    If you are serious about asking "what (with an "H") is a link"...then I would strongly suggest not to even bother trying to run a directory. Seriously.

    But if you are going to do this anyway...

    As far as accepting links now....YES!!! Your directory has hundreds of empty categories. Either open free submission for awhile or, better yet, work a few hour every day for a few weeks and populate the directory yourself (hope you have ALOT of time to devote to this site).

    Speaking of devoting some time, did you or your friend spend a couple of days creating all those categories, or did you use one of the category dumps floating around. If you used one of those cat dumps, I would definitely urge you to start over and make your own category structure to avoid any dupe penalties in Google (way too many people use those).

    Also, drop the template you are using. Pay someone for a unique design or, at the very least, pay someone to create a unique logo for your site. Even for free submission, I wouldn't submit to a site that had this in the header: Midnight Blu Template for PHPLD.
