I made some significant changes to to look of my directory since I first launched it a month ago. Please take a look and provide some feedback. http://directory.proud-collector.com/ Does it load quickly or slowly? Does it look appealing? Any other comments?
Site loads fast. Looks good. No page rank yet but your traffic this past month is amazing. 41,285 today on Alexa? How did you do it, dude? Do you have a blog I can read?
First, thanks. Second, I think my Alexa rank will be a little better tomorrow. I get alot of traffic from directoryspy.com, directorycritic.com, this forum and lately I've been getting alot of traffic from reddit.com and uniquedaily.com. The reason I've been getting traffic from reddit.com is because someone posted two items from my http://www.proud-collector.com/ website where I have a huge silver coin and a scary looking doll (the coin is mine the doll belongs to another member). The reason get alot of traffic from uniquedaily.com is because they posted the coin on their site for today (I hope they add the doll too ) I am also getting a good Alexa rank because the two websites share the same domain. One is a directory the other is a website for collectibles. I also added a forum in the same domain at forum.proud-collector.com for collectors to discuss collecting. There are not many members yet, but I think that if some do sign up I will get more SE exposure and more traffic and even better Alexa ranking. I want each site in the domain to attract traffic and increase PR and Alexa rank.
Very interesting. That's smart, sharing the domain. I added my site to your directory today - not sure it's shown up yet. Good luck with the site. You are the Alexa master!
Seems to be simple and user friendly which is vital for directories. So does it's intended job well I'd say.
The index page loaded quickly for me. It's clean, but perhaps a little small. I don't see any error or other problems. Good luck
