What to Look For in Directory Submission

By: Chris Crum

Shimon Sandler has an interesting post on “Factors of a Quality Web Directory”.

Within that posts, he cites some particular factors to look for:

1) Quantity of Inbound links.
2) Quality of Inbound links.
3) Age of Domain.
4) Topical relevancy to your site.
5) Human-edited is better than automated-based.(editorial control = quality).
6) How frequently the directory gets crawled…( check the Google cache).
7) The directory itself ranks in the Search Engines. (this can be a sign of authority, and can drive clickthrough traffic).

He seems pretty high on BOTW.
