Learn to Determine if you’re Submitting to Valuable Directories
Directory submission is still a good way to build links in 2007 if you know how to choose the right ones. Is not about doing mass submissions as we used to a couple years ago, back then it was a great way to build links.
Today link building is more about getting quality related links rather than quantity. Links from Directories like dmoz.org, yahoo, business.com, etc are very valuable if we can get them. But there are still plenty of good directories out there that can be of great help to a Link Building Campaign.
I found a good video from Rand of seomoz.org giving a few tips about the subject:

From Rand of seomoz.org a great SEO video with a few tips about Directory Submission in 2007, he mentions a few aspects on the subject to have in mind when doing it:
1. Does the directory itself (the home page) rank for any of the moderately competitive terms in it’s title…
2. Do the pages inside the directory rank well for their targeted phrases…
3. Check the links to the directory – do they appear legitimate and valuable…
4. Check out mentions of the domain on the web…
5. Check the page strength – do they have links from edu and gov domains? Are they listed in places like dmoz or Wikipedia?…
