If you’re anything like me, you spend hours a week submitting your website to directories, and writing emails to exchange links. And, if you’re like me, you hate every second of it and you look for an easy way out at every turn using a directory submitter.

Rule #1: Read the rules

Most directories have a list of rules that your listing must comply with to be accepted. Some directories have a very particular set of specifications, and if your submitted listing does not meet them, it will be deleted without a second glance. DirectoryBot Automated Directory Submission can do this for you.

So it is in your best interest to read the rules. If a particular directory does not have a list of rules, you can probably use a set of rules such as:

1- Submit your homepage url only
2- No promotional language or keyword stuffing in the title & description
3- Submit to the deepest sub category possible

Rule #2: Vary your anchor text

Another general rule of link building that applies to Submit to Directories is to vary your anchor text a little so that the links do not look artificial to the search engines.

Just follow these rules to build 100% free inbound links to your website with directory submissions. And of course, you can even start your own directory to build more back links, but that’s another story all-together.
