Many people try to judge their web sites growth or success simply by measuring the amount of traffic that their web site receives. Whilst this is not a bad indicator in itself, it can be deceiving and you need to understand the difference in types of traffic so that you are aware of the overall goal, in terms of traffic, for your web site

Beware of directories that solicit you for "upgraded listings." Unless a directory is widely used in your field, your premium ad won't help, but the link itself will help boost your PageRank and hence your search engine ranking. Marginal directories come and go very quickly, making it hard to keep up. Don't try to be exhaustive here.
