How to find a quality directory?

You have already heard this before in forum, in blogs, “submit your site into quality directory only”. But,what are the quality directories? How do you define whether a particular directory is a quality one or not? Right now, we are going to discuss with you regarding quality directories.

Niche Directories are quality ones : A directory based on your topic is always a quality one for you no matter whether it has 0 or 5 PR, paid, free or reciprocal. Always submit your site into niche directories. Why is that so? Since Google loves links related to your site theme and if they are one way, then it is like icing on a cake. No matter what, always submit your site into directories related with high PR.
Older the directory, the better: Always submit your site into directories existed for more than 2 years. These directories are reliable, and getting a link from them means that your link will remain permanent. It is easy to find age of directories, since most of the directory list like vmoptions and directory critic mention the launch date of directories with URL. Though in most of them approval time is higher, but once your site got approved, it will serve a quality link for your website.
PR of a directory: A directory with high PR is always a quality one, though most of the High PR Directories are paid or reciprocal, but there are free high PR directories which have free submission. You can find free high PR directories in Vmoptions.com
Subcategories in a directory: An ideal directory should be split into proper categories, always make sure that category relevant to your site exist or not. If it doesn’t exist then there is no point submitting your site into that directory.
Do Follow Pages: Some directories have no follow tag in their inner pages. Always check whether directory has no follow link or not. If it has no follow link present in inner pages of its website, then there is no need to submit your site into it.
No of Pages Present: Always check the no of pages present in a category where you are going to submit your site. Make sure that there are not more than 3 pages in your relevant category, more the number of pages, more time Google robot will take time in crawling your link.
