Hi guys,

Thanks for your help with my last question (also directories related, raising questions about my originality) and thanks to Chris for blogging it. :)

Anyway, on a similar note, I'm wondering if there's a list of "good" directories I could post to, and be sure they are actually benefitting my SEO efforts. I know DMoz is highly regarded by Google, but what of the others out there? I hear stories of Google banning directories, and while I now know it (probably) won't effect me I still would like to know I'm not wasting my time!

If it's any help, my website is in the travel sector. So decent travel related directories are especially welcome.

Cheers again guys! :)

Your main prioroity should be relevant, qualified traffic. If the link passes some PR all the better but IMO, increasing your visibility should be your number one priority.

Speaking of Chris Boggs, you can check with this thread he started about "Other Directories:"

i agree with buckfastmonk! relevancy and with the most appropriate category will help you.. sometimes, we use our own judgment on choosing the best directory and we think we can gain traffic and backlinks from it.

Please keep discussion to deciding which are the best directories rather than posting URLs or lists. Thanks!
