Looking for resources and places to promote my websites today, I came across the folowing web directories that will help boost your traffic and increase your search engine rankings. I made sure to find sites that will fit any budget. Take a look at these sites:
A Free Directory is a brand new site (about a week old) that uses a customized version of a free template. The result? Eye-catching and unique. You can get a free or paid featured link and the sites are approved within 24 hours – talk about service.
Directory of Sites is a brand new site (a day or so old) so is yet unproven. They offer free and paid links on the site and the approval for my sites was pretty quick. It remains to be seen how this site does, but I have a good feeling about it… time will tell though.
The Best Damn Links Page is just that – a great directory. This one is an example of what you can do with an older site to make it great again. Whether you have no advertising budget or some money to spend, anyone can get a backlink from this site.
Tower Promote Free Link Directory is a directory on an old, established domain. Search engines tend to rank links from older sites as more important than newer ones, so a listing here is a must. You have three choices of links including free and reciprocal as well as paid featured listings.
Mitefind Paid Link Directory is not a free directory, though I thought I should mention it here anyways. For less than two dollars, you can get a backlink from this site which is an old established domain. Why pay? Usually with a paid directory, your site listing is approved faster which means your link gets indexed faster by the search engines. An added bonus of this site is that any other directories that the site owner creates, your site will be listed on those sites automatically. You can think of this offer as perpetual promotion of your website.
Be sure when you submit to link directories to follow the site submission guidelines - that will ensure approval of your site within the directory.
Most of the supercars on the market such as the McLaren F1 and the Bugatti Veyron are designed in countries such as the United States or over in Europe. It seems that the Great White North doesn’t have any claim to fame when it comes to super cars.
That is until now.
A Canadian company based out of Quebec named Locus Technologies Inc. has created the first Canadian supercar – the Locus Plethore. The car’s chasis and body is completely manufactured out of carbon fiber, resulting in an extremely rigid frame. The car weighs 2500 lb and if it is paired with the 1300 hp engine, it has the same power to weight ratio as a Formula 1 race car. Talk about fast.
These cars carry a price tag of $330,000 CDN and they are limiting production to about 400 units per year. You can expect some sports celebrities to pick these up as they are cool cars at reasonable prices. With a price that low, it may even fit into your budget. Just remember the name: Locus Plethore.
