Top 10 Free Internet Directories
When using search engine optimization to increase exposure and traffic to a website, one factor that shouldn’t be overlooked are directory listings. They may not be the best inbound links available, but some of them are pretty decent, not to mention that many people DO use these directories and the chance of gaining additional traffic from them is well worth the short time it takes to get listed.
Many free internet directories require a reciprocal link before they will include your submission, others charge fees ranging from $5 to $500. What people have to be aware of is that although they may claim to be an excellent directory, it is often not worth the price. There are plenty of completely free internet directories that require no reciprocal link and can help improve traffic as well as SEO efforts. I’ve compiled a list that includes 10 of the best free directories available in the US. Be sure to pay close attention to their submission guidelines so you have the best chance of being included. Most of these directories will notify you by email after your submission and then again if they add your listing.
