How to create a good directory?

Hi,

I am creating a directory by myself. And I am curious how to make it better?
Is is ok to add articles, content I mean, into my directory?
Are there any guidelines?

Thank you

 

Yes read the sticky at the top of this category

And Read It All

 

No there are no guidelines! but you need to be dedicated to your work doing!

Make Much Backlinks!

Try to Purchase Signatures Links! @ Webmaster Forums

Give a professional look (theme) to your directory so anyone can rely on it and make a good business.

 

O, what is profesional look???

 

You need unique template which looks professional like www.arisedirectory.com etc .

It is a must to add content, and only unique content!

 

Well, it depends on how much time you can devote to reviewing each and every submitted link. You have to spend a lot of time on the design and promotion of your site as well.

 

On top if it - be sincere, honest and transparent in this business. Sum it up - develop your credibility!

 

Take inspiration from www.alivedirectory.com , www.forplex.com, www.avivadirectory.com , www.directorydump.com , www.romow.com and www.ewebpages.com

 

So it is good idea, to use directory along with blog?

 

pour your life and soul into it.
