home > design services > directory submission Directory submission and link development servicesDirectory enhancement and link development are a very important part of an online marketing plan. In fact, link popularity has become increasingly important for achieving top search engine visibility. Grantastic Designs can help you develop a solid link development strategy that will help boost your site's overall "findability" on the web. We provide a variety of services for making your site more "findable" in the major directories. Please select a link below for a brief description of our directory enhancement and link development services: Keyword/category research and selectionDirectory enhancement and link development begins with keyword and category research so that your site displays optimally in major directories such as Yahoo, Open Directory, and LookSmart. We will provide you with the best categories and descriptions for your directory submissions. Directories vary in the number of words they will accept in a description, and they often have different categories. We tailor every submission to the major directories to increase the probability that your site will be accepted. Before we provide this service, we prefer to consult with you to determine what your ultimate goals are for your site so that we target your most important products and services.
Web site design/content analysisDid you know that your web site design can prevent your site from being listed well in the directories as well as the search engines? Directories editors are looking for characteristics of a legitimate business and/or information provider, and these characteristics need to be present on your web site BEFORE you submit your site. We can analyze your site and provide you with the information needed to have the most effective design and content for your web site, sites that directory editors prefer.
Site submission, link development, and monitoringGrantastic Designs will submit your site to the major directories and industry-related sites that tend to deliver the most effective results. We can provide site monitoring and resubmission, if necessary. We submit to the following directories:
Note: There are submission costs involved with LookSmart (a pay-per-click directory) and Yahoo ($299) submissions. Before we provide this service, we prefer to consult with you first because different types of web sites have different needs. For example, health-care web sites are different from financial web sites. Link development is generally costed out on an hourly basis.
Directory submission and link development trainingDirectory enhancement is a mandatory part of our search engine visibility training, but you can receive directory submission as a single training module. If you have a large site that has a wide variety of services and products, then it might be more cost effective to receive training. Directory training is generally a 1-day course. If you are interested in viewing our training syllabus, please fill out our quotation form with your URL and the number of people you would like trained.

Despite
what other online marketing companies claim, no one can guarantee
top directory placement because there is a 3rd party who has all
of the control: the directory editors. What we can guarantee is
that we will help you with keyword and category selection, submission,
and optimal site design.
