We have have to make difference between quality web directories and non quality (spam free) web directories and the consequences of submitting to these types of directories.

Some webmasters doesn't distinguish between quality directories and non quality and think that submitting to all web directories would help promoting in gaining traffic, back links and ranking better in search engines which is a huge mistake.

Other webmaster think that all web directories are no longer helpful in promoting their web sites and think that submitting to all web directories will negatively affect their web ranking in search engines, which is a mistake as well.

After experience and working in web directories domain for a long time i have concluded that there are two types of directories in which we have to distinguish between and the rest of directories fall between these two types; quality and non quality (spam free) directories.

Submitting your web site to quality web directories will help you promote your web site by providing your web site with quality back links which will help your web site rank better in search engines and will help your web site gain another natural source of traffic along with the links traffic source.

In the other hand submitting your web site to non quality web directories will affect your web site negatively by decreasing your rank in search engines, thus losing natural traffic from search engines and may lead to complete ban of your web site in the advanced time.

So you may wonder what is the difference between quality web directories and non quality web directories!

Quality web directories have to be:
* Search engine friendly directories.
* They only accept and list quality SEO websites rich in content and information thus they contain real quality source of websites to provide for visitors.
* They have a good rank in SERP (Search Engines Result Pages).
* They reject spam or non quality web sites and thus provide pure source.

Non quality web sites:
* usually they have non optimized web site.
* They accept and list all kind of links and web sites and doesn't give a value for quality or non quality web sites.
* They don't have any ranking in SERP.
* They don't last longer until they get banned or deleted.

So excluding all web directories quality and non quality is like excluding an important key feature to success in SEO and getting better rank in search engines and thinking that all web directories are a key feature in SEO is a huge mistake.

You have to distinguish between the two types of directories, submit only to quality directories and avoid the non quality directories.
