with $240 (would put me on PR4 page with 20 other listings).... or get like 5-6 permanent listing reviews from lesser (and less expensive) directories. thoughts?
good choice or u kno what i would do .... get listed in the other directories of jeff which offers permanent listings and are one of the best ones in the market like http://www.kwikgoblin.com http://www.apahcinc.org/ http://www.web10.ws/ http://www.sevenseek.com/ http://www.umdum.com i submitted a featured in all because they were all permanent ... trust me a strong backlink from all ... well recommended ... i would rather not spend my money on botw and submit to the ones i posted above
One thing i don't understand about BOTW if you pay the $240 option and get rejected they keep it all so the review price depends on the choice of listing
Probably a good candidate to be listed at the Quick Buck Crew site. Well if you have a death wish i recommend to go for the year listing so your lost is less LOL
$240 for a review fee unrefundable if that is the case is a sheer waste of good money. Especially when there are so many other places you could be your good money to use.
Wouldn't waste my money on it to be honest, certainly not relying on PR, that's if you play any strength on http://www.searchenginejournal.com/goodbye-google-pagerank/5465/ btw, why do botw claim to be the oldest web directory? This one puzzles me as they were an award only site right up until August 2003. http://web.archive.org/web/20030808090312/http://www.botw.org/ also I noticed that a large amount of their content is uncannily simular to dmoz. Don't waste your coin, I don't know about QBC but certainly FOBC.
I don't get it. Why no refund? That doesn't seem to be so professional. So monthly option will minimize the loss? (unless you forget to cancel it! )
I understood BOTW as... when you pay 239.95 for the one-time fee.. then $79.95 of that 239.95 is non-refundable.. maybe I'm wrong.. Anyways... I Went ahead with: Aviva, featured: $74.95 KwikGoblin, featured: $49.95 Apahcinc, featured: $49.95 web10.ws, featured: $49.95 Total spent: $224.80 This has got to beat the pants off one permanent BOTW review!
Yup, I agree. No need to waste money on an unrefundable fee from BOTW. Its better if you spend the money on well-known directories by Jeff or Chris.
Some of them http://www.alivedirectory.com/ http://www.bigweblinks.com/ http://www.webdirectorylist.com/ http://www.blazemp.com/dir http://www.premiumdir.com/ http://www.linkverve.com/ http://www.delimitation.net/ http://www.freewebindex.com/ Also take a look at http://ask-dir.com/ http://www.redpines.org/ http://www.forplex.com/ and Biz-Giant Network http://www.biz-giant.com/home.html
to tell u the truth i dont mind paying non-refundable fee if the reasons are judgeable and the admin provides feedback why the sites weren't in .. so u can resubmit. like www.stpt.com << i got rejected once and i willl submit again when they open for general directories .... i was rejected becuz i didn't hav alexa under 50k now i do ... all i need to do is fill up my categories with quality links and i m working on tht.. botw .. just simply reject
