I just got a new client who wants me to build an informational site for their non-profit organization. I know that the rules differ slightly for non-profits and wanted to know what directories provide free submission for non-profits?

Also, if you have any other things I should know about marketing non-profit, please by all means share your wisdom.


Sincerely,

Try www.zeal.com and the Yahoo Directory for non-commercial (which may be different from non-profit) sites.

Otherwise, DMOZ is always free.

It's possible to be listed in GoGuides, JoeAnt and Gimpsy for free (although you may have to become an editor in some of them to bypass listing fees).

If you actually use any of those directories listed above to browse for more directories, you will find a ton of them.

I just got this in a newsletter I'm subscribed to. I've only skimmed it, but it sounded like something you might need.
Sadly, there doesn't seem to be any information on directories. But still, it may be helpful.

Zeal will list non-profit/information sites, they're pretty quick at accepting and rejecting site. BUT you need to pass a test which is pretty easy if you skim the guidelines.

Acquiring inbound links to non-profit sites is generally a simple process compared to commercial sites. Simply contact industry and fan sites related to the non-profit and ask for a link.

Also, don't overlook regional directories in the city/state the non-profit is based in.

And other related nonprofit sites.

Thank you very much for the advice.

I would also look in DMOZ for niche directories.
