Directories contain fewer resources than a database search engine. Many directories rate, annotate or categorize the selected resources. Directories increase the probability of recovery of relevant results.

Well in my view it's not that important now a days with changing algorithms and new ways of getting traffic it has become less important.

Directory submission may work for b2c websites but not for b2b websites because competition is more in b2b compared to b2c.

Keywords are tough to rank so directory submission may not be helpful to get huge traffic or to build quality backlinks.

People are focusing more on quality content, blogging, guest posting, social bookmarking, press releases, community postings, infographics, video marketing, presentations etc. which gives them quality traffic.

Web Directory helps you to get backlinks, if you post your website in a paid one instead of posting for free.

Directories are a great way to get those much-need one-way links and increase your link popularity. They'll boost keyword relevancy for your website. By incorporating keywords properly in your directory submissions, you'll improve the relevancy of your site for those keywords.
