Blog Directories - Should I Submit My Blog?

A widespread question new bloggers ask is, "Must I submit my blog to weblog directories?" Some will submit to hundreds, although others believe this to be useless. I assume it is worthwhile to submit to a few.


You will get some initial and important hyperlinks, which hopefully the search engines will swiftly find causing them to index your blog, so that it's which includes in search outcomes. Also, search engines think of links to be a "vote of confidence." Anything worth linking to have to have worth, they assume, so the significantly more hyperlinks the better. Do not necessarily expect anybody to adhere to the links, to get any guests from the directory listings.


So how countless weblog directories should you submit to? Hundreds or thousands? Some consumers do, but I believe that's a waste of time. Perhaps five-ten maximum is adequate. While search engines like links, they are sensible adequate to recognize that a link from a directory is not as essential as a link from an on-topic  post or article.


Not every person agrees with me on this. Some seasoned bloggers feel submitting to weblog directories is entirely worthless and conversely some believe submitting to hundreds of them is worthwhile. If you are going to submit to hundreds, you may well think of outsourcing that function as it's time intensive.


So how do you locate directories? Basic, Google "weblog directory." The most critical ones, at least in the eyes of Google, will be listed first.


Submitting is ordinarily fast, although some may possibly make it troublesome - skip those! When you initially begin your blog, devote a few minutes submitting to 5 or 10 weblog directories, and then concentrate on making valuable content so hopefully other individuals will link to you.
