I do check the directories manually a few days after submitting. Most directories send an approval email, but some don't. I've never received a decline email, and since several weeks have passed since some of the submissions, I guess they are being declined without response.

I really wish I would get an email if declined just so I can have some feedback as to why. I'm always willing to make changes etc. This feature is built into most directory scripts I've seen and I don't know why someone wouldn't send a decline email.

That's what makes me wonder if some directory owners do it on pourpose to increase backlinks to their site. Lots of blog makers probably don't check their recips. Just wondering if this is a strategy some directory owners use.

If there are, which ones are they?
I don't want to name any sites, but I have submitted several blogs to a few big directories and waited weeks with no email responses accepted or declined. Checked those sites and see regular updates, so I know they are being updated, so I assume mine were declined.
