Would You Pay to get Your Site Submitted to Link Directories?

Abdul Qoyyuum on Link, Backlink, Submission, Link Exchange, Link Submission, Traffic

I have seen some websites offering this and I wonder if people do actually pay to get their site URL submitted to all of these link directories. There's about 2000 directories by my count.

I won't...there's just no point in submitting to any link directories today.

Why not?

Directory links (paid or unpaid) have almost no value for search engines.

It's also an antiquated way of classifying information in the net (before search engines).

waste of money

Definitely not smart and a wast of money and most importantly it would be bad for your site reputation as google search engines don't exactly work like they used to, i mean thats not the right way to link. If you read this article/articles you will understand more what i mean.

Nope. Waste of money. Better to build relationships and backlinks with related site owners, not faceless directories.
