    Well whatever you are asking im sure its worth it, as ive been watching whos been buying up links and also been checking sites to compare were they are located and such. It would seem your really getting good Strong links pointing to your site which is great. I wish you the best of luck but dont think you will need it as you have many high Pr sites pointing to your directory. I will defentitly consider adding my sites very soon.

    Thank you

    One of my must-to-be-listed directories, definitely worth the bucks!

    Serious and ambitious businessman will always be rewarded. I like the AAA, Alive, Aviva, and Ask!

    Thanks for the compliments
    Besides the expected PR of 6 or 7 Ask Directory offers unique quality features:

    - Original unique features verified with copyscape no duplicated content problem (only 3-5 directories doing this);
    - Links inside the reviews, more natural and you can chose the craziest anchor text without ruining my directory integrity. (never seen this on a PHPLD powered directory);
    - Large thumbshots to help site discovery (only seen this on Alexa)
    - New submissions always get top placement, normally directories are ordered by PR;
    - Categories are pre-loaded with authoritative sites for better cross-referencing;
    - No adsense or any other form of contextual advertising the listings get all the clicks;
    - No sitewide link selling;
    - Very deep backlink structure, I am expecting even very deep categories to get good PR;
    - And other small quality features.

    I like the AAA Alive, Aviva, Ask Very Cool..

    I like very much this directory and have a featured listing there, the backlinks are very strong and will go, we hope to pr6 on next PR update, also the directory integrity is very high quality, for the quality offered the price in my opinion is fair

    But moreover the guy who runs this directory is a 'winner' so it follows given time the directory will be a 'winner too'

    You get out of business what you put in:)

    Congrats! That's fabulous. I'm glad I've got a half dozen sites submitted.

    Toolbar PR and real PR are completely different. It may be a long time before Google does a PR update, but with 4,500 backlinks there's definitely a decent amount of PR there. Add to that the fact that most of this year's PR updates have been wonky to say the least, and you're much better off relying on backlinks or page strength than relying on PR.

    Onlinedude, thanks for the comments.

    Ok, update information Ask now as 68,325 Alexa and 5,460 backlinks yahoo and I just closed a deal for 1 year several PR6 Sitewide links. I am aiming to PR7 :).

    PR is almost useless these days, you should also look at directory integrity and differentiation as much more valuable assets in directories than PR.

    Yes Ask as i mentioned above your site is going in the right direction their is NO doubt about that.
    Both my Biz-king and Sleek are very close to your sites stats as im sure your aware.

    I believe we are all aiming for High PRs as we know that the PR chasers will follow and pay a handsome price for inclusion on sites.
    Building inner page catagory strenght or its PR is the key and what will reel them in.

    Now just for GP i wouldnt get to gun-ho and/or hopes up for a PR7 just yet as thier is no sence in anticipating anything when google is the one in charge.
    It takes alot of time and money to reach PR7,if you look at Alives stats and you will see he has worked his butt off and his stats are truelly incredible.
    then take epitrope and his sites PR and you will see that to get PR7 will be very tough and may take time , $$$ and patience.

    I have NO DOUBT that ASK Business Directory will make it on top, just dont EVER expect anything from google as it is a wicked Beast and does what it wants is all im saying.

    Much success to you..........

    thx

    PR7 is an long-term objective, I am more busy getting PR on inside pages that what really matters much more than on the homepage. By my calculations Ask should be already PR6 on homepage.
