9 Directories/Search Engines to submit your Blog/Website
Posted by Mike | Filed under Link Building, Traffic-building
There are tons of directories and search engines that you should submit your website to. Here is a list of free directories you should submit your blog/website to in 5 minutes or less. I’ve linked to the submission page to ensure speed!
These search engine/directories have been chosen because they don’t cost anything to get listed, are easy to submit to and have high Alexa or Google PageRank (PR). A high PR in the directory you are listed means a boost to your own PR. A high Alexa ranking means people are visiting that search engine/directory to find sites. Spend 5 minutes and submit to these 9 sites.
1. Open Directory or DMOZ. While I really do not like the concept, for some reason the Open Directory is what Google uses for their directory and places high value on. The website currently has a PR8 with most of the directories with high PR as well (where you will get listed). Submit your site to the directory and if you get lucky enough to get listed you will get a PageRank boost.
2. Scrub the Web. This search engine is constantly under 20,000 on Alexa and has a PR6. Submit to Scrub The Web and your site will get listed fast.
3. ExactSeek. ExactSeek is a great directory, but you have to sign up for a free user account and agree to get newsletters. It is consistently around 20,000 on Alexa. If you don’t mind the newsletters register your website.
4. ExaLead. One of the few PR7 or higher search engines out there. Submit away!
5. Searchlight. Another free directory with a high Alexa rating.
6. EntireWeb. Extremely easy to submit your domain.
7. GigaBlast. PR6 directory that is easy to submit to.
8. What U Seek - Another PR6 Search engine that is easy to submit to.
9. Accona. P6 search engine.
That’s it! In less than 5 minutes you will get listed in 9 of the more popular search engines and directories, hopefully increasing your PR and traffic.
Important list. Many thanks.
Thanks for putting this list together. I didn’t time myself but it didn’t take long to submit my site to each of the directories.
Hi! Thanks for sharing this list!
This was very helpful - was able to do it in just 5 minutes, too
Thanks for the tips!
The ultimate goal of submitting your site to any directory of search engine is to get traffic. However, since almost everyone is doing the same thing, I don’t think that submitting your site would do much good anyway. It’s probably much better to find creative ways to get links and traffic.
Nonetheless, thanks for the list.
Others than sites listed above, I always submit my new site to rss aggregator such as rss2.com, 5z5.com, goldenfeed.com, feeds2read.net, etc
A very helpful list. The directories were incredibly easy to submit to. No huge forms.
Really thanks for those links, I really needed them
