Quick gut-check: are you tracking how many directories you’ve submitted to… or how many of them are actually helping?
Big difference 🔍
Most businesses obsess over submission counts. The smarter move is scoring each directory on things like:
🎯 Is it relevant to your niche?
🎯 Is it well-moderated (not spammy)?
🎯 Can you actually update your listing when things change?
🎯 Will your team realistically keep up with it?
Skip that scoring step and you end up with duplicate profiles, outdated info, and zero trust signal 😅
Launch in small waves, clean up before you expand, repeat 🔁
