Reccommened directory categories?

[Brennan]

I'm looking for categories I can use for my new bid directory: bidupdir.com (http://bidupdir.com)

Please suggest your categories here, thanks :)

main cats should be bidding directories, web directories, seo, advertising and mortgages.
That should cover about 90 percent of what gets submitted ;)

The categories I currently have are:
Automotive
Blogs
Computers
Directories
Entertainment
Forums
Hosting
Internet
Shopping
Webmaster

What audience are you trying to catch?

If you seek "general info" then thats your start just build your lower categories...

Exactly! If all you want to do is target DP members as your submitters, then go for what you have. If you want to grow it out, think about some categories that people actually search for.

It's probably more of a webmaster directory, but I'm not going to say only webmaster links. Thanks guys :)

Don't forget travel, shopping and finance.

Thanks :), Also other than categories any tips or things I should do to it?

You should try and list a few popular sub-categories on the home page also, with the categories. That might look good. The page has few things on it. Might not give it a look of a big and popular directory.
