Directory submission strategy / approach:
1. Directory submission shorter time Vs Longer time/period:
When SEO professional builds back links using directory submission, he/she must do it over the period.
For example, It is always effective to 500 directory submission over 3 months rather than over 3 days.
There's no fixed number of directories that you should get listed in. Prepare quarterly plan of a directory submission for each site and then do so many each week.
2. Free Vs paid directories submission?
If possible, SEO professional should choose paid directory links as paid links last for longer.
If your have SEO budget restrictions then you might start with FREE directory submission. But please note that free directories websites may disappear or delete links over the time. However, there are a few popular free directories on internet that could be used for free directory submission.
3. Generic Vs Niche directories?
Always submit a combination of both niche and general directories. SEO professional should search on major search engines like Google, MSN or Yahoo for niche directories for your website.
For general directories it's always good to go for established (older) directories. List of top directories are given on this site.
