Are you thinking of a way of bringing additional traffic to your site? Well, consider adding a directory for more traffic. Directories are not just for making money but for drawing traffic via the search engines to your site. Directories usually have much content due to each link's detailed description so that means those keywords will help you gain search engine exposure (Sign up for Google Adwords to utilize their free keyword popularity checker. You do not have to use Google's paid advertising services to use it). If you would like, you can create a general directory with many categories and subcategories or you could make it a niche directory or a directory that only relates to your site's content. You can use it as a reciprocal link directory or a free directory, and if you want, a paid one. If your goal is to gain additional traffic from keywords then you may want to make it a free directory so many sites will be interested in submitting their link to it but beware, anything that is free could make your email address very popular (use a new email seperate from your regular email) so you might want to find useful links and add them to your own directory. A way you could find links is type in "link to us" and a category such as shoes or any type of link you are trying to find in the search engine including the quotes, and sometimes there is already a discription provided that a site would like you to use. Some say that using existing descriptions is not unique content so you may want to alter the provided description or substitute words yourself so it can become UNIQUE which is a great seo practice. Untargeted traffic can be important for your site just as targeted traffic is because it gives your site more exposure and untargeted visitors may like your site and bookmark it for later use when they are in need of your services or products and they may also tell other people about it on social networking sites. Your add-on directory could also make you money by you utilizing affiliate links related to each category of your directory. Some affiliate program networks include Commission Junction and ShareASale which have massive amounts of affiliate programs from multiple categories. Also, please make categories for your directory and subcategories so that it will be organized because throwing up unrelated links on one page will appear as if it is a link farm and linkfarms are considered spam and will get your site penalized on popular search engines so be careful. Remember, directories should be neat so that your visitors would like to return so they can find other things that they need and having unrelated links all over the place will only disinterest them. Also, if you are adding your own links then try adding links with high PageRanks so that search engines will value your link pages more. There you go, now you know that directories can give you more traffic so its time to get started in building one. Try the eSyndiCat directory software script which has been used by over 45,000 websites. This seo friendly PHP script has a countless number of features, plugins, and add ons. If you would like to try it before you buy the full version then do so. The free version does not include all the features so you can compare features here. This PHP directory software script is campatible with the latest versions of popular web browsers which include FireFox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari, and Opera. Once you have purchased an eSyndicat software license for your website then you will be able to turn your directory into an article or bidding directory but for an additional cost. Don't worry, eSyndicat has free add ons or plugins and plenty of stunning templates too. Also, what I noticed about this script is that you can use many payment gateways other than paypal but paypal is still an option for this directory script too. Get started with eSyndicat so you can drive targeted traffic to your site as well as extra income.
