Over a decade of editorial link building, built on transparency and measurable results.
DirectoryInclusion was founded by a group of SEO practitioners who noticed that most directory submission services were purely automated — generating low-quality listings that search engines quickly devalued.
Our model is different. Every submission goes through a category-relevance check, a domain quality screen and a manual review before it is placed. We work with businesses, agencies and independent website owners who want sustainable link diversity, not short-term volume.
Over the past twelve years we have placed listings for sites in more than 40 countries across every major industry vertical, from local service businesses to multinational SaaS platforms.
We refuse directories that accept any site without review, regardless of their metrics.
Clients receive live dashboards showing each placement, its status and authority data.
We do not use GSA, XRumer or equivalent software at any stage of our process.
A four-stage process that puts editorial relevance at every checkpoint.
We review your domain, existing backlink profile and category fit before recommending directories.
Our database of 4,200+ directories is filtered to the most relevant and authoritative targets.
Every listing is submitted by a human team member who selects the correct category and writes original descriptions.
You receive a detailed monthly report tracking acceptance status and new domains gained.
