Directory Submission Software- whether to use it or not.

There are many soft wares which can do directory submission in minutes. Within one or two hour your site can be submitted to 1000 of directories. It is good for people who want quick result.

Most of the people are attracted to it, but search engines and directories do not like automatic submission. They consider it as a spam. There is high chance of blocking in directories and search engine

Most of the time they will submit your site to 1000 of directories, but in reality most of them would be paid, require reciprocal link or even worse may not exist. If you check properly your 2000, 3000 directory submission would not contain more than 200 directories.

Category in directory varies a lot, suppose your site is related with equestrian and in one directory it is available but not in another then it will skip it means software will skip the directories where your defined category is not there. It is better to go for manual directory submission in this case.

You can change title and description with time to time but not with directory submission software.

So next time you decide to go for directory submission software please check these points properly before paying money. Always remember money is precious.

Submitting a title in directory

For Directory Submission it is very important to use what title you are submitting. Submitting a too lengthy title containing two or more keywords in it is considered a spamming which have negative impact on your site ranking.

Suppose you have a site related with Greece hotel and your site title is Greece Hotel | Online Hotel Reservation in Greece.


1)
Suppose you got approved in directory with your title as greece hotel,if someone click on this title,then chances of your site ranking on this keyword are increased. Similarly,if you use title like Greece Hotel | Online Hotel Reservation in Greece, the power of ranking on a particular keyword is divided.So, it will take more time.

2)
If crawler reads your title like this, it will get confused to which keyword give importance and it will consider it as a spam.

What is Directory

A directory is a website containing lots of categories such as travel, shopping,health,books etc.Each category contain website related to itself.For example travel websites will be placed in travel directory,health category will be placed in health category,shopping sites in shopping category like that.

What is the difference between search engines and directories?

When you type something on google or any other search engine,it returns result of a single web page of a website,while directory list website according to its theme under a suitable category (for example travel sites in travel category).

Another difference is search engine has programs robots and spiders which crawl the website pages and store it in their database,while each directory has its own selection criteria and if any website fills it criteria they list the website.

To increase the traffic directories also provide search facility not as strong as google to enhance the number of visitors visiting them,
