Which directory link do I choose to pay for?
-
Recently I discovered an opportunity for a link on the Better Business Bureau, but it cots $600/yr. In my niche I want the link for nothing more than link building. Is the link worth paying for? (I read the YouMoz post on the subject, but still no definitive answer).
-
Sure - $600/year is tough but are you are a real business then sure go for it. But if it's just for the link then maybe spend the money elseware.

I think its not worth to pay for any directory even not for Yahoo directory, Which would be the best one. With 600 Dollars you can do so much more than one directory link.
Creative viral Campaigns (I dont know how creative your niche is)
sponsorships of cool blogs of your niche (buy links)
get tons of content for your Site to promote and share ( hire hardworking indians)
I think there are many more ideas!

Is the whoisbusinesslistings.com directory a good place to get a link?
I stumbled across the whoisbusinesslistings.com directory and noticed that it's home page is page rank 4 and in the listing it allows do follow links to your site. They don't have pricing listed on the site though which scares me. Only a link to a sales person. Anyone know how much they charge and if it would be worth looking into? Thanks mozzers! Ron10

Linking articles to each other
I've been using white-hat article marketing to post original content about my niche to credible article directories (yes, I realize many of them were recently devalued). My question is: Is it a good or bad idea to have future articles link to older articles, as a way to increase the chances of having the older articles indexed, or increasing the amount of link juice they pass to my site (since they point to my site)? I get 2 links per article and was thinking of using 1 to point to a prior (related) article, and the other to point to my site.
