WHY SUBMIT TO THE BOTW DIRECTORY?

Best of the Web

The number and quality of links pointing to your website / webpage are a major factor in determining how well your site / page ranks in the search engines. These are called backlinks.

One of the oldest and most established premium web directories is called Best of the Web (often shortened to BOTW). It allows you to get a listing in their directory for a small fee.

I can say from experience, that Google values a link to your site from them very highly. I have submitted many of my clients’ websites to the Best of the Web Directory, and after their listing has been approved and Google has indexed and updated its cache, I have seen an improvement in search engine rankings.
