Blog Directories – BlogCatalog.com

Writing by Blog Marketing Journal on Thursday, October 11, 2007 Comments Off

I signed up with blog catalog for some of my blogs. I’ve been testing and looking at a few different directories so I can pass along this information to my readers.

If I was using a scale of 1-10 to rate blog directories, Blog Catalog would get at least a 9. One blog kept getting denied due to the reviewer not finding my link back to their directory. Their phone number was on the contact page, so I called, expecting the usual message, “Most questions can be answered through our FAQ on our website”, or “leave a message and we will respond someday” like you get from many directories and websites.

Instead, they answered the phone, asked for the url to the blog in question, saw the link, apologized, and approved the blog right there on the phone. It took all of 5 minutes.

That alone gets them points from me. This day and age, good customer service is rare and those few who provide it stand out from the crowd.

Add to that, the traffic I get from my blogs being listed there is great and I’m not even participating much in the community there yet. I expect it will only get better.

I’m going to continue to explore different blog directories, blog communities, and social bookmarking sites and I’m open to suggestions for those you would like to see reviewed here,
