Of course if directories are the only things you are doing, I agree with you it aint helping your case a heck a lot.
Mert,

I thought that is where you might going (re: SEO) and that is why I posted what I did. SEO is why there is discussion after discussion about reciprocal links and paid links. Why? Because most everybody looks at a link as to what kind of juice it will it provide and how much it is going to help their own site's rankings.

Whatever happened to what is the primary purpose of a link and that being it should be to drive traffic?
