I Stand in Support of the Directory Business and its Owners

Discussion in 'Directories' started by acuman, Sep 7, 2007.

  1. #1
    After all what is going on and the posts that I read regarding the loss in serps for many directories, I have to say I still stand in support of the directory business and its owners.

    Why?
    Is it because I know these guys?
    Nope, I know them as much as I know anyone here…a few posts, money exchanging with strangers, and reading posts.

    Is it because I have a $bet saying these “banned” directories will be back by Sunday?
    Nope, but it would be nice to win the bet.
    If I lose the bet will I pay this DP stranger? Yup!

    Is it because I am a webmaster?
    Nope, I don’t even know html (just learned how to make a new paragraph with html and excited about it :))

    Is it because I love toolbar PR?
    Nope. I hardly understand it. It doesn’t mean much to me, or my customers/visitors. In fact I don’t even have it on my directory.

    I learned so much from so many DP members, I have had strangers across the globe go into my administrative panel and do some work for me. Some even refused to accept payment! I post the biggest noobie questions and get answers I can learn from. I used to see strangers in support of each others directories, praise them, wish them luck, and offering help. I see a lot less of this during this time of need and uncertainty!

    So I just want to say 1 more thing to all directory owners affected by this “serps change”.

    “I see you standing, standing on your own. It's such a lonely place for you to be. If you need a shoulder or if you need a friend, I'll be here standing until the bitter end. No one needs the sorrow, no one needs the pain. I hate to see you walking out there in the rain.
    Don't ever leave me. Say you'll always be there. All I ever wanted was for you to know that I care.”

    Good luck to all directory owners affected or not affected by this and keep on doing what you love!

    BTW: first person who posts the name of that song in quotes get’s $5 via Paypal :) as a gift (small) for thanking DP for all it's help.

    Please donate it to the Diabetes Fund, so as to maybe help some of the forum go'ers here on DP get their MUCH needed medication(s).
    They tend to hallucinating and fabricating imaginary groups of people and just things in general when they are not receiving proper medications. ;)

    Whatever you donate, I will match!

    Thx
    Rob

    Cool post Acuman, thanks.
    Nice to see the spirit of the forum lives on, even in 'directories' section

    Now, who the heck are 'guns and roses'? Or is it a sideways comment on directory owners?

    edit: post above posted while i was writing, I guess I need to watch the video...

    Thanks for your positive comments and we might need a few more like this.

    I still believe there is nothing to worry about, but apparently other think otherwise. We shall see in the near future that all this was just "heresy"

    That's Lovely :)
    We are proud of you! All i can say is "Thank You" and "Here is some greenies" from a concerned directory owner. ;)

    BTW, The SERPS are temporary. They will be back to normal soon. However this revealed many faces among the bunch who are like "mice who runs away when the ship is about to drown". Unfortunately for them....they were revealed....and the ship never drowned! Ha ha ha
