How many directory submissions do you do in a day and are safe?
I am working on this now but I have heard a lot of different numbers from not more than 5 a day to 100 or more.
Also, how do you do the directory submissions? Do you vary the keywords in that same day or do a batch with one keyword?
any advice would be appreciated!

    Do not worry on how many directory submissions you do in a day. You can do it as much as you can. Directory submissions can be done by finding a list of directory sites (very easy to find because there are thousands of them in Google). You will choose a category relevant to your site and them you will just fill the form, submit it, and wait until your link is approved.

      (To clarify)
      Because it is very unlikely that all the directories will accept your site ...

      And those that do will approve at different times....

    Just a quick point - a lot of directories out there aren't worth your time and effort posting your site on. If you were posting your site on 100 a day - my guess is 99 of them would be junk.

      Not all, but most free directories are a waste of time. Either they accept junk, or they have to spend so much time reviewing free submissions that it can takes months for an approval.

    Well I have decided to go the directory way because my top competitor has recently added 1000 of them and he currently holds first place for all of my keywords. I figured it helped him it might help me??

    Directory submission is a marketing practice followed by the web master. Directory submission plan allows usage of single url, multiple titles and single description to be submitted in different directories.

    Directory submission is one of the most important things to do when it is link building. It's a guaranteed way to get links from hard road back to the desired domain or subdomain.
