What is a Directory?A categorized index of web sites that does not use robots is called a directory. All sites that are indexed are submitted manually. You need to submit your web site under a relavant category, after which an editor will review your site and then accept or reject your site according to its content.
Guidelines while submitting to Directories
Good site design, fast loading pages, and informative content are very important issues.
From the homepage of a directory take your time and find the appropriate category your site fits into. You can do a keyword search using your most important keywords or key phrases and note the category that lists these sites. That will probably be the best category for your site. You may also have multiple categories, in which case you must submit under all the suitable categories.
Once you have found a suitable category, look out for a "Suggest a site" or an "Add URL" link. Click on this link to submit your site.
Since Directories do not use robots, your best bet is to describe your site accurately as the final decision of adding your web site to a directory's database rests with the editor who reviews your web site.
