We ran a similar thread in March, April & May All were very popular and many new interesting posts brought in lots of news about directories How is the Directory Market shaping up this month Whats new this month whats hot We are half way through the month and I have seen lots of hot news But post it here so everyone knows :- Thanks
whats hot is arizona as its 110 here today Now as for this month... im not sure yet as its not done yet thx malcolm
I think regional directories may be getting popular again. I especially like this one: http://www.bigindallas.com/
Not sure if it counts as directory news but I made my first technical changes to BestDirs.com. I installed a couple of mods to add value to listings. All sites are now listed from 1 click away from the homepage using the A-Z listing mod and the sitemap mod should help with pagerank distribution too. So all listings are now given 3 permanent links for the same price.
A few days ago I've launched PagePower , a new and pretty unique concept and today I've launched my first directory based on phpLynx offering up to 10 deeplinks! - e--Ad Directory
Sure thats news and its great to see Directory Owners working hard and diligently to improve the services and options that they offer listed Review Clients Well Done
www.daredirectory.com is my latest directory, launched late last month. Its a new concept where listing sort by value, but it is not a bid directory Other than, I revamped www.dirten.com, previously a directory showcase site, now I change it to a blog on directory design. Already featured two interview with balkanboy and zeb
My next plan is to make a unique directory. Active Web Directory would be the directory with no tables, no adsense, no sitewide links, no illegals, no gamblings. Thinking more Nos.
This month -- - New great designs coming up - the best example www.dirjournal.com , daredirectory.com etc - Directory blogs are becoming popular.. - QBC site becomes live For me, New design for www.bqtm.com
they lied to me woke up before heading to my meeting they said it was going to be 110, on the 101 looking in the car reader it said 112, I know its going to be 110 today too, just hoping its that hot sat. on the lake.
I don't like Arizona. It's not the heat, but its dry climate. I was in Ca for sometime, but Phoenix is way too dry for me. Here in FL, it gets close to 100 also + the humidity! As for my new thing, the project of creating DP trusted owners list is taking lots of my time. I'll be able to finish it soon though.
for me the saddest and hottest news is -- by Web Directory being completely hacked -( I had no up-to-date- backup) -- and my one week long struggle of minimum 18 hrs per day to put it live again with all listings intact (from Google cache). I have also restored original PR of each and every category -- the reward has been $27 revenue since I put it on 9th Hacker defeated and my directory now is Running-n-Kicking with 400 additional (new) categories added.
I released www.zorg-links.com its heavy promotion allowed it to sell many link spots, even though it had PR0 Mike
i have launched harmu.com this month, but then it is not all that hot! though it just managed to get a bit hot, with a few se*y submission that i refunded and removed
My Neat Directory is new this week and this month. It is not indexed yet. I'll soon put custom made design and will bring high PR links for it.
-> www.dirjournal.com with its exclusive design seems to be Hot this month. -> QBC site from ASK is an other hoti of the month.
