Re: Web directory submission!
Google doesn't link paid links that pass on PageRank. That doesn't mean they have a good mechanism to track it. However, I have yet to pay for a link. Many will suggest Yahoo as one that is probably worth it to pay for, despite the high price tag.
Article sites have been a nice source of links, as well as, many free directories (of which have been posted in other places in the forum). You just have to realize that you get what you pay for. Free links can take awhile to be processed.
I've recently been posting relavent comments on blogs. These don't usually count as backlinks, but if people like your comments they will come over for a visit and see what you are about. Then they may make a blog post about you.
I've also seen people offer sponsored blog posts. The links in the post generally do count as back links. Again, we haven't done this, but I do know a site that did and their rankins seemed to increase dramatically.
Be interesting to see others feedback.
cd :O)
