Web Directories And Link Building Resources
Web directories are a great link building resource. Especially if you can
find niche directories that cater to particular categories. Inbound links
from niche directories, can hold a higher value than links from general
category web directories. High value links contribute to page rank.
One of the best resources for finding niche web directories and specialty
hubs to submit your site to, is called Search It
Any web directory that is worth submitting your website to, will most likely
be a human edited web directory. The editor is responsible for making
sure that websites submitted for inclusion, meet the minimum standard
quality guidelines, before they are granted a listing in the directory.
This means that your website will be listed among other sites of equal,
or even better quality than yours, and therefore the link pointing back to
your website from the directory, will be awarded a stronger value by the
search engine algorithms, which in return will award your site with merit
The real value behind web directories is in the inbound links pointing to
your website. Higher page rank equals increased link value. Thats why
the DMOZ and the Yahoo directory are the two premier web directories
to be listed in. They hold the highest page rank of all the directories.
They also set higher standards for quality so before you submit your
site to the Yahoo directory or the DMOZ, make sure that your site offers
quality information and resources based on your site topics, otherwise
you risk having your site rejected.
If you would like to get a better idea of what I mean, Just visit both of the
directories, Yahoo Directory -- DMOZ choose the category in which you
would normally list your site in, and start reviewing some of the websites
listed. You will see what I mean about quality.

Link Building Resources
Submitting your website to various web directories for inclusion, is just the
first step of a good link building strategy. As your site grows, you need to
start exchanging links with other webmasters, who have quality websites
with topics that are related to yours. This is known as reciprocal linking.
In the beginning this will most likely, turn out to be a daunting task which
reaps little reward. The reason for this is because most webmasters who
have quality websites with an established page rank, are very picky about
the websites they link to. Don't get discouraged when you are faced with
rejection, instead, just think of ways to improve the content of your site.
Don't be afraid to ask a webmaster who declined your offer to trade links,
for suggestions on how to improve your site, and if they would be willing
to reconsider your offer in the future. Let them know that even though
you may be inexperienced, you are serious about creating a quality site
One of the best link building resources that I know of on the Internet, is
the Site-Sell Value Exchange. The Value Exchange is a free membership
sponsored by SBI, for the purpose of bringing together fellow webmasters
who are looking to exchange links.
