A good way to get links to your blog is by submitting it to directories. It will increase your chances of getting found, increase traffic to your site and potentially increase your reader base.

You can also submit your blog to DMOZ “the mother of all directories” – http://dmoz.org/ – the procedure is pretty straightforward but it could take forever for an editor to even look at your submission. But if you can get listed… it’s definitely worth the wait.
If you don’t already have a Yahoo account, sign up for one! Then you can add your RSS feed to your “My Yahoo” (and MSN, if you have one) account.
Submitting your blog to niche directories is also useful, be sure you follow their instructions and submit to the right category.
When you are ready to submit your blog, you will need your blog URL, title, and a brief description of what your blog is about. Make sure your description accurately describes your blog and also contains the keywords associated with blog.
One more thing: Unless you write several posts in a single day PING your blog after every post you make. In that case only PING once a day so you won’t be considered a spammer. Pinging lets the blog directories know that new content has been added to your blog.
The two most popular sites for pinging are:
Ping-O-Matic - http://www.pingomatic.com
Pingoat – http://www.pingoat.com

Thanks for the great list! Two comments – getting listed in a directory with a very low Google Page Rank isn’t always a good idea so you may want to avoid those. Some SEO gurus thinks linking to a website with a lower Page Rank can weaken your Page Rank.
To test a Google Page Rank, download the SEO toolbar in Firefox and it’ll give you important stats when you click on a webpage.

Hi Heidi,
Thanks for dropping by my blog and drawing my attention here. I’m sorry that I didn’t find this before writing my list of Top 100s because I think it’s a terrific resource. Glad that I know about it now!
— Thanks Heidi!
This is an excellent resource for bloggers! If you blog or you’re thinking about it, you need this list AND, you need to submit your blog to most of these blog directories! With every submission you make, you could get a link back to your site that Google will find. With Google comes spidering, indexing, ranking, PageRank, traffic & money! (-:
I am new to your website. I find this kind of information really useful. Thanks!
Heidi, you’re the best! Again you have provided the world with a very useful tool. This listing of resources enables Power Women and others to learn, contribute and expand their vision.
Most of us seek 1st page rankings on web searches; you are giving us the tools to accomplish this.
You strengthen an attitude of gratitude Heidi…HAPPY EASTER

This was very useful. Although, some sites are not valid now and it should be said that some require signing up and some even charge to submit your URL.
Thanks!

Theresa,
Thanks so much for the updates. We know that some sites are no longer valid. That’s what happens with lists like this. They become outdated. And when we did the research most were FREE to register. WE plan to relook at the list and do some research for an updated list.
Have a great day…. and thanks so much for taking time to comment.
