================== ARTICLE START ==================
Free directory submissions are an inexpensive way to promote
nearly any website. The first question, though, is �do free
directory submissions actually work?�

As we know, the major search engines, especially Google, are
continuing to be tougher in their algorithms regarding what is
a quality link. Do free directory links help with search
engines.

Well, the results say yes. I have used free directory
submissions as the sole link building method when getting a few
sites started. They did get some respectable rankings on the
major search engines. Of course, directory submissions by
themselves aren't a complete long term strategy, but they are
an excellent part.

When you start submitting your site to free web directories,
there are several simple rules you should follow if you want to
see excellent results.

1: Submit only your homepage URL. Most directories will deny
listings that link to a sub page on your site.

2: Use keywords in your anchor text. As with other links,
ensure that one or more of your major keywords are included in
your title.

3: Make your title official. Don't keyword stuff your title �
write it for a reader, not a search engine. Make it an
official, unique title for your site.

4: Rotate your titles. Use several different titles so that you
have some variation in the anchor text of your links.

5: Use a real email address. You don't have to use your main
email, but use an email you check. Many directories require
email confirmation.

6: Be patient. It will take weeks to months for the directories
to approve your link. Patience is required.

If you follow these simple guidelines, you can easily use free
directory submissions to promote your site � for free! You
can't beat the price, that's for sure! Plus, free directory
submissions are effective. They've been proven time and again
to work. Get started today!
