I’ve written previously about how important directories can be in making sure your website, and subsequently, your business get found. I mentioned a couple of directories then, but there are more, and there are others that I have come across since, so I will be making this page a growing list of directories that you can use to locate suitable places to submit your website to. If you have any others not in this list, feel free to mention them in the comments!
