Lets keep it simple

Every once in a while you must have come across the term “301 redirects” at webmaster boards, SEO discussions and while talking about website development. Like most of you all I too was totally confused and gave up on understanding it, thinking that it was nothing more than a technical jargon.

301 redirects or permanent redirects are a topic that we all need to understand as it does have an implication in relation to SEO and the SERPs and can also be of use when we move the pages or the website around.

So now that I know what these things are, I though best to share.

In this post I hope to explain the concept of these redirects and the implication they have on site development.

***This is the first review request, so hope to do justice to it.

Every webmaster loves the word SEO or for than matter the concept of SEO. I have seen like a thousand usernames in forums having the word SEO squeezed in them. I personally have tried my hand in SEO and have actually finished in the top 10 result in a heavily contested SEO contest.(CarCasher, some of you might remember that)

But whenever I looked for advice, I hunted for the most heavily guarded SEO secrets and failed to implement the basics. That was what nulled some of my efforts and had me asking myself that where was I going wrong.

My advice for mastering any topic would be to be very strong in your basics as then move on from there.

Today I have got an opportunity to review one of the most neglected concepts of SEO and a website that seems to have built an expertise in it: SEO Meter

Article Summary - Benefits of submitting to a free web directory and tips for making the perfect submission

The perfect question to be branded as a newbie at any webmaster forums

How does submitting to web directories help my sites ?

One cannot blame them as this was exactly the thought that came to my mind when I submitted my link to the first free web directory at V7N.

Now times have changed and being in constant touch with web directories and issues (thanks to Info Vilesilencer an DP), I am now in a position to answer that question myself.

This question is time and again asked across webmaster forums and so i decided to write this article explaining the benefits of submitting to a free web directory and the points to keep in mind for making the perfect submission.

Defining a web directory:

A web directory is technically a bookmark site where weblinks are categorized under various topics. It is like an online yellow pages where a visitor tends to looks for a website as per his topic of requirement.

Think of yourself as looking for a plumber in the yellow pages, wherein, you locate the topic of your requirement (in these case plumbers) in the index and flip through the pages to find the contact of the resource. In the case of a web directory, it happens online with the use of mouse clicks.

Web Directory as defined in the wiki ~ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_directory

There are many web directories which offer free inclusion, wherein, one can submit their site, and have editors review these submissions for possible inclusion in their directory index.

If you are a marketing and a big budget guy, you may argue that submitting to free web directories would be a pointless activity and may also try to equate it as a loss of time and effort.

I would disagree as I do believe that there are still many quality free web directory that can increase the link popularity of your website that would in turn benefit your SERPs.

Traffic coming from these free web directories would be minimum, but traffic is the byproduct of your submission to these directories.

When I say a byproduct, I would mean that as and when these directories approve your links in their index, each addition of your website link would increase your backlink count which would in turn help you raise your keyword ranking, helping you bring the best targeted traffic for free via the Search Engines.

Mind you, traffic otherwise can be very expensive.
