Directory Submission Services

To understand Directory submission in a better manner, it is first advisable to know what a web directory is.

• A summary about the category is a must. Every category page should contain title, description, etc., also known as meta tags, as these increase the understanding rate.
• These directories should be indexed by a prominent search engine like yahoo, Google or msn and should be SEO friendly.
• The links per page should not exceed the limit of 20.
