    Congrats Jeff, Umdum is a great directory. Good luck with your empire of directories :)

    You might want to consider offering package deals submissions. One price to get listed in your directory network.

    CONGRATS JEFF!

    #1) He may as well ask for Jeff's social insurance # too :)

    #2) It's a good directory for sure I went there a while ago. Heck I would of even submitted but I couldn't figure out how, the Submit brings you to a pge with no clear submission so I gave up and submited to the rest of Jeff's about a week ago.

    #3) You should streamline submission and if it doesn't already ensure it has deeplinks :D.

    Either way congrats Jeff, I'm sure you'll be happy with this acquisition.

    Regards,
    Rob

    UMDUM was latent potential lying in Loren's hand

    It was a pity to see it sit in the dumps with not much visible promotion happening

    And well it good news to see that Jeff has now taken over ownership

    Best of luck Jeff and congrats on the awesome buy

    Very well said. After the initial launch and link juice it received, it dwindled from a PR6 to PR4 in 1 update and was left literally untouched.

    Jeff will restore it's strength and develop it to within the ranks of aviva for sure.

    LOL, a lot of fluff for sure and bullshit to cut through, this includes the promotions here on Digital Point, this includes the "Quick Buck Crew" crap, in my opinion you guys have your own morals of who the crooks are in the directory business, it is always the other guy who is the con man not us.

    Jeff, will existing listings in Umdum remain grandfathered in or are you planning to delist existing listings or start moving "permanent/lifetime" listings to an annual payment model?

    Congratulations Jeff on the acquisition.

    I predict that on the directory industry will be a loot of Merger & Acquisition activity in the future.

    Interesting the price for non-profit is 50% of regular submissions first time I see this normally is free.
