    Hi!
    My directories now also have paid submission. For only $1.00 you'll be listed in 24 hours in all 3 directories. It usually takes weeks to get listed due to the high number of sites which are waiting (around 1,000).
    If anyone is interested to test the paid submission I will offer him a second one for free ;)

    You can't offer PayPal for payment? I think that will be a big deterrent for your site. Of course, I will go through the hassle of using a different service because we're in communication through the forum and I told you I would test. However, I imagine many others would not bother for a $1 charge... Thought I'd offer the feedback in an effort to help.

    You're right. Unfortunately I can't offer PayPal.

    Just some friendly advice.. work on link building and getting all your directory pages indexed for all of them before asking people to hand over their hard earned dosh, all be it $1 (its the point of it)

    I'm only human. The process takes time. And people pay only if they want to pay. Google and MSN are visiting daily my directories.
    And speaking of hard earned dosh, I guess I deserve $1.00 from time to time as I accept hundreds of free websites. And this takes my time and time means money.

    I have submitted two. The process seems to work fine once you get an account setup. The PayPal issue is unfortunate. Even once you have an account with StormPay, you have to enter a verification code every time you go to order. :-/ BTW, you mentioned the "buy one, get one free" offer for now. How would I go about claiming the free two for the two submitted thus far?

    No one said building up a free directory was easy (been there done that) Im simply saying you have to give people a reason to pay for submission. Having only your index page indexed in big G and very few backlinks isnt much of a reason.
