This post contains affiliate links. If you should make a purchase from any of the advertisers I may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. I appreciate your support. Affiliate links are clearly marked for your information. Thank you.
The directory is below this brief article
There are thousands of websites where you can submit your blogs or your website to get more exposure.
The more your name is out there, the better chances you have to the massive amount of traffic on the internet.
Think of websites like a community. You have rows of homes and business and you have traffic going down the various roads.
When you create a website it is like you bought a new home in a subdivision that is at the end of a road.
The likelihood of anyone coming to see you is very low.
You may have the best home in the neighborhood but no one sees it because why would they drive down a dead-end road.
Make Your Website Visible
You need to make your website visible to the world. To work night and day trusting Google to place you in front of their unquenchable desire for more paid advertisers is naive.
Can you rank high and get traffic? Sure, you can, and it will likely take you a very, very long time.
And, here is the special part, they can change their rules or ban your website from their results anytime they want to.
After jumping through hoops and doing everything to follow their undefined list of how they determine your rank, you may still find yourself lost in the back pages of their results.
Or, you could be number one, but show up on page two because they choose to place a full page of paid ads in front of yours.
How cool is that?

Take Responsibility For Your Traffic
So, take responsibility for your traffic and do the work not only to become SEO friendly so that search engines will index your website.
And, over time, you may possibly generate some traffic, but always be submitting your website and blogs to directories, search engines, and social media.
The more sources of traffic you have the better.
And the less dependant you are on the giant large search engines you are, the more likely you are to maintain your traffic and maintain your own ideas and creativity with the kind of website you want to have.
Eventually, you will find that as an affiliate marketer, you will be far better off paying for traffic so long as your website is monetized so the costs are justified and you have the value, content, and offers that people are looking for.
How Will You Know Until You Test It?
But you really won’t know this until you have had a substantial amount of traffic click on your website.
Two or three opinions mean very little if anything at all.
Everyone has their opinions and at best, maybe 3% – 5% of your total traffic will engage, make a purchase, or become loyal followers or subscribers.
Which brings me back to paid traffic.
If you have been at this a while and have what you feel is a decent website that offers value through services or products, in my opinion, you need to test it out in the real world and see the results.
Just as a new restaurant may have a test run to see if they are ready to open up to the public, tweak any flaws or issues that they did not know about, and get feedback, we need that as well with a new website or business.
The problem with just getting only five or six people to give you feedback is that I have found them to be so extremely different that the information was useless in most cases.
It is not enough data to determine what you should change or add to make your site better.
The internet can be a very selfish place as people get on there for what they want and are often in a hurry.
What we often think people want or need may not actually be the case. What we have to offer may need to be adjusted or changed altogether.
Meeting needs through services and products is what you can provide within your niche or business and you are competing with a world market in many cases.
Invest In Yourself
Set aside some money and pay for a substantial amount of traffic and make sure you have analytics in place to track viewer behavior on your site.
This is as critical as any other aspect of your business. If you do not know what people are looking at and also ignoring on your site, you will be clueless and have no idea where your focus needs to be or which sources of advertising are bringing the desired results.

I love article directories. Believe it or not but people still use them. I don’t even use them for the backlink, I use them for targeted traffic because thousands of people still use them to look for blogs. Of course traffic will be minuscule but it is still targeted and over the course of a few years it will add up to lots of traffic. Blogarama is my favorite on this list. Thanks for sharing!
Brandon,
Thank you for your comments. I agree that directories are a valuable tool and they really do provide a good service to the public.
