Register your company and jump on someone else's web promotion budget with industry and market specific directories There are many online trade directories dedicated to listing web sites in your industry. Most of these are free and some charge. Complimentary to our search engine submissions service, ADK can provide research of these directories and if required, submit your directory entry as part of our search engine optimisation service.

Trade directories can be trade specific but most are general trade directories with categories. Most use dynamic technologies, so the inbound link benefit is minimal, but direct hits from these directories can increase your site traffic quite considerably. Try UK Small Business Directory.

We believe that one should submit their site to the most common directories such as Open Directory, etc. It's also a good idea to search for free local and regional directories as well as internet ones. Alongside local government business sites, look for directories that reflect your target market.Also include exporting, newspaper sites and supply chain sites.

Some businesses invest in having their website and site submission in a different language. Whilst you will find your site eventually appearing on most directories by using the free submission methods already outlined, this may not be enough for your organization.If you want to get more highly ranked then paid submission is an option and Yahoo, Looksmart and others operate a fee based system for commercial sites.

If you wish to use the paid submission service then you can choose to submit your own site or employ ADK to do it for you.

Researching and submitting to directories can take time, and depending on the exposure your site needs, it can eat away at your web site budget. The reason for this is because a manual selection is usually required and as with most directories one has to fill out the entry manually. However, this search engine optimisation technique can suit any sized budget. It just depends on how much you want to do yourself.
