Aquaponics Hydroponics Aquaculture Directory

This is my very first post! If something is not as it should have been, please let me know!

What is so special about the hydroponics aquaponics aquaculture directory ?


Links are handpicked
Between you and me I have a script that could fetch hundreds of links automatically and on a press of a button, load them in one shot to the Ponics Directory. Not my style! I will never do that! The Ponics Directory is unique because I pick links one by one! I surf the Net, hunt groups, read Google News and when I find something that is "worth" to keep, then, and only then, I add it to the Ponics Directory.

No rush to built the directory
I have no rush, no pressure and no deadline. Bear in mind that this is a non profit organization and in terms of human resources it is a little bit understaffed! Process is slow I admit it! Maybe this is the price to pay if your goal is to build the most accurate links directory about hydroponics, aquaponics and aquaculture on the Net!

The power of the cross-referenced categories
Categories are categories right! Well! Not really! Let's say that you have an aquaponics web site that :

• offers consultation services in aquaponics
• have a free electronic magazine about aquaponics
• have a forum about aquaponics
• sell aquaponics equipment

In what category would you add such a site? In the "Aquaponics" category! That's it! I don't think so! That will be the easy solution but certainly not the best option for users! ! Here is what I normally do in such a case (and it happens often):

• add it to the "Aquaponics Consultation Services" category
• add it to the " Magazines About Aquaponics" category
• add it to the "Forums On Aquaponics" category
• add it to the "Aquaponics Yellow Pages" category

As you can see, the http://directory.ponics.org is anything BUT a link farm! Google hates links farms and me too!

If you have a site that belongs to any of the categories mentioned above, I invite you to add your link in the Ponics Directory. It is free!
