When you set up a new website, an important task to do is to do you Website Directory Submissions.

There are a few reasons for this which include:

• Getting links from sites that have Google Pagerank - so that you get some quicker
• Getting traffic from the directories to your website. If you website appears in the appropriate category, then this traffic will be targetted.
• Moving up the SERPS because of inbound links
• Link building should be part of you off page SEO campaign anyway.

I have created a page of the directories that I use for my Website Directory Submissions and will updated it as I find new ones. The page is called Website Directories.

If you know of any good Website Directories that you would like to share, then leave a comment and I will add it to the list.
