I keep reading conflicting information about whether submitting to directories is worth it, but I'm pretty sure it is. My traffic has been slowly growing, and I am on page one for a couple of search terms that have brought me several clients recently. I suspect that this is due to the directory submissions, since that's what I've been doing most of.
I'd say the best approach is to just do it widely, and by hand. And alternate it with other promotion campaigns, like commenting on blogs.
Certainly some free directories don't pass page rank, but some do. And some of them will grow after you have submitted, and start charging then. Do enough submissions and a few at least will bear fruit and bring long term rewards.
I'm lucky to have the time to do this. I can imagine it not being an option for more time-poor people. (I also find other sites and blogs of interest while scouring the directories, so it's not that boring.)
