Various Free and paid business directories exist on the web offering businesses a way to get better results from the internet. Most business directories that offer a free entry, make it subject to conditions or limit the information you can add to the site. The one real benefit of placing adverts in these business directories is getting nofollow back links to your website.
Many of these indexes do not offer back links that have value or are considered link farms by Google. Fact is if anyone offers to add your details to 1000 search engines, they are not doing you any favours, because most of those backlinks will have no Google juice.
A back link from an industry related website adds real authority to your website, A backlink from a web site considered an authority in your industry by Google has even more value. Think international partnering and exchanging links with companies that are not strictly your competition. Plumbing suppliers get plumbers to link to you. Plumbers get electricians, plumbing suppliers and other related businesses to link with you.
An internet business directory is only as good as the information offered. An online phonebook rarely competes with a directory offering business profiles, product information and value to the user of the site.
