One of my sites got hit with the exact match domain algo change in google.

one of my sites got hit with the exact match domain algo change in google.  I was wondering if it would be trouble or beneficial to add about 10 directory links in the the highest page rank directories in the seomoz directory list.  It looks like i only have about 17 root domains linking to my site so far that are natural links and not directory links.  i have no directory links as of yet.  Will this help or does it spell trouble getting this many directory links in a few months?

Thanks mozzers!

If you focus on getting links from high quality, relevant directories, that will not hurt you.

If the directory accepts every link that is submitted to them, that's when you are going to start running into trouble.
