The foremost question on the minds of most up and coming bloggers is "Why should I submit my blog to directories?" Some bloggers will actually submit their blogs to dozens of directories or even more, while others feel that this wouldnt be of much use. Based on my impressions of most web experts opinions however, I have realized favorable results when I submit my blog to a small number of blog directories soon after starting it up.
What I quickly learned when I submit my blog to blog directories was that I was able to garner backlinks in a fairly short time. This has allowed my websites to be found more easily by the major search engines, which then indexed my sites and caused them to rank higher in search results.
The interesting thing is how much importance search engines place on these links. In most cases, search engines rank pages that have such links higher, since they are generally considered to be more worthy of linking to. it was this realization that allowed me to get favorable results after I submit my blog to a few directories. The directory listings themselves dont actually generate more visitors.
There remains some contention with regard to how many directories is the right number to submit my blog to. Some people feel that I should submit my blog to as many as hundreds of blog directories, while others feel that this would be pointless.
As is the norm in the industry, it appears that submission to 10 blog directories or even less is sufficient. For although search engines are attracted to sites that have plenty of links, they are more likely to place a higher value on links that are featured on on topic posts and articles, as opposed to those that come from blog directories.
My primary concern at this point was how to find blog directories that I could submit my blog to. I found that a search for "blog directory" got me several leads in this regard. In fact, many of the better blog directories came in at the top of the search results pages.
There are many blog directories that have specific rules about posting backlinks. I tend to shy away from those blog directories, and instead I tried to submit my blog to blog directories that were a lot less rigid.
Many of the blog directories I tried out were simple to submit content to. I felt that it would be best to skip the ones that take longer, and instead spend a few minutes in order to submit my blog only to a few blog directories. This gave me more time to work on my content and generate new links that way. See here also Car wax reviews . Blog submission . Blog search .
