I would shy away from directories nowadays. While they were good for backlinks many, many years ago, now they're associated more with being "bad neighborhoods" of unrelated, spammy links, that can actually hurt your SEO more than help it.

Member Avatar for harry.grant

@dani what if directory is of high pr and good domain authority ? that would also consider as a spammy link ?

Member Avatar for Dani

Find me a directory nowadays that meets that criteria :) They don't exist anymore IMHO.

Nowadays, directory submission affects the SEO. Anyone, have an idea which process helps you to get the backlinks ?

Member Avatar for svivek11

Yes dear directory submission helps a lot in SEO but the directory should be cached and indexed by Google. It is a fast and free method to generate traffic.

Member Avatar for jesse12

As i think directoy is still useful for SEO but here quality matter. If you are listed in DMOZ and yahoo directory then from there you will get the better amount of traffic.

So try to list your website in high quality directory sites. Hope this will useful for you.

I think directory submission is very important for backlinks,but its too much hard for creating backlinks in the directory...last day i saw one directory site..89540 is pending,active link is 7690 and today approved 380 links..its really horrible cause if i submit one link in this directory then i think when its approved that's time i stay another world:P

Member Avatar for spiralclick

It's depend. If directory like Dmoz yahoo! then best. Else wastage of time.
You can mark over there, how it's worth, if you are getting a no follow or noindex link back after a several months? where now a days google consider as spammy activities.

Submission in SEO is not a effective way for site promotion. Now you should have to focus on link earning with your content,try to get links in natural way instead of link building.

Directory submissions are the most affordable form of link building. SEOs prefer it as an easy way to create back links. SEOs prefer directory submission as quick and cost effective way to get the new sites noticed by search engines. And thus get indexed in the search database faster.
