Sept. 13, 2012 - PRLog -- Powerful Links Directory qualifies all websites prior to being listed.

For Consumers:
As an online ecommerce directory, Powerful Links Directory has an extensive list of websites separated into categories, such as automotive, electronics, health and beauty, etc.  They currently have hundreds of sites, and are looking to make a significant push for growth.  In the past two years they’ve grown to include over one hundred categories and subcategories.  In case you can’t find what you’re looking for in the standard categories, the miscellaneous category alone has 30 subcategories, including everything from electronic cigarettes to celebrity autographs.  They even have a section in their directory for other directories, just in case you still can’t find that elusive website.  Plus, although they’re mainly a resource for ecommerce websites, they have a separate category for information sites.  Many of these contain tips on how to effectively market a website through social media and SEO techniques.

The proclaimed goal of Powerful Links is not to be another online directory that clogs its site with useless links.  Each submitted link is reviewed for accuracy and to make sure the links actually function, and they’re always on the lookout for broken links to fix or weed out so as not to waste a shopper’s time.

For Website Owners:

Why backlinks are important:
As the website explains, backlinks are links from one site to another which, ideally, are related or relevant to each other in some way.  This is a common and effective SEO tool, and part of Google’s ranking algorithm that is used to determine your position on the search engine’s results.  Powerful Links Directory provides at least two listings, per qualified website, in relevant sections of their directory.  This boosts each website’s Google ranking, while directly exposing targeted shoppers on the directory to the site’s listing.

Recent Google updates:

The recent  changes with the search engines algorithms have made it harder to make money with an ecommerce website, as search engines are cracking down on websites that use spamdexing and other schemes designed to trick Google into giving them higher rankings.  Powerful Links explains that the updates find and punish rewritten or auto-generated content - giving higher rankings only to those websites with unique written content.

Website owners are going to have to put more and more effort into their creations to achieve those desired rankings and bring in the traffic.  Powerful Links is lending a helping hand to those hit hard by the new updates by providing them with a legitimate SEO strategy and helpful information that costs them nothing and requires little effort.
