The Best Post Panda SEO Strategy
When you hear "Website Submissions" or "Directory Submissions", do you feel like
rolling back to the stone age of search engine optimization? Though directory submission
strategy is a very old SEO concept, it has once again proved that "Old is Gold"
after the Google Panda update. We have seen questions about the effectiveness of
the directory submission after the panda update in many forums and discussion boards
and we have the answers too.
Here are few questions commonly found in the discussions boards:
Has the effectiveness of directory submissions changed after the Google Panda 2.3
update?
SIM answers, if you look around the news about the Google Panda affected
websites; you would not see any of the popular website directories. While many of
the article directories and the content sites have been hit hard by the Google Panda
update because of issues with content quality, the website directories remained
unharmed. That is a positive change for the website directories as they have become
of huge SEO value because the other options have been hit by Panda
Why do you think Google Panda ignored the web directories?
SIM answers, Web directories are purely meant for listing your website along
with promotional information about your online business. The world knows it, Google
knows it and people who search for stuff online know it. Simply said, surfers landing
on a web directory will not expect informative content in there. All they would
expect is a website related to their keyword along with some additional information.
Google Panda 2.3 aims at presenting what people expect while they search online.
Web directories present what they are expected with and that would be the main reason
why the web directories are Panda safe
Is it hard to get a directory listing published?
SIM answers,It depends on the how the directory submissions are done. 100%
manual directory submissions in the right category have never failed. If the listings
are done right, it is never hard to get them approved
How many of the website submissions go live in the 1st 10 days? Does the panda update
have any effect on the approval of the listings?
SIM answers,Publication of your website listing would a slow and steady process.
Out of the 500 directory submissions we make, 100 listings would be published in
the 1st 10 days after submission. This is not an assumption. We guarantee 100 published
listings and you would get the live listing report after 10 days of completing the
submission. 450+ Submissions would go live over time which doesn't need to be monitored
The good news about the approval rate after the panda update is that, as web directories
have become very important, the webmasters are moderating the directories frequently
than ever before. This has increased the approval rate 5X times faster.
