F.A.Q.
Listing your company in reputable business directories strengthens your backlink profile and increases your brand’s online presence. Search engines highly regard these directories for their credibility, which translates into higher rankings for your website.
We focus on selecting trusted directories with solid traffic to ensure that every link contributes real SEO value and attracts relevant visitors to your business.
To find appropriate white directories, start with a targeted web search using terms like “business directories in [your industry]” or “top web directories for businesses.” Examining your competitors’ backlink profiles can also reveal effective directories.
However, identifying quality directories requires expertise. At LinkBuilder.com, we assist you by filtering and selecting only those directories that align with your industry and SEO goals.
For the best results, submit your website to directories that serve your audience’s needs. An effective strategy includes:
Global directories with strong domain authority, such as Crunchbase, Yelp, Hotfrog, and Cylex.
Industry-specific directories that cater to your niche market, for example, Clutch or GoodFirms for agencies, Avvo for legal professionals, or Behance for creatives.
Local directories that target geographic regions relevant to your business, like 2GIS, Zoon, or Spravker.
Our team tailors directory selections to ensure links provide genuine SEO impact and audience engagement.
We prioritize quality and natural link profiles over mass submissions. For newer websites, we recommend initiating with approximately 30 directory placements monthly, adjusting this based on your site’s current link profile and market competition.
LinkBuilder.com will develop a strategic plan to maximize the effectiveness of every directory listing and secure sustainable ranking improvements.
Our process begins by carefully selecting verified and industry-relevant directories. Each business profile is manually crafted to meet the unique requirements of each directory.
We actively monitor submissions, communicate with directory admins if needed, and ensure your listings go live smoothly. This thorough approach guarantees the acquisition of high-quality backlinks and improved search engine visibility.
Investing in paid business directories can be advantageous when the directory has strong traffic, excellent reputation, and reaches your target market effectively.
At LinkBuilder.com, we evaluate paid directories rigorously, recommending only those that offer meaningful SEO returns. Sometimes, a single well-chosen paid listing can deliver better results than multiple free listings.
Balancing paid and free directory listings strategically helps you maximize your SEO budget and increase your brand exposure steadily.
Typically, you can expect to see the impact of directory listings within 1 to 2 months as search engines index the new backlinks and adjust rankings accordingly.
Quality directories require moderation, and stricter ones demand comprehensive information. We recommend combining directory submissions with continuous on-site SEO improvements to achieve the best results in search visibility and user engagement.
