    Hey,

    So, We are coming to the end of another year. Boy its been busy for some.

    But how has the year been for you? Has your directory flourished or has it failed?

    To you, what has it meant this year in the directory sector?

    Happy new year guys

    -Dan

    Happy New Year to you too Dan

    2006 slow start, solid last 6 months looking for more growth in 2007

    The directory market is getting tougher & tougher and quality will be main 2007 differentiator in the sector.

    Don't be surprised if the QBC's crash out of the market in 2007:)

    Dramatic increase, since at the start of 2006 I didn't have a directory. Since my first directory (march 19), the increase was enormous. In all terms.

    I have learned alot this year.

    Happy new year to all! I can say that it was a worthy 1/100 of my life.

    Yup, Good to se people are wanting to stick with it.

    As people have said above. Its getting harder but they do not want to leave the game. I think this can only be good.

    2006 has been good for directory owners lets hope 2007 is better

    2006 started slow for my put picked up a lot in the last 4ish months. I redesigned my phpLD2.0 site for a brand new look, then i upgraded to phpLD3.6 about a month later and totally revamped my directory again. I then introduced sitewide paid links - which brought in quite a bit of revenue and then moved from a free directory to a paid directory which has also been really rather successful. Needless to say the best year from my directory thus far. Lets hope 2007 is just as good :)

    List My Niche has grown steadily all year and I've had a lot of fun. Made a few dollars, spent a few dollars. What else could I ask for?

    I started my first directory Indianwebdirectory.info on August and it has been a tremendous growth for me and now I have more than 3

    and I hope to start a directory every month from now onwards

    and also since Directory market is getting tougher and Tougher

    It s the Quality and some speciality that make one directory different form others

    Just started my directory a couple weeks so I can't say much. So far it has been a great experience and I am looking forward to it all paying off in 2007.
