Directory advice
25-04-2006, 04:40 PM

I need to optimise a site and would like to submit the site to some free uk based directories. Can anyone advise me where I would find these directories or how to go about this? is it just a case of scouring the internet to find 'directory based websites' like freeukshoppingdirectory.co.uk (i just made that up! but I think it gets the point across)

Thanks in advance!

hi...that's all i did when looking for directory sites. i google'd it and then submitted to the relevant ones. it does mean submitting your information quite a lot and providing the reciprocal links. what's your site?

I have recently taken the site over from another SEO company who didn't perform very well, the company have offered me 20% of everything they sale through the site as an incentive to improve sales, any more advice would be appreciated

Firstly I need to fix all the Title, Description and Keyword tags, then as already metioned submit to free directories, then look for a uk based link exchange site (any recommends would be appreciated) and then when my account on this forum is vetted include the link in my signature, is that about right?
