The Root Directory is a human edited web directory of high quality web resources offering visitors the ability to search for proven Internet resources while giving website owners and webmasters a gateway to promote their websites on the Internet and search engines. The websites listed in our Root Directory benefit from gaining higher Google Page Rank and Anchor text optimization of inbound links which results in higher ranking on the search engines.

Getting your website listed in the Root Directory offers the following benefits:

 

    1. Highly Organized Content - Our editors ensure websites will appear in the correct category, helping our visitors find relevant websites faster and the search engines to better classify website content.
    2. Stringent Submission Guidelines Equal High Quality Content - Our editors are a finicky bunch and make sure inappropriate low quality websites never make it into our directory. We regularly turn down directory submissions due low quality content, pop up ads and duplicate content.
    3. Anchor Text Optimization - Google, Yahoo and MSN use inbound link text or so called “Anchor Text” in their ranking algorithms. The more inbound links you have pointing to your website with a wide variety of target keywords in the anchor text the higher your website will rank.
    4. Free or Paid Submission Options - If your website meets our submission guidelines you can get a free listing in our directory by pointing a link back to our website. Paid listing option is available to those website owners who wish to gain one-way links and a more prominent place in our directory.
