    Thank you everyone for your replies. Will be working on the article sometime this week.

    Will share the link when I get it up.

    I have mine, momapproved.org
    it's PR3 and rank page1 on every major search engine for keyword "family friendly directory". Presently down due to DNS change.

    Have a look.

    Thanks

    Have started writing the article and have been going through your sites and have a couple of questions and one observation...

    www.linklister.co.uk - No TOS, do you accept non-UK sites?

    www.whenwegetthere.com - nice site, I was going to list you as mostly family friendly, but two of your nightclub categories could quickly become most family unfriendly when they get some listings

    whenwedine.com paid or free? Submission form is for both sites?

    choice, dynn and rod - c’mon dudes, did you think I’d just take your word for it? :p

    PhpLD sites - search for sex and see what you get, very strange, lots of hits, yet I couldn’t even find letter combinations that might have matched like “years experience...” seems like a bug in the search, seems anything with only 3 letters is funky

    Anyone not mentioned - thank you, I'll be glad to share your site with others as family friendly. Those of you with tobacco, gambling, etc will be identified as mostly family-friendly; that way it will be left for anyone coming to my site to decide how strict they wish to be.

    If any of you would like the link to something other than your URL, please let me know either here or by PM. Please note, to keep things fair no one will be given link text with the words "Family Friendly" unless that is truly part of your site's name.

    For the most part, I'm going to use descriptions you submitted to other directories so the descriptions will focus on the things you wish to promote about your sites. I would be glad once I post the article to change any of your descriptions to something else if you would prefer I do so.

    Thank you for sharing your sites and hopefully my efforts will bring you some new submissions.

    Keywords shorter than 4 charcaters are ignored - (MySQL server settings I believe). Increasing the length of the search term will improve results.

    I don't think that's true about the MySQL server settings. You can write a script that would search just one letter, it just isn't a good idea.
