How do link directories have high pagerank?

by R » Tue Jul 21, 2009 5:18 pm

I've been running around submitting my site to free search engine directories and I noticed that they all have PR=5 or higher despite the fact that they have so many out-links. And, I don't know of many sites that link back to link directory sites.

So I don't get it, how do they have good pagerank?

Also, is it even worth my time submitting my site to them? Are they actually going to make any difference in my site's rank?

Maybe if the page has good information or sticks to the topic, there is a possibility that it can have a good page rank. It might not be worth the time, but who knows what might happen? There is a chance that they could make a difference. Just put effort into the site to get a good page rank.

Submitting to directories does not give a direct result. It may takes like 3 to 6 months to have impact on your site.

If you link to a directory with page rank 5 but under a category of none page rank that might be the cause your site rank doesn't coming up.

Free directory usually offer submission that may take a long time to approve your site submission. Don't be surprise some of the may take up to more than a month to approve and worst case is rejecting your submission.
