I am hand submitting my URL to as many directories as I can, is there an easier way to do it? I am basically searching for any directory were the listings are pr0 and up.

I am open to any tips I can get

should I be submitting my articles to directories too?

    Try a submission service if you're looking for an easier way. Directory Maximizer is a popular choice, it's about $.04 / submission.

    There are some decent article directories out there, try EZine Articles and IdeaMarketers. The SEO-value of free article and link directories is usually debated, if you're looking for guest blogging opportunities try myblogguest.com.

    Try out the tool named as Fast Directory Submitter. This tool is really helpful in order to submit directories to over 150 different websites.

    ... I should disagree with you. I prefer manual directory submission!
    First- you are not sure which directories would these services pick to place your website inside.
    Second- it could be no-follow (which is a waste of time and money if the service is paid)
    Three- Submitting with the same title and description over and over again will NOT help you (I repeat NOT help you!!!) in your SERP.

    Better try to do this manual and of course you should first write about 10-15 unique titles and about 5-10 unique descriptions (which you can also spin!) and you could b sure that this will help you for great results.

      A web directory or link directory is a directory on the World Wide Web. It specializes in linking to other web sites and categorizing those links.A web directory is not a search engine and does not display lists of web pages based on keywords; instead, it lists web sites by category and subcategory. Most web directory entries are also not found by web crawlers but by humans.

    In my opinion using automated tools for submitting directories will not be successful. In that option you cannot select the appropriate categories to submit your links.
