen someone actually sharing all of their hard work by providing a list of all the sites that worked for them? Or does there come a point when really your only option left is to guest post or be a HARO source? I have been doing those things all along--I'm not just looking for easy, lazy links! Is there anyone who's gotten a site up to a high PR score who's felt out of options, like they've already done all they know how to do? I'd like your opinions. I know it seems like an outrageous question to ask, but I thought I'd throw it out there. I'd be willing to share sources too; I'm not just trying to mooch off people!

Yahoo Directory - Which Category?
I'm submitting a law firm's site to the Yahoo paid directory. The location of the firm is in a suburb of the large city for that region, and that suburb is so small that there is no option for it under Cities. Obviously, the client wants to target the large city, not the suburb they're located in. Wondering if it's OK to submit the site to Yahoo under the category of the large city if the business is not technically located in that city. The address is clearly listed in the footer and on the contact page. Might Yahoo reject the submission for that, or will their editors realize there's no listing for the suburb and allow it?

Directories are Paid links right ?
How are directories ok for buying links ? How can the funds be claimed to be used to review your submission when everyone knows you are basically buying a link ? What experiences have you had god and bad with directories ? Is it a free for all any directory will do or should you be more selective in your approach. If so what are the signs to look out for on a top quality directory.

Question on Links from Directories…
Hello,
Link Building | | inhouseninja
When I do an OSE back link analyses of some sites that are listed in some directories we are considering, for almost all the directories and companies in them, the directories are listed in the OSE report, listed as followed, and usually have decent domain rank and page rank. So this means that the link from the directory is obviously being picked up by OSE and it’s listed as a followable link. My question is just because the link is picked up by OSE does that mean that the search engines value it too? Or could Google see the link ok but throw it out of the equation, presumably because it does not “like” the directory? Hope this makes sense
Thanks!0
