Directory Submission Service: Goorank Navigates the ins and outs of Human-Edited Directories

The visibility of your website within the four major human-edited directory databases like Yahoo!, the Open Directory, LookSmart and Business.com is vital to your online marketing success. Inclusion in these directories helps maximize website visibility across many major search properties. Goorank's years of experience with hundreds of clients coupled with our established relationships with editors of these directories will help you achieve better performance for your directory submissions.

Submissions require significant directory research, analysis and follow-up in order to be effective. Goorank manages the range of directory submission services for your website.

The goal in directory submissions is to have the pages of your website included in the directory database with minimal editing by directory editors. Goorank achieves this goal by:

• Performing a thorough analysis of all relevant directory categories
• Recommending categories that are the best match for your website offerings
• Developing keyword-rich titles and page descriptions for each listing
• Manually submitting listings for directory editor review
• Becoming familiar with specific editors and editing techniques
• Following up with editors to ensure listings remain consistent with your marketing goals
• Recommending and submitting new listings when new internal sections of your site are developed, existing content is edited or modified or as online directories add new categories.
