Not really, it use to be back in the days but because if was spammed to death this strategy is outdated, in fact it can actually hurt a website. There are a few web directories which may help a site but those ones are not free. The question is what makes a good web directory? A good web directory is one that has not many hundreds external links, is old, has a good backlinks profile and it has real traffic. Search engines learn over time and they know how to detect farm links web directories and a legit directory. Answering to your question... you better find another strategies.

Yes, directory submission still effective but you should choose high DA & PA sites per better ranking, you should choose a proper category. never submit to spammy directories it will down your site's rank.

You can do directory submission for backlink purpose but they are not effective as they used to be.

There is a lot to like about directories. First it is easy for real surfers to find your link. If they ever do it is targeted traffic. The search strings are often just keywords if you own a backward sounding domain those keywords often still work. The can still be good links look how addme evolved.

I used it back in the days but now it has no value at all (as my stats show). So don't waste your time on it.
