Directory Submission Tactics
1. Submit to directories that are indexed by the search engines. The directory should not have their link pages with the 'rel=no follow' attribute for a link, this will prevent the search engines from accessing your site from that link.
2. Submit to the most appropriate category available in the directory. Sites submitted to inappropriate or unrelated categories may be rejected or removed.
3. Read and follow the guidelines before you begin the submission process.
4. Include your target keywords in your anchor text, but don't resort to 'keyword stuffing'.
5. Keep a detailed record of your submissions. You want to avoid submitting to the same directories again.
6. Use relevant targeted keywords instead of popular broad-based keywords as your anchor text. E.g. "Duplex Houses for Sale in Florida" instead of "Real Estate - Florida".
7. Rotate and use as many different titles and descriptions as possible.
8. Keep submitting to directories from time to time - do not stop.
