    It was never my intention to shock you, just my 'at first glance' conclusion..

    For as far as the 'misspelled', parked, or "default" domains I was referring to, your site has a significant resemblance to cocaacola.com and even more so with hentaidb.com to give you a clarified impression of what I meant. A few images and / or a different color scheme would make quite a difference, I'm sure you can at least witness some resemblance in the sites I've mentioned compared your directory in its current state.

    Thank you a lot for your time and input Luxuria, though the functionalities and nature of the websites you have provided have no relevance to my website, i agree that appearance wise the resemblance is unfortunately high. I will be improving all aspects of the website in the near future, and certainly the design and appearance of my website is on top of my priorities.

    It certainly needs a few sites.

    But why in descriptions do you allow "A website......" Surely if it were other than a website you would not be listing it.

    Editing is the clue to a good directory, colours etc are very much secondary in my view. Crap editing with rubbish sites, poor and full of hype descriptions mean that users don't want to use it.

    Ah.. it doesnt look like a parked domain page at all. It looks good. Although as some one else already pointed out, I would have used some stronger colors and a better font.

    Anonymously, you absolutely right, crap editing with rubbish sites, degrades the value of a directory.

    You may wonder why do i still accept some websites with subjective self promoting description?

    The reasons are:
    - I have nine criteria for evaluating a website. If a website is doing well in all the other 8 criteria and doing bad with the website description, i still accept the site.
    - The internal surformation rank for a bad description site will be lower and the website will appear less to users once surformation is populated with a bigger number of websites, therefore not hurting the overall quality of my directory.

    Thank you for your comment, it was very helpful

    hi again ,
    i just check your sites with w3c standard and it showed about 300 errors on your site.
    please check thought it.
    a site with script should be error free.

    I do actually like the colour scheme. I think it is very easy to the eye and makes it look smart and professional. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.:rolleyes:
