Wordpress Plugin for a business directory?

anyone know of a solid wordpress plugin for a directory that would rival phpld or something similar?

 

I don't think wordpress is designed for being a directory. Better to use one of the scripts

 

Checkout the script I am using on http://b2bpak.com/

 

NO it very difficult to find any thing similar in wordpress to PHPld directory

 

Wordpress plugin?

 

i don't think so that wordpress make its plug-in

 

Try these:
http://www.wpdirectorypro.com/
http://www.forgani.com/tools/opendirectorylinks/
http://www.seanbluestone.com/wp-link-directory

I did not test them yet

 

Business Directory is a great way to increase the SEO value for site
Backup your database.
Download Business Directory from http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/business-directory/ and unzip it.

 

do u want WordPress directory scripts or plugin

 

two look promising.... forgani.com and wpdirectorypro... the other has been hacked. thanks for your help.

 

my shopping directory is based on wordpress

 

I just finished a Wordpress Business Directory Plugin that uses CityGrid Places API and allows you to deploy a directory for any city and any business categories. You can also monetize using advertising. You can find in the Wordpress Plugin Directory by searching for CityGrid.

 

Looks like wpdirectorypro is history and the forgani.com demo uses a no follow tag

 

http://businessdirectoryplugin.com is not search engine friendly

 

That would be kind of difficult if you ask me 0_o

 

Here's one I'm using. It's quite new so has some small issues but works well out of the box.
To give you an idea here's my 'beta' site: http://bizuk.co.uk/

 

The title points to an internal page which, I am led to understand, is not search engine friendly or am I wrong?

 

phpLD has a wordpress plugin in beta. Expect release early next year.

 

It's semantics, but:
- search engine friendly refers to whether the URLs are crawlable and indexable, etc. Algorithms are more sophisticated these days, but the concensus is that mod_rewrite should be employed to rewrite URLs to an easy crawl and navigation format.
- SEO friendly refers to whether the OBLs are static and direct. OBLs also shouldn't use nofollow in listings since that detracts from the whole point of recommending a site in the first place. If you look at the apple listing, next to website they have a static, direct OBL. However they use rel=nofollow, this is what makes it not SEO friendly.

However, I'm guessing you could change all of these things in the settings.

 

Sorry which apple listing? Many say that the no follow tag only negates the passing of PR value and/or that no follw links are an important component of a ranking profile?
