As part of my SEO Method we use a service called Directory Maximizer. The guys behind Directory Maximizer break down their service down into simple 3 parts…
1. A team of experts manually submit you site to a list of quality directories.
2. You get permanent one-way links from relevant categories in the directories.
3. These links improve your rankings and increase your traffic.
Sounds simple and effective huh?! It does, BUT at the same time in the Internet Marketing world, the perceived importance of directory submissions appears to have waned dramatically. Some people argue that it’s not as effective as it used to be and subsequently no longer worthwhile.
With this in mind, I decided to track down Sameer Panjwani, one of the guys behind Directory Maximizer to get the lowdown straight from the Maximizer’s mouth 🙂 As always, I recorded the call for you…

I have a 3-year old site but I’ve only started to seriously build links to it just a few months back. Do you think it would still do my site any good if I submit to directories or use a service like Directory Maximizer?
Hi Steve,
I personally wouldn’t submit to directories manually – they’re just too time consuming and don’t provide a good ROI. I would only consider directory submissions (as part of a complete SEO strategy) with a service such as directory maximiser.
If you don’t have the $… focus on ezinearticle submissions. You’ll get a better result there. If you want to find out more grab a copy of my http://www.theSEOmethod.com

Considering looking into this to be listed in some directories. Thanks for the unbiased review. Do you have a time table that they build the links, or is it pretty quickly done?
