Directory Submission Guide

Prepare Your Website Information

Have the following details ready before submitting:

• Website URL: Your full website address (https://example.com)
• Business Name: Your official company or website name
• Description: A unique 150-300 word description (avoid duplicates!)
• Keywords: 5-10 relevant keywords for your business
• Category: Know which category best fits your site
• Contact Email: A professional email address

Write Multiple Descriptions

Create 3-5 unique descriptions of varying lengths. This prevents duplicate content issues and allows you to tailor submissions to each directory's requirements.

Choose Quality Over Quantity

Focus on directories with higher Domain Authority (DA) scores. A few links from DA 40+ directories are worth more than dozens from low-quality sites.

Find the Right Category

Browse the directory's category structure carefully. Submitting to the most specific, relevant category increases your chances of approval and provides better SEO value.

Fill Out the Form Completely

Complete every field in the submission form. Incomplete submissions are often rejected. Pay attention to:

• Character limits for titles and descriptions
• Required vs optional fields
• Image/logo upload requirements
• Reciprocal link requirements (if any)

Follow Directory Guidelines

Each directory has its own rules. Common requirements include:

• No affiliate or redirect URLs
• Working website with original content
• No adult or illegal content
• Professional design and functionality
• Valid contact information

Track Your Submissions

Use our Chrome extension to mark directories as submitted, approved, or rejected. This helps you:

• Avoid duplicate submissions
• Monitor approval rates
• Identify which directories work best
• Plan follow-up submissions

Be Patient

Directory approval can take anywhere from a few hours to several weeks. Free submissions typically take longer than paid ones. Don't resubmit if you don't hear back immediately.
