The practice of website directory submission and web link directory site url submission is not a decision to be made lightly. In web composition and promoting the website, search engine techniques demand active link promotion. The need for differentiation between quality web directories and non quality web directories is a business decision that has long lasting consequences. The spam free web directories that exist today may change soon and become commercial, degrading the value of the submission and the quality of the link association with that site.

The early web directories had little competition. They stood for the first compilations of web data and correlation that helped knit the internet together. But as more and more savvy webmasters capitalized on the relative links web directories provided, webmasters of web directories capped the exposure their new link building members could derive by placing limits on the adding links. This made adding web links risky due to the possibility that the changing nature of the web directory after the webmaster's initial visit could subject the link owner to unfavorable traffic or non-complementary link and content associations.

There is also risk in establishing a link to an unknown web directory since in the short term the entire web directory could be a drawback for your web link and certainly a negative feature of your site's own link directory is an exchange is asked. And the consequences of submitting to these types of directories rises if they become held in contempt by the search engine optimization formulas or abuse their programming.

Responsible webmasters must strategically distinguish between quality directories and non quality and think that submitting to all web directories would help promoting gaining traffic, back links and ranking better in search engines which is a huge mistake. Some webmasters may think that all web directories are no longer helpful in promoting their web sites and think that submitting to all web directories will negatively affect their web ranking in search engines. This thinking is erroneous, while the particular quality of the web directory.

After search engine optimization experience and placement of links in web directories for domain promotion, two types of directories have emerged. Now there are quality and non quality (spam free) directories. Submitting a web site link to quality web directories will help promote the web site by providing it with quality back links which will help it rank better in search engines. The linked site will help the web site gain natural sources of traffic along with the link's traffic source.

The submittal of the website link to disorganized, unpopular, or unfocused web directories will affect a web site negatively. There will be a decrease in rank in the search engines, losing natural traffic from search engines and may lead to complete ban of your web site in the long term.

Quality web directories have to be search engine friendly. Such sites only accept and list quality SEO websites rich in content and information, Real quality sources of websites are selectively linked to provide an optimum experience for visitors. They have a good rank in the SERP (Search Engines Result Pages). They reject spam or non quality web sites and thus provide pure positive source results.

Less than premium choice websites usually have non optimized web site. They accept and list all kind of links and web sites, including under construction pages and non planned websites, and doesn't give a value for quality or non quality web sites. They don't have any ranking in SERP. They don't last long due to lack of interest and traffic, and only remain online until they get banned or deleted. So, excluding all web directories at polar opposites of quality and in between is like excluding any possibility of success in SEO. Getting better rank in search engines and thinking that all web directories are a key feature in SEO is a huge mistake.

You have to analyze the potential web directory, distinguish between the two types of directories, submit only to quality directories and avoid the non quality directories. In short, premium SEO web directories offer maximum results directed at your target demographic with no effort on your part except to submit your site for inclusion. These directories are among the most effective marketing tools on the internet.

Even though the information here is geared towards Newbies, it's still valuable for people, like me, wanting to revisit a broader context of the web. I myself am a front-end web developer and I often get caught up in the minutia of my work. Also, I have limited knowledge of networks in general -- although I did spend some time working with the LAN team at my company where I was setting up local, peer-to-peer networks for scanning technology.
