    check out dedder.com, a new site I launched today (on Halloween :eek:)

    kill websites, get easy link backs, it's beta (really beta) so there's bugs. but what's a dead site without bugs?

    there's not a lot there now, but basic functionality is there and later will come some fun user interaction and if I make money with this site -- prizes :)

    read the about page for more info

    have a scary halloween!

    Hello.

    I really don't understand the killing of a site. Even after reading the about page. It seems to be a directory site... but uses the term kill... correct?

    I still don't get the purpose of the website. Could it be explained?

    Sure, I can explain. dedder is a social bookmarking/directory site where instead of voting on the best sites, you can kill them. Once a site is killed it goes into purgatory, and it can be killed again or you can 'rev' the site to revive it. Sites that have the most kills show up on the homepage with a full link to the site. Sites that have just been killed are constantly updated on the homepage. And Mass Murderers, people that have killed the most sites, show up on the homepage.

    The site is still in beta right now so the feature set isn't as rich as it will be. Here are some plans for the future:

    • Mass Murders will get to display up to 3 links in their profile which will be linked from the homepage.
    • Site will also spotlight 'Slaughter Jockeys' people that kil sites (vote on sites that have already been killed), and 'Saints' people who have rev'd the most sites.
    • Prizes. I really want to monetize this site for the sole purpose of giving back to the people that use it. That would be cool.

    I'll be rolling out features as fast as I can. I hope everyone had an awesome Halloween. Thanks for the reviews so far!!

    Hello DevTrench.

    Ok! Makes sense... good idea! Unique idea to drive traffic not only for your site but others.

    I'll keep watching as the site develops and provide my feedback in the near future.
