Seems that everyone nowadays has set up a directory.One thing I wanted to know is how to you make a directory going. Who will submit to a directory with Pr0 and who will link to it?
Announce the directory in the Solicitation Section on DP and also on other forums and interested people will submit their sites . Develop the PR for the directory by submitting to other dirs / purchasing links / link exchanges and other stuff . If the dir is well promoted then submissions will flow in . Also try to get listed in directories list like Vilesilencer or even DirectoryCritic . << Every dir had PR0 initially ..lol.. they worked there way to achieve good PRs and they managed submissions >>
Not true, i've linked to it, and my PR0 has been link. It's a matter of quality of the sites that i'm after and not PR's and i'm sure there are many others that share the same with me on this.
I do not know your Directory objectives but maybe you should consider developing a niche Directory say for Mauritius like one of the links in your sigs The general Directory market is flooded with Directories so maybe it is best to focus on a narrow vertical market where you may be able to create a niche sector with potential for growth If you are going to launch a PR0 Directory from scratch then it will need to be very exceptional and individual with a custom built template that will cost you money, if you want to have an individual and unique Directory Building an established Directory is not for the 'faint hearted' and requires time, money and lots of efffort to support and market Do not worry about submittals they are everywhere, waiting to submit, but make sure you are providing the product that they will want to pay to submit to! Think Quality, think service, think support, think creativity, think marketing, think functionality etc etc Then if you are going to enter the market, make sure that the Directory meets the highest expectations of others in the sector
