Is this Directory Guide by SEOmoz still accurate?

 I think a new list of the top 10 or 20 would suffice for the time being while the rest are being deteremined viable or not.

 thanks Petra, JoeAnt charges a onetime fee of $39.99 USD. I would rather pay the fee.

 The 3 resources you mentioned are stil valuable. A tipp regarding JoeAnt, it is quiet easy to become an editor there, then you don't have to pay for the input.

 In the meantime it might not be a bad idea to add a warning or just take it down.

 To be honest, it's more than a year out of date, and not the best resource. We've talked internally about a replacement, but need to spec it out and find a contractor (and we have so many other improvements/upgrades/features to PRO we're in the process of making). That said, I'll ask the team to look into it further. I do think a great directory list would be a valuable part of PRO content. postscript update: We have a project in process to replace this with something very cool, updatable and more scalable, too. I believe launch ETA is Q3 of 2011. Justin Briggs from Distilled and Cyrus Shepard from Moz are working on this together.

		This directory looks great - would you agree?
 I know people have mixed feelings towards submitting their sites to directories, but this one really seemed special, so I decided to share the opportunity with the Moz community, as well as open up a discussion on the value of being a part of this directory (and similar ones.) We recently submitted our site to Dial a Human (www.dialahuman.com) It is a directory of companies' phone numbers, which go directly to a person (bypassing the machines.) I think this directory actually does provide users with value, and is far from your typical link farm. The Page Authority is 56 and the Domain Authority is 47, and it is a PR5 site. The other companies listed are all extremely reputable (most of them are fortune 500 companies.) The fee to join is $75-$150, but to be included with this group of companies, we felt it was very worthwhile. We would join this type of directory over and over again. Would you? If you have any other directories which are of the same caliber please share! Link Building | | JMacSupply0

		What is the purpose of submitting your blog articles to directories?
 I was wondering what the purpose of submitting your blog articles to directories are. Doesn't it require enough "points" or "+1's" for it to become a "do-follow" link? People on the forum talk about automating directory submission, can anyone recommend a good software for this? I've been hearing that Google Penalizes you for article submission because it looks like spam? Link Building | | kevinyu10290

		How do paid directories like thomasnet.com do so well in the serps? Aren't the Panda updates supposed to be moving us away from this?
 With all of the updates/changes to Google's algo, I assumed that paid listings & links like those on thomasnet.com would have less merit. Is this an incorrect assumption? Link Building | | PropelMike0

		Asking other websites to link your website when the want to be in your directory
 Hello, We have 3 web directories, and I wonder if it is legal for search engines to ask people who want to be in the directory to link to a particular website in order to be in our directory. I mean, it is free adding the url in the directory but if they lwant to be in the directory they have to ink to a website we have decided. Link Building | | teconsite.com
 Is this correct, or is punishable? Thanks!0
