It is a very wellknown fact that all the search engines such as Google, MSN and Yahoo greatly value the number of incoming links pointing to your site when deciding that sites ranking. Furthermore, it is fact that those links which are obtained naturally and those that are non-reciprocal in nature (which do not require you to link back to that site), are very much more important and highly valuable than links that are exchanged among sites.

So, since we have established that these links are so important with 'one-way' links being the most valuable of all, the big question arises as to how to go about obtaining these one-way links. This is where directory submissions can greatly help.

Web directories such as websitejoint serve as a catalog of websites (rather like numbers in a telephone directory) and provide links to the various sites listed under the relevant categories. Most of these directories accept websites for inclusion at no cost with some giving extra benefits and tools at a small additional cost. Submitting your site to these directories, under the most relevant categories, would get you a quality one-way link. This makes directory submissions one of the best and easiest means of obtaining these quality inbound links.

Submitting your website to web directories is a fairly simple activity, yet, if you choose to do it yourself, you would have to invest a considerable amount of time and effort in finding the right list of directories and having your site details properly submitted to each of them.

Many hours of tedious work may be saved by using a professional directory submission service and this I highly recommend. Apart from saving you time and effort, directory submission services also provides you with plenty of other benefits:

Makes sure that each directory link you receive is recognized and valued by the search engine

Offering a variety of submission options, for example, only to directories with a certain page rank

Keep track of all the directories your site has been submitted to

Uses a list of directories which is constantly checked for quality

And much, much more ...

As you can see, the benefit of using web directories is great and the use of a good quality web directory submission service is vital in saving time as well as making sure your site is submitted both correctly and to only quality directories.
