To earn revenue and for bringing targeted traffic to our blog, we need lots of link building with quality content. And submitting our blogs on major blog directories is the first or basic step in this direction. Today, there are thousands of blog directories available where we can submit our blogs and many more directories are created everyday.

So submitting our blog to hundreds or thousands of such directories will be really time consuming and tedious task. So the idea is submitting our blog on just top blog directories may be on top 5 or 10 or even on top 20. So here is the list of my top 10 popular blog directories where you can submit your blog:

  1. Best of the Web blog directory
  2. EatonWeb the Blog Directory
  3. Blog Catalog Directory
  4. Blog Flux Directory
  5. Blogarama
  6. Blogoozle
  7. Globe of Blogs
  8. Blog Universe
  9. Bloggeries
  10. Bloggapedia
  1. Best of the Web blog directory – was originally started in 1994 by Brandon Plewe when he was a student at the State University of New York. And he recently launched the ‘Best of the web blog directory’. This directory is very selective about the acceptance of blogs and accepts blogs that are really valuable and are in existence for quite some time. So a link from this blog directory can do lots of wonder for you. So it is worth submitting your blog in this directory. Before submitting your blog here in this directory, you must be satisfying their ‘Terms & Conditions’ and especially check this term:

    The blog I am suggesting is in an active blog, with six months or more of postings, is in the English language, contains substantively unique content, and does not already appear in the BOTW Blog Directory.

  2. EatonWeb the Blog Directory – They are claiming this directory being the oldest blog directory on the internet with Page Rank 7 registered in 1997. Once our blog is accepted here in this oldest blog directory on the web, our blog authority in its niche will automatically increase. Each blog that is accepted on EatonWeb gets three rankings: Strength, momentum and overall.
  3. Blog Catalog Directory – is one of oldest social blog directory where we can share and view blogs of our choice. We have to register to submit one or more of our blogs here. This blog directory has wide range of categories and is offering search ability by country, language or even by user.
  4. Blog Flux Directory – is a great blog directory with wide range of categories shown in alphabetic order. With this, blog Flux is offering many useful tools for the bloggers like page rank checker, Mapstats, Pinger, polls, quizzes, themes and community to join. We have to register to submit our blog in this great directory.
  5. Blogarama – Need to create an account to submit our blog here on Blogarama with 80413 blogs listed already. They are offering free as well as paid listing (For $10)
  6. Blogoozle – They are accepting free as well as paid blog submission. Blogs under free review must have page rank 1 at least and for paid review, blog owners have to pay $7. Some of important guidelines from Blogoozle that blogger should go though before submitting their blogs here in seo friendly blog directory:
    • Blogs that we do not accept: Made For Adsense (MFA) blogs, blogs that consist of mainly affiliate links, blogs selling illegal products, blogs that offer pirated software, blogs that are under construction or only have one post, adult blogs, gambling,and any other blog that is not deemed to be family friendly. Blogs that discuss paydays loans and/or any other preditory loan/banking tactic will be rejected.
    • Your blog MUST be duplicate content free. If your blog can not pass the duplicate filters at copyscape.com and Google.com your blog will be rejected from the directory. In other words no sblogs.
    • Your Blog MUST be at least 3 months old and have at least 1 post in the last 5 days.
    • You must use the name of your blog as your title, unless you select the Featured Blog Link plan. Titles of blogs that were submitted under the Regular Blog Links and contain keywords will be edited.
    • Please add usefull and very accurate descriptions. Descriptions in the third person are preferred. Don’t use ALL CAPITALS or all lower case. Do not include pricing details, special offers, the url of the blog or your email. Do not use promotional language in your description, let the other people decide if you have the best, the biggest, the greatest blog on the planet. All promotional language will be removed and/or cause your blog to be deleted.
  7. Globe of Blogs – This directory is accepting free submission and link back is optional. This service is offering search by Author as well as by weblog title, topic or location. We have to register our blog to get listed in the list of 63,941 blogs that are already listed here.

Thanks for the sites! I hope I’d be able to increase my traffic in my site. :)

Good list, but the red highlight makes it almost impossible to read. Thought you might want to know, I would! Glad I found your site. There’s a really good ‘mom blog’ directory at momblognetwork.com .

I’ve also thought if I had the technology to do it, a ‘boomer’ blog network would be a good one right now when the boomer population is surging online looking for their second wind. Maybe there is one and I don’t know about it…
