Directory Rate - DR Update - February 08

Its that time again,

Once more, for those that are interested, the DR strength scores on Directory Rate have been updated for February.

As previously requested by several users, we have now included a nice AJAX driven search feature to help directory owners quickly and easily find their own directory in our lists, you'll find it on the home page, just type in your directories URL and select it from the list that appears.

Many thanks for everyones support with this project so far.

Congrats again to Dirjournal..

Thanks for your continuous updated list

 

and I am still killing it http://www.directoryrate.com/real-estate-directory-list.php this is almost like a PR7 celebration...

 

I am to not understand what Directory Rate is so did check top position. Why is a site with so few links within it be felt to be so important? You are to be saying this

I am to see hundreds or thousands of directories to be more stronger than this so am thinking this is fake attempt to make something bigger than it is to be real again.

What is this poo?

If this is to be so honest please be telling peoples why you are to be thinking a empty directory is to be of importance? Fools will believe this stupid stuff and is making mockery of directory industry. Your algorythm is sure not to be calculated scientifically but by baby with abacus for it is as useful as this.

I am not to even apologise to be brutal I am to sit back past week to read on facts with peoples here and many on this forums are to be causing directory industry to implode with creation of rubbish like this. Some peoples must be needing to stand up to this rubbish.

DR must surely mean Dodgy ratings?

 

Well... i must agree

We have invested a good bit in Biz-King Directory and Sleek Directory and doubt
that a "new directory" would so easily beat them....

But i like the site and i appreciate the referrals it sends us


thx

It would be interesting to see where Yahoo or DMOZ rank on the list. Just for fun...

 

Not sure which one is the new directory your talking about....

@Jaboora... just because a directory doesn't contain a thousand links doesn't mean that it is unimportant. From a directory submitters point of view the more a directory is promoted the more benefit their is for them submitting and filling up said directory.

I am not defending his algo because I don't know how it works, but having been working on my own algo for Bidilicious over the past week I can tell you that they are very complex when trying to take into account all of the small details and trying to ensure that it is fair and honest to everyone concerned. You seem to be looking at it from a single viewpoint.

@mikey... would it not be considered editorial integrity if a new directory is started and is "empty" because it is rejecting the crap?

How do you think someone like me could develop an algo that puts more emphasis on content? Apply a word count / page ratio based system.... would be interested on your thoughts on that for my project.

@malcolm.... bah, I've been sayin that to Google for years

Just playing devil's advocate is all....

PS: I made top 50, not sure how as I don't think Directory Share is at that level yet.

 

Sure to be you could not defend so called 'algorythm', they are most likely to be 'This site will go here because I am liking the owner' this site I am to like a little less'. It is to be frustrating when people say 'From a directory submittors point of view'. This is to be clear a little group of peoples trying to sadly promote themselves in some kind of elevated level they are not belonging in.

However you are to be dressing your viewpoint the fact is DR to be this is load of nonsense and peoples know it. DR strenght 9 out of 10 for being pretty template? Ooooooooooookay. This is to make Google PR look positively perfect.

 

Every time I read one of your god damn posts, the ONLY thing that honestly comes to my mind is:

 

This has to be the best thing I have read on dp in quite a while. Made me laugh out loud.

 

LoL, me too

Seriously, Jaboora you dont know jack about his algorithm you have taken one look at his site and determined for yourself that it's junk. You have done no research into the background of his project, how it started, the questions that have been asked nor the answers Phil has provided.

Coming into a thread the way you have and insulting someone with unfounded accusations just shows your lack of professionalism.

 

Ditto.

That's his signature style. Expect it whenever you see a post from him...

 

But it is to show you at least are reading my posts.

It is also the case every time I am to be reading your posts I am to think there is that knowing it all person who knows nothing. I am so sad for I am to lose wager on you, I was to be told by peoples on p.m that you would soon come to shout mouth like big man hiding behind monitor but I was to say no you were not to be such.

I am not to use foul mouth like you, this is for people of low level who play monkey for nut throwers.

Is it to be true that you are to be so good at everything that you can turn cow dung into gold?

@silkysmooth; What algorythm? Let me to explain. I am to look at all directories on this page to determine value and to find none. What is to be for dmoz? 3000 out of 10? For if it is to be some site on this DR are worthy of 9 points or more then this is to be genuine comparison.

 

Ok so your basis for stating that DR is "poo", "nonsense" and whatever else you come up with is because you compared the sites listed to dmoz? I aint even gonna bother wasting my time explaining how wrong you are. You have no idea how to research a directory and determine it's value on any criteria, period.

 

hahaha I got a real kick out of this one....

Pay attention to be the question, because to be the answer is to be the question. duh!

 

Im starting to think theres something in water around here

I guess in the end it doesn't matter what the algo is as long as it works then kudos...
though i still think sleek and king should be up their with the rest

thx
malcolm
