What blog directories are the best?

[czarina]

Bloggers, let's post here what blog directories and other blog resources we get the best and most traffic from. I think it would be a good guide for all of us who make our living off blog traffic.
Let me start by mentioning the one I've gotten the most traffic from:
Fleshbot.com
(I'm not associated with them at all, I've just gotten great traffic from them).

Please do not spam this thread. Let's keep it professional as a good resource for us all. Thanks.

Fleshbot isn't really a blog directory, but they do send mad traffic when they like you.

I like to use the pinging sites plus I use my handy dandy digg digger to pump up stuff there.

hahahahahahahahahaha is likely the best place for mainstream.

Keep in mind google likes to "find" you. If you are listed on every blog directory in the world it will hurt more than help.

Organic links from relevant sites mean much more. That said see sig

probably when you said "hahahahahahahahahaha is likely the best place for mainstream." you meant "t-e-c-h-n-o-r-a-t-i is likely the best place for mainstream.".... am I wrong?

YARGH! That be correct. No idea why that'd be a haha word though.

Hey czarina. I hate to hijack your thread, but could you please hit me up on ICQ. Thanks

It all depends on the directory, some directories sort blogs on incoming hits, if you don't send them a hit you will likely receive less traffic then when you send a hit. So 1 person that does send hits will find a certain blog directory cool, but the other person that doesn't send hits will only get a couple hits and will dislike the directory.

Other blog directories have toplist in the sidebar, the story is the same, if you are in the toplist you will receive much more traffic then if your blog isn't in the toplist.

The source of the traffic is also important, if you got a linklist where you can submit blogs then your blog will receive less quality freesite traffic. It may be more, but the quality of the traffic (how it converts) is likely less then the traffic from a blog directory that only has blog directory, blog and search engine traffic.
