    Well,

    I have been back for a while, sort of, Just popping in reading, checkout all the news, crying about my former site directory-owners.com going missing.

    So its time for me to jump back in, So whats been keeping me away?

    Well, the life of being a student, Studying Info Comms in the Uk takes a lot of time

    Well, good to be back and now I need to plan my next move

    Maybe I shall revist my old grounds

    Missing for over 2 years, since I sold my last site and gave the account of this forum over to that owner to allow him to manage my contact for the site he took over, Directory-Owners.com - Sad to see it now has fallen.

    But its good to be back, Good times ahead i am sure, A lot has happened in the last two years, Some good, some bad when it comes to google and the web etc

    Well thats my problem I have two ideas in mind, I am not happy with how thw web directory owners forum area has gone, it was not how i planned when I first setup DO, but then had to sell and now its all gone in the wrong direction. Or I can go into a whole new area, Something to do with films and Tv - cannot say too much otherwise it would give it away but its one of those ideas you get when your sleeping:)

    So not sure, have to do some research into it all again:)

    niche directories is were the good sites have been as far as directories, at least from what I've seen
    I have one dir that I've had for years and will never sell it since it's part of a larger site, but we are getting ready to launch some niche directories related to local businesses. I think that's were the future of quality directories
    ps... your name looks familiar :)

    Probably looks more so on V7n network where I published most of my interviews back when i was fully active in the directory area. I remember it was Info Vac and Directory-Owners that only dealt with web directory owners, but now i look there are loads of different forums.

    But still, I look at these sites and I feel when vision I had when I setup DO years a go has been lost and its now just another money making resources, which is shame, I want to see quality again, interviews, free templates, quality help and advice without spam.
