Directory Submission and Marketing Success

Your submission to the major directories will differ from the typical optimization process for search engines.  Human editors normally volunteer to review web sites for indexing in certain directories.  Spiders will not crawl your site.  Your success depends on a real human eye viewing and sifting through your site.

Our Search Engine Marketing Specialists can assist you through the optimization, submission, ranking and marketing process of your web site promotion campaign in major directories.  Contact us at 904-992-4341.

Submit To LookSmart

LookSmart is growing rapidly, now serving MSN.  They base
the indexing of your web site on your title and description.  Be sure that these items are completely optimized for proper web site placement.

Yahoo Submissions

Most of us have heard of Yahoo!  They are one of the largest, most successful directories on the web.  Yahoo! can also be said to be one of the most difficult of all of the engines and directories to get indexed in.  Yahoo's latest announcement to increase submission prices to $299 per year has scared a few people away.  The fees may seem steep but if you consider the amount of traffic that you could get from Yahoo, the submission fee and yearly fees are a small price to pay.

Submitting To The Open Directory Project

The ODP is a directory serviced entirely by volunteers.  Each of it's subdirectories is maintained by a specialist in that particular field.  All sites listed have been viewed by an actual person.  At one point, the ODP had over 3000 editors viewing submitted sites for directory positioning.  The amount of people searching through the ODP is becoming enormous.  Optimize your site to be viewable by human editors for desired results.  The ODP is featured on Netscape, HotBot and AltaVista.  It seems that the ODP will be the directory
of the future with hundreds of other sites linking to it.
