    Of course they can. I list my sites in my bidding directory at $1, so they go to the bottom.

    its not wrong in adding your own sites, but in bidding directories, keeping the bids in the top for your own sites would be wrong.
    As that would not be called as correct business, fake bids!

    I dont think chris and mike are doing that :)

    Of course you must add your own sites but just try not to fall foul of bad business practice

    yes you can certainly do it if you don't try to put your bid at the top.

    I think it is alright to do it at the minimum bid.

    I do that on my Bidding Web Directory for a couple of my sites, but they all have a minimum bid of 1. So it doesn't really matter. As long as you don't make your self the leader.

    It is right to put your sites in your directory. Also you get extra back link as well.

    Good way to populate your new directory..

    Why not add ? Why not take advantage of "own" directory ;)

    With the minimum bid in place and there own sites in the bottom of all , i don't think its wrong to put your own links in your own site. Atleast the owner has the right to list his own site for free but for the better interest of other bidders they bid the minimum amount for their own links and add them.

    i am in favor of this!~!!

    I do that for all my directories. I add my sites in my bid directory at minimum bid and add my links as regular in my general directories.
