Bid for position web directories, also known as ‘bidding directories’, are a new concept in building links for your website. These directories allow website owners to buy affordable text links and bid for position to the top of a category or even the homepage of the directory. This is
a new concept in web directories, and is currently causing some noise in the web directory world. Most bid for position web directories display the top 10 or 20 highest bids on the homepage of the directory. This is where the maximum benefit is gained. A link from the homepage will typically carry
“more” PageRank, and be seen by more people then from a page within one of the directory’s category. That is the main reason to bid for a better position.

In these bidding directories, there is a list of those with the highest bids that rank better. A Text link and a description is placed for each entry. Bid for position web directories allow people to set their listing bid amount. Listings are displayed with the highest bid at the top, and the other listings follow in descending order. Bid for position directories tend to either display listings in categories, such as Shopping, Business, etc, or in alphabetical categories.

Some of the bidding directories could also have other features that increase the directory traffic and keep visitors to return to the directory. For instance URLLogs.com allows webmasters to use and download phplinkbid templates on their directory. Others may have other features, like interesting articles, etc.

On URLLogs.com, you can buy links to promote your website on a related category. You don’t have to buy expensive links if you’re not looking for massive exposure. But, if you are looking for good exposure and get links from the highest pagerank pages, then you can bid high amount of money to get better placement.
