    Hi guys i just created a directory and i was wondering if its OK to submit URLS manually by myself.
    I mean i dont think the webmasters would get mad, and if they do they can just e-mail me requesting to get their site off. Is that legal ??

    The directory is for an expecific type of music/culture. And im requesting visitors to submit their websites, their blog, their "myspace" :D So i dont think there would be a problem if i submit some URLS by myself, what you guys think?

    I think there's no problem. Dmoz also has links that aren't requested from the webmasters. :rolleyes:

    I have just started a niche dir and it's pretty difficult to get content first up. So I am adding links manually every day. Im up to about 200 now. Definately do it, it's going to benefit the user in the long run and thats good for your site.

    :)

    Imagine the delight you would feel when you check your stats and you are now receiving a nice flow of traffic from directories that you didn't even know about - heck, I wish EVERY new directory included my sites - that would rock
