    I see you've decided to go w/ a directory ;)

    The design is nice and clean. What I would do is make the whole bottom area of your site dark grey (it's grey then white at the moment)

    The text you have there is good for seo ;) (did you place <h1> tags on them? Would help w/ the seo even better). Even a simple nice logo icon on the left or right of the text would work out great.

    I have done this at prestigedealer.com re the seo friendly links, but it's so long ago that I can't remember. I think it's part of the script you are using PHPLD, somewhere in the admin section. If you have any trouble check out the PHPLD forum.

    There is a mod you can get for about $30 from boby which will do an import, from somewhere, details at phpld forum.

    Or you can manually add them yourself, which is what I did. It's slow freight though, then submit your directory to info.vilesilencer list and you will get people adding links. To populate the directory initially you can run a promo and keep it free for as long as it takes to fill it.

    Use the directory solicitation section of DP.

    Make sure your terms specify what links you will accept though or you could end up with some crap.

    Hope this helps.

    yapp it helped but if I'll Import links from other directories the mod will copy description too and that will be "duplicate content", and this mod maybe works for general directories but my webdir is North Carolina related. thanks anyway ill add some links manually

    nice design - looks very web 2.0

    A logo would really pull it together.
