I'm conducting a survey and asking to see what other questioner I should include to the next survey and list them here and when I make another survey I will try to include them. Here is the current survey. http://www.thebestdirectories.com/survey/ I think having a survey will help us in some ways of determining on how we do things and ways of changing things that can make our directories successful. Let me know what you think of it in general. Thanks!
Thanks Pete Remind me to give you a green rep for that comment. TBD is still at it's early crawling stage and I don't really consider it as a "directory" I would like it to be known as a resource and news archives for directories and it's owners and surfers and hope someday I would be able to implement what I have visualize. So far the survey's are: Where you satisfy with the results? yes no ------- Which of this authoritative Directories are your favorite? Aviva Directory Alive Directory V7N Should I include more sites here? ------------------- Which of the directory scripts your using? Any directory scripts that I should include? ---------------------- Which of this following new Bid Directories will Rank good on the next PR update. I miss a lot of other link bid sites....post it here and I will include them. ------------------- What is your Gender? Male Female I'm guessing this is about right -------------- I would like to include more questioner, if you have any please post theme here and I will update the list. The survey will be there for along time and we can look at it from time to time to see what the results are in the months of time. I will also make some of them in the future. You may request a survey for your own directory and point them out at TBD ask me for details.
You forgot "other" You might get lots more interesting information with fewer multiple choice questions.
Which of this authoritative Directories are your favorite? - they're not my directories, and I don't use them for finding info so no fave there. Submit and move on. Which of the directory scripts your using? - yes you need other, I'm currently using wsnlinks (subject to change) and it's not on your list. Which of this following new Bid Directories will Rank good on the next PR update. - I don't do PR appraisals on directories. either they look good and they're worth taking a few minutes to submit to or they're not. I don't pay for links either so how about a "I don't do Bid Directories" option? but it's good to have a system to rank directories and when requested I always fill out the form at DirectoryCritic. The problem there is sites often ask when they accept the submission (when I don't have the info to answer the questions) rather than when my site is approved.
You made a strong point there SarahK and will take notes of it. I thought that I added WSNlinks, but it appears that I haven't. Will added it now. thanks for your input
I second this This question forced me to select one when I wasn't familiar with any of them So your results may end up being skewed towards the first answer. Great idea btw!
Hi Jesse --I agree with SarahK regarding directoryscripts. There are many other scripts I suppose. Also -- Its really tough to choose from Alive and Aviva -- --But I had to choose one -( won't tell ya which I did) Which of this following new Bid Directories will Rank good on the next PR update. I didn't answer this question though --as I have reservations about ............... Bottomline--very good feature --and wish you all the best.
I'll second srahk's comments as well..but..carry it a step further...I think the question should be multiple choice. Some of us use more than one script. I for instance use IndexU, WSN, ESyndicat,phpLynx and one or two others. There is life past phpLD! Good job on the site and questionnaire though! tom
