WEB DIRECTORY

A web directory is a website that acts like a search engine, only a smaller search engine providing links to websites that has been listed on it. Web directories allow free and featured listings under categories and sub-categories by virtue of the products or services they provide.

There are different kinds of web directories:

General Web Directory – that features both free and featured listings. General directories contain many categories and sub-categories like business, travel, fashion, finance, media, entertainment, household, economy, commerce, etc. This type of directory features different types of websites.
Reciprocal Link Directory – that links back to the website that sends an inclusion request. The link directory and website will be exchanging links and referring each other to web users.
Niche Web Directory – accepts only paid listings of websites.
Bidding Web Directory – that requires websites to bid for listings. The more a website bids, the higher the position of the website in the bidding directory. The highest bidder will be featured on the directory’s home page.

Submitting your website to web directories can help SEO of your website through link popularity. Because web directories are human-edited, getting your site listed on a web directory spells quality and authenticity for your website.
