Getting Backlinks To Your Site
One of the important concepts in SEO is to get as many inbound (backlink) links to your site as possible. This is also called the Off-Page Optimization (You can also read here on my post on how to do the On-Page Optimization). Most often, the off-page optimization is the most difficult part to handle with, since it is difficult to ask someone to put a back link on a page that does not belong to yours.
One of the common way to get back links to your site is to submit your sites to various web directories (or blog directoies too if you are using blog). I too operate a web directory where it is FREE to get listed. With that said, many of these directories have both a high Page Rank AND are old websites, giving them more authority and power in the search engines.
Not only that, but there are literally thousands of website directories on the internet that are absolutely free for you to submit your website to! While it does take time to find these directories and then manually fill out all of the required criteria to submit your website, it is an excellent way to help increase your search engine rankings.
However, since this kind of submissions is done manually and one-by-one, it is very tiresome and time-consuming. There are some good website directory submission software products on the market. The best of which is a product called Directory Submitter created by Brad Callen. Esentially you simply enter your website details into the software program 1 time, and then click on any of the 1600+ website directories in the software and it wil automatically fill in all of the submission criteria for you. Click the submit button and then your site has been instantly added to the website directory.
So, not only does it save you time in finding all of these directories, BUT it saves you an incredible amount of time filling out each and every website's submission criteria. To learn more about Directory Submitter, visit the link below:

Hi Engams,

Thanks again for your support and please promote this directory to your friends.
WooooW!
Thanks a lot swinger
I really appreciate that.
Hello,
Here is Odeh again, I became one of your fans ;-)
I can understand that you are trying to protect your contents from illegal copy, but would you consider to make the links open in new page?
I have submitted my website to your directory and published a reciprocal link at http://engknowledge.com/links.aspx
I have one comment, I think you forgot to write the website description in the reciprocal link html code.
Thank you and keep it up!
Odeh
Hi engams,
You are welcome. It is time to honour my regular readers. :P
Hi Odeh,
Thanks for your nice comment. I deeply appreciate that.
What links do you want to make them to open in a new page? Well, many people think if a site has its pages to open in a new window, the site is pretty much like a scam or rubbish. That's the thing that I want to avoid. But, I am really interested in your suggestion. Please specify which links you are talking about.
Haha, it is my intension to let you freely describe and review my directory site. Please feel free to write anything about it. But I really appreciate your backlinks.
As I have mentioned in my last comment, it is time to honour my regular readers and fans. So, I ahve made your listing as featured, which worths $1.99 at the moment.
Thanks for supporting my site, and I hope you can also put a back link to this blog too!
Hey,
WOW congratulation for the new text Ad, I like that too much, waiting for the review ;)
You are 100% right, you may be bother your visitors by this, but I think its fare to make links to other websites open in new window. Also, you may provide an option to open the internal links in new or same window, then the user will decide! Believe me; you will help your visitor as well as your self when you solve it!
Actually, I don’t have any plan to link to blog websites, but you know; its hard to deny a request from a polite person! You can check your blog link at http://engknowledge.com/links.aspx
Now tell me, how did find my website? Is it nice or not? Remember, its still under construction.
I'm wonder if you can provide a link from your blog or another website from yours!
Thank you for listing me as featured, it extremely appreciated.
Odeh
Hi Odeh,
You are welcome. For the links, I will seriously consider your suggestion. However, providing a option for visitors to open the link in the same or new window at the same time is a technical problem to me. I hope I will find that solution from the web in the future.
You are a nice person too, and once again, thanks for your full support!
When I access your directory today (08.11.2007), it says: HACKED BY MeDoeLrWeSh (0)
I think that you have a problem...
good info
Hi,
Yes, that directory was hacked by someone else, and I am still finding a safe ad yet free script to install another directory for my readers. I apologize if that cause any inconvinence to you.
Hi fxforex,
Thanks for the comment.
