  • Check that they don’t require reciprocal links (cos that’s what we prefer)
  • Check you can afford the price (if you’re lucky it will be free)
  • Search for the category that fits your website - for some sectors this can be quite impossible!
  • Modify your description to fit the directory’s requirements - oh the tears when they have a minimum length that’s much longer than any of your standard descriptions
  • Press the submit button (or equivalent)
  • Wait for the confirmation email (some of them require you visit a link - ugh!)

Over and over and over again.

:-) Sorry for the rant - had to let it out !
