    Is it just me or is no one getting new submission to their bidding directories anymore?
    I have two bidding directories which haven't has a submission in a while already.

    The only surprise here to me is that anyone at all is still submitting to bidding directories.

    My guess is they're just not paying attention to what's been going on. Or they're in utter denial.

    I've got over 30k backlinks on www.bidfortop.com, and I get a submission per day (4$ value usually). So people don't doubt about my next PR :)

    I think it all depends on the certain directory.

    why bidding directories are really dumb

    Yet another negative nay-sayer about bid directories :rolleyes: I read your post and its pretty much a misrepresentation of what a bid directory is all about. People pay for a position, not for the link, in a bid directory. And one does not necessarily have to bid high on the main page, you can do that in the categories. Its differs only slightly from the conventional-type directories.
