Promoting London

As traffic was beginning to settle down here at PromotingLondon I decided it was time to go out marketing and seek some new hyperlinks by submitting the site to some of the plethora of small online directories that exist out in cyberspace. Spent much of yesterday with the submission process for nearly 200 directories of various sizes and format and am already starting to see the backlinks being posted where accepted. It will be interesting to see exactly how much this increases visitor traffic along with the effect it will have on the pagerank of the word cloud.

London has more than a fair share of local online directories to consider listing in, not forgetting the usual suspects in national and international terms. Is it worth the time and [sometimes] money submitting your site to them all? Are there great variances in value of individual directories dependent upon the nature of the content of the submitted site? Over the next couple of weeks I intend to trawl through the stats of the websites I manage to see which directories work best for whom and if any underlying patterns emerge can inform future choices.

Has anyone done similarly recently?
