directorydump didn't open up until a little after mid month feb (around 16/17th) since then about a dozen paid submissions, both regular and featured. I'll be expecting a PR hike next turn around basing what I have invested in it right now. Everything made from it went right back into it plus a lot more from my own pockets. Those who've submitted are no doubt going to get their return on the investment, and the directory should grow a lot stronger in time.
Submission4U Directory receives 100 free submission per day and 20+ paid submissions per month. Personally, paid directory depends one its PR and PS, free one depends one how many people see you accept free submission
Express are £11.75 or approx $23, I'll let you do the maths but remember not all of that is profit you've got to pay for servers etc and that assumes they are all acceptable which is seldom the case.
Thats a nice question, I will be watching it. I have noticed that aviva and alivedirectory are getting around 10-15 submissions per day ( visit their latest links section and click details on each) - Am i right ?
That's not entirely correct, as the what's new page is only showing the number of submissions accepted not the total submissions made, they may only accept 10% of the total submissions.
I get 2 or 3 a week (paid) and an additional 5-10 reciprical on top of that, although most recipricals don't get accepted due to the quality of the back link page(s). If your looking at a free directory however you can probably expect 100+ a week...
My Pr6 directories get around 2 paid submissions a day. My Pr5 directories get around 2 submissions as well.
