Directory Maximizer

I've talked about submitting to directories several times before and I've recently discovered another good directory submission service. Some of the things I like about this particular service are:

  • You can distribute and schedule your submissions at your own pace, i.e. you can submit your site to as many or as few directories as you want to at any given time. This allows you to space out the submissions, which gives it that natural, organic flavor. Luckily, they keep track of the list of directories your site is submitted to on each order. This way, you can submit to more directories from their list in the future without worrying about duplicating submissions (and fees).
  • Use up to 5 different anchor text and descriptions.
  • Live, detailed status reports

At 14 cents each ($14 per 100 directories), and with each directory being hand checked for SEO friendliness, this is a viable contender in the directory submission niche.

They also give lots of helpful advice within articles. One in particular that caught my eye was Directory Submission Guidelines - Improving the chances of getting your site approved. If you're going to pay (even 14 cents) for something, then you should at least do your best to make that money count. Give the submission team good data to work with, and they stand a better chance of getting directory editors to approve your listings.

Sometimes I have the time to do my own directory submissions, but most of the time I don't. That's when I turn to a service to do the work for me. Directory Maximizer is now on my list of services to outsource to.

    Thanks for the heads up, I think I’ll try them out… I selected 178 directories for about 25 bucks.

    I’ve tried this service, it’s got some amazing features and worked very well for me. I’d recommend it to everyone.

    Have used this service as well, think my website has benefited from the links I got. Although I don’t think I got a link for every submission, more like 1 for every 2 to 3 submissions but that’s supposed to be normal since I don’t think all directories approve sites anyway. For the low cost per link acquisition, I thought it was worth it.

    I did not have the same outcome as mentioned by others. Directory Maximizer submitted my site to about 400 directories. Six months later, very few of them show up in Google when I query by website name–I mean less than 5 or them. Directory Maximizer in my mind is not only a waste of money, but it also puts your website at risk by giving you links from potentially bad neighborhoods which may or may not hurt you – depending on who you ask.

    Brian, Google went on a directory rampage last year (after this was posted), and directories took a huge hit. Such is the life of an SEO….things change on a dime.

    I used directory maximizer 1 month ago. So far so good. 53 inbound link from the 400 submission. The other one needs time to be approved. It saves you a lot of time to do the submission by yourself.
