Bidding Directories now have no excuses for lack of content!

    Many complaints about bid directories come from lack of content.

    To counter this several steps were taken :

    - The longer description mod was enabled
    - People added blogs and other content to their site
    - People added categories rather than the letter based navigation
    - The new phplinkbid release is set to include sub-categories for a better user experience, and also a more structured navigation/content path.

    But due to several requests from many, as a mod creater for phpLB I have created a new mod. The mod will be great in adding original content to bid directories and expanding their site.

    The mod is an article mod, and will be released in a few days for FREE.

    This is not an announcement, this is a post hunting for feedback and any additional features bid directory owners are looking for:)

    Mike

    yes! that's what i was looking for!

    I told ya some 4 months back, that our bidding directories need this mod badly, but no one really listened to me! but then am really happy to see this mod in action! looking foreword to use this mod.

    Content is important for every directory, and bidding directories were probably the most less content directories, now it's a foreword move!:)
    looking foreword to see this mod,

    regards,
    Uttoransen,

    Mikey,
    As you pretty much know, I am new to the concept of owning bidding directories but try my darn hardest to make them great.

    With the Mods you have and the new release of PHPLB expected soon I am tempted to go for the whole package on that and start another Bidding Directory. Especially considering some of the domains I have recently purchased.

    Keep up the good work mate;)

    Mike, I really admire your strength and effort to prove what you stand for. I would say best of luck, but luck isn't really a big factor here.
    Just keep up the good work and I am sure Zorg will be back very soon.
