    Hello DP community,

    I would like to introduce my new directory -> http://www.smsweb.org

    Background:
    Please don't get a misleading feeling about the site's age. Yes, the domain is 14 years old but directory was developed very recently. We are still in the process of updating the directory with new and quality links.

    Mention worthy points
    • Currently the directory has very few submissions (165 to be precise). However all the descriptions are unique. None of the description are copy pasted and hence rules out the question of duplicate content on our site.
    • Social Media links for Featured listing - You can submit your Twitter and Facebook URL
    • Social Integration - Your link details page will have Retweet and Like buttons for social engagement

    Options to Submit
    Free - For a limited time, till we get traction, we have decided to allow free submissions. But this will not compromise the quality. We will manually review each and every site that is being submitted. All sites submitted free or paid must have unique description. Why not take just 2 minutes to write a unique content thereby increasing credibility of your domain?
    - Right now we don't have enough submissions to review and hence review will be super fast. Once the volume increases you may expect some delay. Hence if you submit right now, the review time for free listing would be less than 12 hours !
    - Submission of low quality websites with no valuable content, MFA sites and sites that are build for affiliate program will not be accepted no matter free or paid.
    - One deep link is allowed for free listing.

    Paid - Paid users enjoy good exposure in our directory. You can submit up to 3 deep links and can have 2 links for your social profiles. The best part is that the listing price is just $9.9. Most of the paid PR 6 websites charge $20 to $30 for a regular listing. This killer price is introductory price and will be raised once we get traction in the market.

    P.S: If you need new categories to be added for your website, just use the contact us form from the site or drop an e-mail to admin (at) smsweb (dot) org

    Ask over and we can discuss.
    -------------------------------------

    All I got was websites submitted without unique description. Please remember that any site without unique description will be Deleted and if you don't have time to write unique content you are wasting your time. Please make sure that you submit your sites with unique description.

    Hi Samdar,

    Good to see someone willing to inject some quality into their directory, and try and have some sort of moderation process. Well done.

    I want to make a suggestion, and I hope you take it on board. You already have the idea of making descriptions unique. What you should also do is be wary of including overly keystuffed Site Title's.

    There is at least one in your latest links that I saw... starts with "builders". I would edit titles like that, to ensure your credibility remains strong. Just a suggestion :)

    Isn't it time to remove this misleading metric from your directory? Making false claims is not the way to build any credibility...;)
