    good site! you might want to add more content as most categories are empty. You can offer free submissions so that you can fillup.

    I like the template design. Overall, the design and layout give a very good impression.

    nice directory, though i don't suggest adsense on directories, but then your adsense looks more like your site's part rather than ads! nice work.
    anyways, i like the template:D

    not too many people will submit reciprocal urls, so i guess a complete free directory would be better to start with!

    I think there is too much blue for me and I would take the adsense away, but that is totally up to you. Just work hard on promoting it and you will succeed!

    Hi,

    Not a bad directory, I also like the domain name.

    As for the categories being empty these will fill in time if you promote well.

    The one thing I don’t like is the google ads, seems like many agree.

    Thanks Brian

    I think your directory looks great. And since you directory is free then I don't see any problem putting adsense. Adsense is blended in so not blocking the categories.

    now thats a good comment :p

    well yes its a free directory thats why i had to put adsense!
    Adsense is in a different color background so can be judged easily!

    Hay Talal bro ... Welcome to DP :)

    Nice design there ...

    As I see you are going with a "Free Directory" so I don't really have any objection with AdSense as others pointed out but if you intend to change your mind towards Paid Option, do start with removing it.

    Secondly, as your directory is new, try to focus on promoting and add some relevant content.

    You might consider removing your footer links. I don't really like it as some of them have such a long text and not really related to directory.

    Yes, being a brand new directory, I would remove those footer links, unless people have already paid for them. It is going to hurt your ability to get pagerank distributed through your site.

    With regard to paypal, maybe you can find someone that you can barter (and trust) that will let you use their paypal account, and then send you the money.
