LitVillage.com is a literary directory founded in the 1990s. Therefore a link from it has very high value.

If you wish to be listed, full details are here.

Thanks!

In your opinion!

Thanks for your kind and constructive comment.

It's not based on my opinion, but empirical evidence suggests that a site which has been going for several years has more value in the eyes of Google than an identical one launched the previous week.

Anecdotal "evidence" and "guessology" maybe but certainly not empirical evidence.

However, where pages have existed online for a longer period AND have been actively promoted with resorting to dubious methods they MAY have built up more "authority", "credibility" and "gravitas" with respect to search engines. But then on the other hand if those same pages have been on line for same period and NOT been actively promoted or maybe even used for a "crash and burn" operation, they will be worthless.

Using arbitrary values such "age" and therefore considered "more valuable" is speculation at best.
It is the same with "dofollow" garbage, simply not having a "!nofollow" value for the rel attribute does NOT mean that the link WILL pass value, it simply indicates that it MIGHT pass value.

Never mind that anything actively promoted as "dofollow", something that doesn't exist, automatically makes the thing promoted suspect, pushed upon the clueless and/or incompetent who don't care to actually learn about real SEO and promotion. Which not only isn't the same thing, it has little to do with the number of directories you submit to.
