Because I have a lot of submissions to sift through, I am not very likely to correct any of the information in the website listing. It is much easier and quicker for me to hit the delete key instead of editing something. This is not good for me, as a web directory owner, because I want to have as complete a picture as I can feasibly get of the submissions I receive. This is also not good for the submitting webmaster because they lose a possible backlink and they have also wasted their time.

The solution, of course, is to submit your website information correctly the first time. That way, you should only have to submit your information one time.

Always choose the most appropriate category to submit your website to. In most directories, you usually have to navigate to the proper category first, and then add your URL. Always submit the top level of your domain. Don’t try to submit http://www.linkstoyour.com/Blogs. Instead, submit http://www.linkstoyour.com. Don’t use excessive keywords in your submission. Check the URL that you are submitting. You only get one chance at it.

Follow these simple website submission rules and most web directories will approve your website submission and give your website a backlink.
