2017 Latest Updated Free Social Bookmarking Sites List

Search engines will often list results from bookmarking sites. So if your site is bookmarked, this is an extra opportunity to show up in search results. Being featured on one bookmarking site can often lead to people tagging your site on other bookmarking sites. This may sound rather strange, but people who book mark may use more than one bookmarking site. If you are lucky they may find you through one site and bookmark you on another, which is a great opportunity for web site promotion.

1. Search for directories on Google

A simple way to look for directories relevant to your business is to search for them on Google or another search engine.

As a rule, some of these directories would be free to join, some would be paid, and some may have certain requirements (such as, you need to be a member of their association) and would add your company automatically once you meet the requirements.

2. Examine your competitors’ backlinks

Another good way to find relevant directories that are likely to help your site rank higher and are safe to get backlinks from, is to analyze the backlinks of your top-ranking competitors.

It’s up to you how many competitors you’d like to analyze (you can do the top 5 or the top 25) – the point is to be to be able to quickly filter out the backlinks that are not directory links and to end up with a list of directories.

For example, using our SEO SpyGlass tool, one can see competitor backlinks that come from directories in a separate window and analyze them there.

3. Analyze directories for quality, popularity and integrity

Now, once you have done some initial research, you’d want to narrow your list of directories down to those that are really worth getting listed in. How can you tell which are?

Estimate their quality

To get an idea what a directory is worth SEO- and traffic-wise, pay attention to the following metrics:

The website’s domain age
The domain’s PageRank and the PageRank of the page where the listing will be located
The number of backlinks pointing to the page
The number of external, outgoing links from the page
The URL, the title and the description of the page your listing will be appearing on

(it’s nice when these have your industry or your local keywords)

The directory’s user interface
The search tools the directory offers
The amount and the depth of information the directory provides

To get this data, you can use any of the available SEO toolbars or SEO software that can analyze a site for these parameters.

As you may see form the list, one should analyze the directory not only from the SEO point of view, but also from the user-experience point of view, because the more search/comparison features it offers and the better it is at presenting and structuring information, the more likely you are to get direct traffic and conversions from it.
