How will you know which directories added your site?

I think presently Yahoo is better option as it displays the accurate nubmer of links. Whereas Google purposely does not report accurate link data with their link: command.

With yahoo 's Linkdomain:url.com command you can get all the pages that link to any page hosted at the domain url.com

Google counts backlinks whenever they are found, though it never shows all of them. But backlinks contribute to placement.


Just keep getting your backlinks and monitor your SERPs for how well you are doing. Its SERPs bring you traffic not the PR and PR means absolutely nothing in the final analysis.
