What is a directory going to do if it does not sell links? Directory’s primary source of income is basically text link and I do not think that they will get affected by Google PageRank Downfall. Although we will not know how will Google determine the passing of Google PageRank through Directory. There is a new standards in the Directory Rating and if you are interested to purchase some good links from a reliable directory, Directory Rate is the place to go.
Submiting to directory is part of the process of doing Search Enging Marketing, and you do not want to submit yourself into a directory that closes down the next month, all money spent will worth nothing. Another alternative is Free Directory, although Google pay little to no attention to this type of directory as they consider this as mostly spam and there is not people moderating and controlling the links. I believe PageRank is not passed through such directory. Free is always good, but I stop doing it long time ago.
