I believe that submit url to web directory is good for your PR.. Dont you ?..

**jitendraag** · 07-08-2008, 01:34 PM

Yes. Directory submissions can increase PR for a website. Though the effectiveness of directory submissions has decreased in past 2-3 years.

BTW, Don't chase PR too much

Of course directory submission helps your PR. But it must be a quality directories or search engine.

**beacon.seo** · 07-08-2008, 11:10 PM

yes.. high PR directories really help you increase your PR.

**johnlloyd** · 07-09-2008, 08:45 AM

even though you submit your site to directories, it only has small weight or importance to increase your PR!

**ourktm** · 07-09-2008, 12:45 PM

Yes they probably help you in your pagerank and also help you in serps if you are targetting unpopular terms.

Yes it is little helpful in increasing page rank. There are few quality web directories that will increase the PR of your website. It is dmoz, yahoo, joeant, etc. No doubt it is also helpful in increasing rank of a website.

Back link will improve your PR that's why directory is a big help just don't forget submit to the right category.

The subdomain where you are actually listed usually have a PR 0 or n/a, At the most 1 or 2. Most of the directory have a high PR on the home page but that's it.
PR doesn't real mean anything anyway. It looks cool if you are trying to sell ad placement etc...but it doesn't really help with your rankings. It's more a consequence rather than a cause of ranking

I think it helps PR but not so much with traffic. Somehow google must weigh directory links differently.

**rirara** · 07-19-2008, 03:18 PM

Depends on the directory itself. But I prefer more social bookmarking sites.

**CosmoMan** · 07-20-2008, 03:58 AM

It definitely helps to increase PR if directory you are submitting is Good PR as well as Quality ones.

**datasolutioninc** · 07-21-2008, 03:28 AM

Web Directory increases site pr.

**ciplseo** · 07-23-2008, 06:07 AM

yes directory submission to increase PR

**Sycrohix** · 07-24-2008, 10:11 AM

It can help, if related to your topic.

**mariuskl** · 07-26-2008, 06:21 AM

You get links from some of that directories. About PR, it is relative...

**eautocad** · 07-27-2008, 02:12 AM

Relevancy is key with page rank, as well as return rate, bounce rate, etc... IMO everything analytics can track plus stuff they dont want us to know about the algorithm.

**JohnnyD** · 08-25-2008, 07:58 PM

I agree with most replies on here. It can help with PR, but the best way to improve PR is to have your URL linked from site that are relative in nature to your own. Posting to forums and writing articles are mostly effective.

**mokmok69** · 08-27-2008, 02:45 AM

I prefer fresh links and permanent quality link everyday.

**teampower** · 08-27-2008, 02:52 AM

must be quality not quantity
