Offsite SEO: Directory Submission

Something that might be able to help your offsite SEO efforts is Directory Submission.

There are a few pay-to-play website directories that carry clout with Google.

While I do not think taking time to submit your site to directories is horrible, my experience shows me that this is not a great use of your time (if you do this yourself) or money (if you pay someone else to do this), especially for the free ones.

There are MANY free directories that will let you leave YOUR link on their Directory Website for free (or a small fee).


What is the harm?  Free is glee, right?

Spam I am...NOT! Possibly an Upcoming Trend?

I saw a story featured on Yahoo today, and it made me do some thinking and realize some things.  (Article: Man quits job, makes living suing e-mail spammers)

Daniel Balsam hated spam SO much that he quit his job as a marketer, and he studied law, just so he could legally fight against people and places that spam.

Balsam has successfully sued many companies, and so far the defendants have paid over $1 million total.
