In the last few weeks I have been blogging a lot about link building and various marketing strategies for acquiring one-way links. Free press release services and social networks were covered but there are many other ways you can build Web authority through link building and today, I am going to discuss something a little different that no one seems to talk about; Link building with tag directory submission!

Just like the usual directories you can find on the Web, tag directories offer a listing of websites that are categorized by subject but instead of using title tags and company names to list websites, tag directories use keywords.

Now most SEO specialists would agree on the importance of getting one-way links from authoritative websites and optimizing anchor text so why not use tag directories as part of your link building strategy? Not only there is potential for more traffic and visibility but you also get a good anchor text.

My Favorite: TagDiri!

The best tag directory I found so far is called TagDiri. For about $2 per character, TagDiri allows you to add a permanent do-follow tag using the anchor text of your choice. That’s right. Only $6 for high competitive keywords such as “PPC”, “SEM” and “SEO”! Just compare with PPC costs for such competitive keywords and you will soon realize that it is a good investment. Most categories show a solid PR 4 or 5 and surprisingly, some of them still have less than 10 tags listed so go ahead and reserve yours today!
