7 Powerful Ways to Grab Free Advertising

by Shahnaz Rauf
May 11, 2002

Make a search on MSN for the word "directories" and it turns up a list over 27261 long - and some of the excellent submission list sites are not even listed here. Now come on do your math...If you could get your site mentioned in just 1000 of these directories and you get only 1 visitor from just 50% of these sites everyday...Hey you have 500 free targeted visitors everyday!

Imagine what this could mean for your sales and cash flow. Yes...this could be somewhat time consuming but is well worth the effort. For you will not only harness the raw power of directories but also your link popularity will increase. This may result in a better positioning of your site in the search engines and even more traffic.

There are so many simple yet really surefire ways of getting guaranteed targeted traffic to your website. To get you started here is a list of 7 distinct directory categories:

1. Add your site to the DMOZ open directory and it will ultimately appear on partner sites which use the open directory data ­ Google, Hotbot, AOL, DirectHit etc ...And getting into some of these sites might just give you a strong nudge in to Yahoo itself. http://dmoz.org/add.html

2. E-book directories
