What are Directories?
Directories are collections of businesses or websites stored in a database organized by category. Online catalogs aggregate submissions manually or through data providers. Being listed in these directories can improve local SEO signals and generate referral traffic.
Examples of Directories include general business listings such as Yellow Pages, specialized directories for specific professions, and sector-specific portals.
