Hey guys. Just wanted to see if I could gather up some information about directory owners. How long have you had your directory? 1 month, 1 year, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 (holy sh*t) What type is it? ( general, niche, special ) Have you been able to monetize it? Elaborate if you don't mind sharing... Which script? phpld, esyndicate, etc How is it setup? paid, free, paid featured links, paid express links How often do you maintain it? approve links, edit links, etc EDIT: What's your PR? How many directories do you manage? Thanks guys! Seems like it would be some good information to know! -emmons
What's your PR? How did you achieve this? Obviously 5 years of anything will get you noticed, unless you are a complete How many directories do you have?
Had directories for a long time. different PR different scripts.. What I am seeing lately is people who submit free are not even caring where they are submitting. Like to attribute to "Submit Services" some are good some are just Junk. Wonder if they can read.. Latest spam is mainly from law related sites (not sure what's up with them) they don't read category titles etc.. Just submit to the 1st category they can find.. Waste of their time and our time.. This could be Automated software.. Finally - If you are serious pay the little fee to make sure your link is reviewed.. (most free directory owners don't have time to review the junk they get)
Don't know.. I've not paid attention to PR since 2007... It's kinda passe now. How did I achieve what? Longevity? Because I did not build it to try to quickly bilk people out of money. We have two directories. Both have been around a while, and are updated daily. I don't sell "links". I don't pimp or sell PR. What we offer is good clean organized and well indexed / trafficked directories devoid of fluff and BS.
Most of your money made is off of paid submissions or advertising? I would assume it is hard to bank on ads unless you have a special niche directory bringing targeted traffic.
other than webmasters non would submit to directories.. Niche site owners go to seo companies who go to general directories with PR that are cheap or FREE (if they can find)
How long have you had your directory? 2 years What type is it? general Have you been able to monetize it? 2 Google ads on pages i create or on blog Which script? Esyndicate (paid) How is it setup? Free :: Express :: Featured How often do you maintain it? When i have time, mostly i review sites daily but sometimes within a week. Paid submissions get reviewed within 24 hours. What's your PR? 3 How many directories do you manage? I recently made a niche directory. So i have two directories
What kind of ADs make you money on your general directory? SEO type ads? edit: must be related to blog... duh, what is your blogging content?
