    Hi everyone,
    This thread is for both directory owners and websites submitters. I request directory owners to post your directories here in this thread so that directory submitters like me can easily submit sites to your directories and then contact you regarding approvals.

    There are many submitters present here who get paid for each and every approved listing and it feels so bad when directory owners do not accept the sites.

    I submit around 80-100 regular websites every month to around 60 directories each. what I want is the profit of all if us. we will submit to your directories then we'll message you regarding approvals. you'll then approve the sites after checking them.

    The real benefit of this thread will be if any directory is not giving approvals after approaching them, we can actually notify other fellow members to not to waste time in submitting to the particular directory.

    Post your directories here and make this the "Fastest approving directory list" of all time :)

    I'm assuming you are talking about free directories. Quite a few of these directories get many hundreds of submissions per day. Some get over one thousand. I just don't see any financial incentive for these directory owners, which are not charging a submission fee in the first place, to donate even more of their time to personally communicate with submitters when a free submission has been approved.

    While I understand such personal notifications would be helpful for bulk submitters, the reality is that the burden of the listing confirmations should be that of the organization that submits - not the directory owners/editors that provide free listings.

    Paid directory submission services offer greater profit potential, more personal service, less headaches to confirm listings and ultimately much stronger listings for clients. You may want to consider adding that to your available services if it is not offered yet.

    So what's in it for the directory owner - seems this is more for your benefit than anything else. ;)

    I just started this thread because I felt that directory owners need sites submitted in their directory as they always announce their directories here at dp and ask people to submit sites.
    I agree that the whole burden is of submitters not of dirs owners.

    Atleast they can be ensured that the sites being submitted to their dirs are from real people..not by bots :)

    I think you'll find that the better directories are not just sitting around waiting for submissions; you'll find their editors building categories and adding sites on their own. Yet to see a useful resource built from user submitted content. ;)

    I cant find more better or extraordinary directories as I have been submitting sites for over an year now. I just want people to post their new or decent directories here :)
