what's the best directory in your opinion for bringing in visitors to your websites? Several of mine, get some traffic from DMOZ and Yahoo, but that's about it. How does it look with your websites?

Hi,

Its basically a blog/forum script, which has an inbuilt directory system.
Directory system can also be used to serve "content link" ads below the blog posts, giving more exposure to your advertisers.

Nobody buys directory links for PR anymore.
However, combining directory links with content links below blog/forum posts gives an incentive to advertisers...

You can go into phpmyadmin, click export,
Keep the "structure" checkbox ticked, remove the checkbox from "data" section,

This will create a sql file with just structure, no data.
