While submitting your website to online directories may have lost some it its luster, it's still a great starting point to begin your link building campaigns. Below are a few directories that are not being penalized by Google and still pass on PageRank.

Directory	Submit	Cost	Comments

DMOZ	Submit	Free	It could take up to a year for your site to get listed. It all depends on the editor for the category you are submitting to. Do NOT continually re-submit your site, as all that does is put you to the end of the queue each time. If you feel you want to try and re-submit, wait at least several months to do so.

Yahoo Directory	Submit	$299/year for commercial sites, free otherwise	Try submitting your site for free first. If it's been a month and still no listing, then pay to get in. Your site will also be listed in several international Yahoo directories.

Business.com	Submit	$299/year	For link building just get the standard annual listing, not a PPC featured listing (which is redirected link).

Best of the Web	Submit	Free for non-commercial sites. $69.95/year or $199.95 one-time.	Many of Best of the Web's Category pages have high Google Page Rank without that many outgoing links. Good value.

Librarians' Internet Index	Submit	Free	A very high-quality link, but not easy to get. Websites go through a thorough review and must have a lot of informational content to be listed.

GoGuides	Submit	$69.95 per URL.	Websites are instantly included. No refund if listed.

JoeAnt.com	Submit	$39.99 one-time fee, free for editors	Guaranteed review within two business days.

Rubber Stamped	Submit	$29.95 one-t me review fee.	Good link from a growing directory.
