    Surely you jest. They may update the directory search DB, but I don't see any evidence that the actual directory has been updated for over a year now - around Feb. 2006.

    ahh, the joys of reading the unknowledgeable web directory owner who doesn't really know what a spammy post looks like.

    no worries grasshoppa... maybe in time. :grin:

    There is alot of questions arising on Alive Directory regarding its pr drop from pr7 to pt6. So this means alive is already poluler among peoples and this is big +++++ :D

    Nobody knows the real reason. Maybe alive will go back to PR7 on the next PR update.

    It has a lot of backlinks but the question is how many new readers and returning visitors does it get a day? Think that was the difference between matt cutts/blog and alive :)

    I think its useless to discus alive directory is PR 6 or 7.

    What I believe is he is a directory I must submit to. :)

    Toolbar PR is relative and not an absolute number.

    If (actual) PR of the top PR sites go up substantially, toolbar PR of low (actual) PR sites would go down.

    I got in long time ago, when listings were permanent :D
    I can smell PR8 coming soon. But I do not know if that is good or bad. Remember what happened with bluefind.com. I had $200 worth of listings in that dir :mad:

    Looks like nobody has the answer, except Google. A lot of sites were demoted in the last PR update. I doubt it means they did anything wrong. It may mean that Google is assigning a lower value to the types of PR being done by Alive, which is heavily promoted.

    Google simply devalued PR ...

    MSN and DMOZ both dropped to PR8. :)

    To me it looks like Google may have devalued OLD links. Some of my oldest sites took a hit this time, while newer sites stayed the same or improved. :eek:
