Picking a directory to list in

[Ron10]

When i decide if a paid directory is worth listing in, do i look at the page where my link will be placed and judge it based on how many incoming links that page has, or looking at the page rank, or looking at the mozrank? Or is it just the overall rank of the home page of the directory?  I notice that page rank gets less and less the deeper you go into a directory until the pages are unranked.  Does that mean that the page is not crawled by google, or is considered an irrelevant page and would not be worth paying for a link there? Also, how many pages deep into the directory is too deep to mess with?  Also what are some good directories that offer deep links?   I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts....

Thanks in advance!

Seeing if the page where your link will be placed is indexed by Google is a good thing to check, as well as the PageRank of that page.  It's probably not worth paying for a listing if you're going to end up on some deep listing with no PageRank.

Probably the best directories out there are DMOZ, Yahoo, and BOTW.  Those as well as any niche specific directories and business directories. Beyond that it's probably not worth spending money or time on.
