			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://im-fun.com/go/DirectorySubmitter"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-180" title="Directory Submitter" src="http://im-fun.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/468x60_3_animated.gif" alt="Directory Submitter" width="468" height="60" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This is what I use for submitting my sites to website directories.  I know there&#8217;s a debate about how useful &#8220;directories&#8221; are for improving <strong>search engine ranking, </strong>but it&#8217;s hard to argue with the benefits of getting a bunch of 1-way backlinks for <em>free</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Some people complain that directories are a waste of time because &#8220;they&#8217;re sooooo 1999&#8243; (ie. Web 1.0) and not hip and trendy like social bookmarking sites.  I don&#8217;t subscribe to that jazz.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Here&#8217;s the features that I like about <a title="Directory Submitter" href="http://im-fun.com/go/DirectorySubmitter" target="_blank"><strong>Directory Submitter</strong></a>:</span></p>
<ul>
<li>Ability to see and <span style="text-decoration: underline;">sort by</span> <strong>Google PageRank</strong> in the list of available directories (there&#8217;s 350!).  <span style="color: #0000ff;">I only choose the ones with PR of 4 or higher</span>.</li>
<li>Can create a &#8220;project&#8221; for each of your sites and submit them all</li>
<li>Tracking of which directory you&#8217;ve submitted each site to</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">This is the shit that annoys me:</span></p>
<ul>
<li>When you delete a directory it <strong>re-appears</strong> in the list the next time the app opens</li>
<li>No way to just sit back and let the submissions happen automatically; you have to <strong>manually change between</strong> directories and projects</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: left;">The complaints above may simply be because I&#8217;m too much of a cheap-ass to buy the <em>full version </em>so I&#8217;m stuck with limited functionality.  Anyways, I haven&#8217;t found anything better yet, but if you have let me know!</p>
