So I think while it works, we as internet marketers, should not totally ignore submitting to free directories.

I’m surprised you give priority to paid dirs … I really think you can’t judge a directory based on the sole fact that it’s paid or not.

although the vast majority of free directories are indeed pretty crappy, there are 300 really good ones, 700 ok and then an other 1.000 that are on the edge, so those 1.000 are only interesting because of the huge amount and in the hope some of them will increase to be better sooner or later and then it’s good to be in them from in the beginning.

sure, 2.000 dirs subs is a huge number, but to do 500 submissions to the top-500 free directories is a must in my opinion, the minimum to be taken serious …

I do agree it’s best to spread it, not to avoid penalties, as the dirs take time to review and so it’s spread already, but just to keep your option in case you want to focus on extra keywords or to give 1-2 specific keywords the little extra push they need, this because directory submission are proven to show results ( for now ;-) )

just my 2 baht …

cheers,

Michiel

i agreed with you, i found that Yahoo directory is really useless and does not give you traffic, but it only gives you a backlink.

I never saw any benefit as far as link juice is concerned. I can find the directory page indexed in Google if I really dig for it. I never gotten a single referral in 2 years from Yahoo Directory. I have never renewed my Yahoo Directory listing yet they still keep it there. Fine with me, since it doesn’t hurt. It doesn’t see to help either. I think Yahoo directory is dead and would not advise people to pay for it. I think directories are dead in general. I base that on dozens of other sites I own which have been in various other directories for long periods of time.

I think people are better off submitting individual pages to social bookmarking sites.
