    Hi all,

    I've started a new directories search engine website.

    I would love to hear your comments.

    Thanks!

    $20 dollars a month seems a bit expensive to do what other search engines do already for free.

    Perhaps a missed something, but your idea didn't strike me a being unique. I certainly doubt that many people would be willing to pay for something that the established search engines do better and without cost.

    Hopefully I'm wrong though, good luck :)

    For the glare on the header.. I think it looks slightly odd. I would just add a light gradient going across the whole page. Also, try making the links on your header area a dark green so it's more visible.. the white is hard to read.

    $20 is a little high. Especially from a PR0 search engine. They could get a nice solid PR6 backlink for a month, which would bring in much more traffic.

    $20 is to high for now, wait till you are ranked higher even a little background picture in the white part of the page.

    well the prices are bit expensive for the directory owners i think...

    but you should promote your site to get high directories owners directories to be listed..

    As a directory owner, you site does not convince me that I should give you $20. (just being honest here)

    I'd work on the persuasion.

    Ok...
    First thank you all for your comments.

    Now let me explain the concept.
    I know $20 sounds a lot of money for a search engine that most of the time come free. But this is not the point.

    As a directory owner myself I am looking for ways to increase my traffic and my submissions.

    Now this website has just started, but soon it will be strong. So a website that index a directory on a daily basis and gives many links to the directory with different keywords can boost the directory ranking and generates much more traffic.

    I know at the moment it doesn't worth $20 a month. But it is just day 2... and I didn't market it yet. But soon with all the links building that I am working on, I believe the $20 will be small price for the value that this website will give to your directory.

    As I said I didn't start to market it, because I don't think that at this point it worth $20. I will offer for DP an introduction price and then they will be able to see if it worth it. But I am not at this stage at the moment. I am just checking the water.

    hope it makes sense :)

    Ok if your website will go strong, you may have success with it. I hope so. The site is functionnable, easy to navigate. Clean and simple design.

    You can add a logo ?
