    I would like to draw your attention to our directory http://www.romow.com/,
    which is one of the strongest directories among relatively new directories.

    We offer regular listing for $15 (permanent), and featured listing for $45 (annual payment). Which I think is very competitive rate if you look at the pricing of other *good* directories.

    This pricing will remain until the end of this month, and will increase afterwards, and I don't feel wrong about the price increase as I strongly believe in the value of our directory listings. :)

    Brief status report of our directory:
    • Number of Google-indexed pages: 2,430
    • Number of backlinks (yahoo site explorer): 83,843
    • iwebtool's PageRank prediction: 7 (6.5) with 68.6% accuracy
    • SEOmoz's Page Strength: it used to be betn 4.5 to 5.0, but now reports 3.5 due to some hiccup of their tool; and most of sites lost PS 1 or 1.5 due to this bug.

    Besides directory strength, one uniqueness of our directory is that we constantly develop original blog content relevant to directory categories, which in turn will deliver more visitor traffic to our directory listings. Currently we maintain ten blogs with distinct themes, each of which is integrated with a relevant directory category.

    In case you are interested, as of this writing, our directory ranks at 1st among qualifying contestants for directory contest (http://www.directorycontest.com).
    http://www.google.com/search?q=directorycontest.com

    (depending on data centers you use, you may see slightly different results)

    The directory uses phpLD, same as yours. :) The rss mixer was hand-coded based on MagpieRSS.

    Your site was approved. Thanks,

    Can you offer deals for multiple submissions? Lets say 3-5 listings get any sort of discount? Let me know, thanks.

    Sure, we can.
    If you submit four paid listings, the fifth (regular) listing can be offered for free.
    You can PM the url after you submit.

    Thanks,

    Ok I'm really close to justifying the cash because I've seen you've definately put money and time into some impressive backlinks.

    Do you allow subdomains and or deep links? Might not be today but maybe after Thanksgiving if you accept subdomains.

    Thanks.

    When it states;

    Are you talking about the mainpage being PR3 or the page with the actual link? I have a general directory I was considering linking.

    Sorry if the word is not clear. It means the page where the reciprocal link is placed needs to be PR3 or higher.
