Directory submission is an easy way to build backlinks for your domain.Â For non competitive niches a few hundred accepted links in directories can make wonders for your SERPs positions.Â For more competitive niches directory submissions is not recommended on its own and its recommended that it gets combined with other SEO techniques.

Directories - are they worth bothering ?

Is directory submission still a good SEO practice?
friends, please tell me still the google directory submission useful for increase our PR. I've heard since there are a thousands of out going links in a directory the weight you gain from a directory backlink is very low. Do you agree? please comment.

This and similar questions about the topic of directories and their SEO value comes up on the forums quite often.Â People new to internet marketing techniques usually associate good SEO with PageRank and while not unrelated one can not base their efforts on pagerank alone.
