Gaining exposure and traffic for your blog is critical to get followers, readers, and revenue. Following the basics of SEO (using keyword friendly titles, URL structure and descriptions, Wordpress SEO plugins) is not enough. There are many ways to consider when building links to your blog, but few are very easy to implement and cost effective. Basic link building for blogs begins by submitting them to blog directories. It really is the easiest and cost effective way to get some links to your blog.
Here’s the list of 10 popular blog directories to submit your blog to. And it’s completely free, too.
- Blog Catalog
- Blogged
- Blog Search Engine
- Globe of Blogs
- Blogernity
- Bloggapedia
- Blogflux
- Blog Explosion
- Superblog Directory
- Blog Hints
Usually these directories require you to link back to them, when submitting for free. You can, however, buy a permanent link and then you don’t have to link back to them.
There are many more blog directories to submit your blog to. I’ve only listed my personal top 10 preferences, cause they have good Alexa ranking and somewhat decent design at least. To find more simply run a search on your favorite search engine.
