    Those links won’t pass any page rank for the most part but Google will assign a trust factor to your site if it’s listed in quality directories.

      That's just total BS. Why wouldn't a directory pass page rank? On average these may not be the best links you'll ever find, but a good directories still work.

      Also, this "Trust factor" seems like a figment of imagination. Not to mention it's completely bonkers to claim that Google doesn't pass page rank, but pass some magical woo instead. You know, because of reasons.

      Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
      Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

      What's your excuse?

    Directory links are just one type of links. They are good for only one reason: diversity. Nothing more, nothing less. Having them will make your backlinks profile look more natural. If I were you I would try to have directory links from DMOZ, Yahoo business directory and Alexa. Use on each of them unique title and description and you will be OK.

    Yes I have seen the results personally for the directory submission. if you only submit your pages in the directories. You can rank in search engine. It has a nice authority in terms of SEO.

      I do wonder to what extend directory's still work tho. And/or if there is a difference between the US and let's say; Europe. or smaller country's.
