    Yeah I would have to agree. A good example of a niche directory.

    Thanks for mentioning my ZD. Great to know you think its sexy :D. Perhaps you should expand on the alive/aviva comments though.

    Good to see you mentioned directoryDump for its original mods. Rob has another directory which is looking very smooth on the mod side lately.

    I would have to agree about romow, gii and dirjournal. Nice to see you picked up on the hard work done by CReed on his ewebpages.

    Nice to see Bruce got a mention, Authority Directory is a great value directory.

    CJD is surely on my list too, its the only one of its kind.

    Good point on Madmouse. I like directories where the unique template matches the domain. A little like my old night-directory.com does. I have another that I think I showed you last week where the domain and the theme match nicely :)

    Yeah, City Journalist, Authority Directory and Bizfive are really worth to be mentioned. Anything else?


    Someone gave me a red rep saying "payment through paypal?" - What does that mean? Did he mean that those who are on my list paid me for this? ...BS.

    I have quite a few favorites - Many more than ten and a lot of them have already been mentioned. I wil try to mention some that have not already been listed.

    In no particular order
    Aviva - design and Jeff is top notch
    Zorg-Directory - design
    Romow - new design
    JoeAnt - like the domain and strong directory
    Abilogic - strong directory
    Wow Directory - the category structure intrigues me
    Zyas - love the promo video
    City Journalist - very unique
    Skaffe - editorial integrity
    dirjournal - design

    Like I said I have quite a few favorites and these are just a few. I tried to list some that had not already been mentioned and I excluded my absolute favorite one ;)

    I gotta say Mikey's Zorg Directory does look the sexiest, the category logo's look fantastic.

    On closer look, though, Mikey - you might want to update your footer 'C2007' ;)

    Sray, I like your list - I think I'm going to buy listings in those that I'm not already listed on (which, correct me if I'm wrong - is all of them:p)

    I'm quite surprised Mr C hasn't come along: - "Oh, look at that, these directory owners are being paid for their time - Larry, pass me the wet PR fish..." SlapSlapSlapSlapSlap "...PR0".

    Thanks. Thats the look I wanted to achieve. I'm glad people are starting to take notice :). Good job I have cool guys like Zeb and Rob who have helped all of this become possible!

    Yeah. I should get some php date in there to save me the hardship of updating it once a year :D

    Fish? SpiderMan, hes gone up in the world. Nuclear fusion acts fast and causes ultimate destruction. Google files missiles at us directory owners!

    Nice topic

    My vote would go to

    Joeant.com - traffic & impact
    botw.org- what an impact
    haabaa.com - well developed
    abilogic.com - well developed
    v7n.com - well developed
    dmoz.org - top directory anywhere
    reals.com - second in class
    ired.com - top of class
    directory.phplinkbid.com - traffic
    yahoo.com - one day i'll be able to list there, top equal to dmoz.org
