Directories are an excellent means of website promotion. They are inexpensive compared to other methods of advertising.

The Big Web Links Directory is somewhat unique, compared to its competition. Depending on the specific directory you are looking at, sites will be ranked in one of several ways. Google page rank, alphabetical order, traffic stats and date of submission are just a few ways that sites may be listed, in a directory.
Big Web Links is different. The aim of this human edited directory is to provide site visitors with the most popular websites, on the Internet. Simply put, the best of the best!

The directory ranks listings by the total dollar amount, contributed to the listing, by the site owner. One of the biggest benefits, of this ranking system, is that it offers some clues as to the quality of traffic from a specific website.
Instead of just clicking on a link to increase a site ranking, visitors can make a small (or large) monetary contribution that will boost the rank of that specific website. In a sense, it also helps raise the rank of other sites, as well. How? A portion of the profits are, of course, used for promoting the directory, itself. Contributions can be made by anyone and everyone.
Big Web Links has included, both, a ‘top ten links’ and a ‘latest links’ section, onsite. The directory is very easy to navigate and does not utilize flashy banners, of any kind. (It’s very easy on the eyes!)

There are many benefits to submitting a listing, to this directory. The process is a very simple one. Listings actually receive two links; the first in the specified category of choice and the second on a dedicated page.
Listings are permanent and there are no recurring fees, of any kind. (There is an affordable one-time fee, for all new listings.) All links are search engine friendly and visitor traffic is targeted.

When it comes to promoting a blog, one of the easiest ways to do so is through a blog directory. Because the vast majority of directories will add your blog for an affordable fee, it is very cost effective, as well.

One such directory is the Alive Blog Directory. The site, itself, has a very clean look. The color scheme is very pleasing to the eye and navigation could not be easier. There are no flashy banners or buttons to be found.

As of this writing, there are more than twenty top-level categories to consider when submitting a blog. Categories include: blog resources, business, education, entertainment, finance, lifestyle, news and media, pets, politics, society, technology, travel and more.

The general submission information, at Alive Blog Directory, is clearly stated. They offer featured and regular listings, in a wide range of prices. The placement of a regular listing is determined by the page rank, of that particular page.
Featured listings are placed above regular listings. They are highlighted, as well. Depending on your budget, it is highly recommended to opt for this type of listing. Why? It is a proven fact that those who use directories or search engines, to perform Internet searches, typically only browse the first one or two pages of listings.

There are some basic rules to follow when submitting to the Alive Blog Directory. First and foremost, it is important to include a well-written site description with your submission. This will ensure that your site will be listed in a timely manner. (If the description needs to be edited or re-written, it will slow down the process.)

The directory does not allow listings which feature adult-related sites, sites under construction, re-directed sites or links to an affiliate program. Listings must be submitted in English.

Alive Blog Directory provides information in regard to the newest links listed in the database and the top ten most popular links. Another interesting aspect of the site is that it offers a list of other directories, which are currently seeking submissions.

Directories are a wonderful way to promote a website or blog. With minimal effort and a bit of patience, this marketing method is a sure fire way to achieve higher search engine rankings.
