<h1>Directories & Google</h1><p> Directories & Google <br>By Clare Lawrence 15th August 2004 <br><br>Can listings in directories help my rank on Google? <br><br>Google the leading search engine considers several actors in its ranking algorithm, firstly it considers the text content of a sites web pages and decides what theme it belongs to. <br><br>Next it looks at the number of links inbound to each page, particularly important are links from related themed web pages. <br><br>So a web page about domain names, using the key phrase domain name registration with lots of links inbound from related sites such as other domain registration will do well. <br><br>A sites content rank will depend on its rating compared to other competitive websites. Greater relevancy and linkage brining a better ranking. <br><br>Directories if properly constructed can fit the bill. Remember Google resolves web pages and not sites, so if a directory has a page sufficiently dedicated to your theme then it is worth submitting to. <br><br>Directories can use ‘jump text’ which prevents data harvesting, but unfortunately removes the value of the links. <br><br>Should I pay or not? There are sufficient free directories out there, so there is no need to pay. <br><br>Ones to consider – DMOZ, allthebizz, smallerbizz, Gimpsy, wowdirectory. <br><br>Larger directories such as Yahoo maybe worth paying to list in as they can bring traffic in their own right. <br /><br /> <br /><br /> <p><br /><br /> ABOUT THE AUTHOR <br /><br /> <br><br /><br /> Clare Lawrence is CEO of Discount Domains Ltd – A leading UK provider of Domain name registration and Web Hosting services.
