    Please review Mishre Directory and tell me how can I improve it further. I have been promoting it for two months now but it has been quite slow in taking off. What do you think I should do to improve it in terms of features, traffic, etc.? Maybe adding more mods and populate content? Let me know.

    hmmmm traffic looks good (if alexa ranking is not rigged in some way). Hmm maybe people are shying away from the n/a PR yet still paid directory. hmmm.

    Looks pretty nice.

    Where have you been advertising?

    Have you started a thread in the Announcement section here? Let people know that you are about and what your directory is about.

    I wouldn't do anything in terms of features.
    Add a deep link mod many submitters like the option of deep links. And keep promoting.

    traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic

    and then after that you need to get ranked high in SEs

    because that means more traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic traffic

    As a buyer what would certainly keep me off is 33 followed external links and a nofollow link to PhpLinkDirectory.

    A good step to a successful directory is less external links/sponsored links and proper credits.

    - I hope you would work on it. :)

    Hello...

    Good looking template ...:)

    The first thing i did notice is all the sitewides...
    while your site is new you may want to consider doing sponsered categories rather then sitewides as it could affect serps.
    While i personally dont care about sitewides (when i submit) others do and could mean less submittions as well as problems with google down the road..

    I myself will have to sooner or later do this and whether i like it or not i see no other way around the issue at this time.

    regardless wish you success

    thx

    Hi from an outsiders view ( a customer looking at your site type view),

    It presents well and looks clean neat which is good,

    the left panel up the top in my eyes is not put to its best use, it may be better with say a snippet box refering to snippets from your articles to gain my attention and or a welcome special offer typer banner.

    As it stands for me as a customer all the top left is doing is diverting my $ and thoughts to other directories, these when clicked open in the same window not a seperate one, so what i am saying is your prime location to catch and hold me on your site is dedicated to other directories. ( which is fine but you asked about your directory and these could be placed quite well below where my eye first hits )

    Secondly the traffic hits logo, i am sure these are well and good for directory owners but i very much doubt they hold much or any value to the comon person looking to place an add, to them its no more than mumbo jumbo ( call me wrong its just my view ) and therefore just wondering if it could be moved down or to perhaps to the submit page, this space could be used in far greater ways to keep my attention on your site.

    In general you have about 30 seconds if your lucky as people will quickly look asses and if they do not like what they or you can hold them you have lost them ( and you provided the next link right in the best position for them to follow )

    In your post you also did not really state how you had promted the site, so you may need to post what you have done so the more learnerd can help.

    Other than life is short and if the light is not burning at the end of the tunnel, walk down and lite the thing yourself.Try a few things slowly and monitor the outcome and step a little outside of the square if need be.

    From my very limited knowledge, i see Zorg and Beacon Directories as 2 to keep an eye on and if possible use these directories to list in if you have not done so ( but there are other good ones ),hope it turns out all good.

    I think you should implement Deep links mod on your directory. BTW - I have just submited my web directory.

    :)
