One Way Links and Directory Submissions
Directory Submissions Packages
Considering the huge number of sites in the world, achieving to a top search engine ranking has become really difficult and it is a very important problem for all webmasters who want to improve search engine ranking at all costs.
One way links have a huge importance in improving a website’s search engine ranking. Google for example considers that a site that’s linking to another one is actually giving its vote for that site. So, each one way link to your site is considered by Google as being a vote from that other site. The more votes a page has, the more important the page must be.
Also, not all votes have the same value. It all depends on the importance of the site that’s giving the vote.
Manual directory submissions are still important as major search engines like Yahoo and MSN still use directories in their search algorithms. In fact it is much easier to get a top ranking for Yahoo and MSN, only by manually submitting your site to directories.
By manual directory submissions you will get a considerable number of one way links to your site, links which will be seen as votes for your site. In order to have a natural and normal link building campaign the directory submission must be done in time. Getting a large number of links in a short period of time is seen as ‘unnatural’ by Google and other search engines.
Directory submissions should be spread over a few months period so that links be listed in time and not sudden. Even if it takes time for a link to be listed ( from 1 day to 2 months ) and the links won’t all be listed at the same time, it’s much better to spread the process over a longer period and let the process gain its natural aspect.
A web directory or link directory is a directory on the Web. It specializes in linking to other web sites and categorizing those links.
A web directory is not a search engine, and does not display lists of web pages based on keywords, instead it lists web sites by category and subcategory. The categorization is usually based on the whole web site, rather than one page or a set of keywords, and sites are often limited to inclusion in only one or two categories.
Some directories are very general in scope and list websites across a wide range of categories, regions and languages. But there are also a large number of niche directories, which focus on restricted regions, single languages, or specialist sectors.
Web directories often allow directly submission of a site for inclusion, and have editors review submissions for fitness. Human-edited directories are often targeted by SEOs on the basis that links from reputable sources will improve rankings in the major search engines.
Today submission of websites to web directories is considered as a common SEO (search engine optimization) technique to get vital back-links for the submitted web site. One distinctive feature of 'directory submission' is that it can not be fully automated like search engine submissions. Manual directory submission is a tedious and time consuming job and is often outsourced by the webmasters.
