How Does a Markets Directory Work?

How Well Does the Markets Directory Work?

One thing we all know is that people expect a lot from their paid advertising.  What with social media offering a great way to get your message out there, why would you put your trust in an online directory, and most importantly, what will listing in the Markets Directory actually do for my business?

I know you want exceptional results instantly with little or no effort at incredibly low cost – but that’s not achievable in the real world realistically.  So here’s what we can offer.

I thought the best way to demonstrate this is to list your market stall in real time and let you see for yourself over time how many visitors and how much traffic you get to your site.  But that is too slow, so the next best thing is to reach out and explain that inbound links to your site, from authoritative, on-topic sites (like the Markets Directory) offer impressive value from search engines.

Popular Niche Sites suit Directories

How can I explain this better?  Well, if you have more and more links to your site it appears to the search engines (like Google and Yahoo and Bing) that your site is popular and carries some weight in its’ particular niche, because it is offering something that is not available elsewhere (ie your unique handmade products).  So stick to what you do best and don’t try to be everything to everyone, as your website will get lost in the cloud of mediocrity.

Instead, be on topic, niche specific and, introducing another important concept, fresh.  The search engines like fresh, relevant content, so they can pass on the latest ideas and research and products available.  Sure, they have all the historical stuff from the past decade of the internet, but what really rewards searchers is fresh, unique content.  We want to be up to date and in the moment.

The Australian Markets Directory

...clearly shows its effectiveness in its’ dominance of online search in the results for keywords like Markets Directory, Australian Markets, Guide to Local Markets and Find My Weekend Markets.  Search for those terms yourself and see where the directory ranks.  This is a good indicator of imposing page ranking and trust and authority in the eyes of the search engines.
