I've put a note for people to submit to my new and free directory of mobile/wap sites (www.milkmore.com) but nobody is submitting. Why is that? Am I announcing this in the wrong forum? Are there not many people with mobile sites out there? Help!
Go to the vilesilencer forum as well as the other directory listers and offer your directory and im sure you will get a few. Also this section of DP would help.... http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=65 thx malcolm
You're the first person that I know with a .mobi directory sites. I will create one next month for the same purpose. There are not many mobi sites at the moment, but I'm sure those with a .mobi site would submit to your directory without question. Good Luck with your directory!!!
I will say, I think your site is great mate. Looks fantastic, promoting a nice new focus, and obv quality stick at your guns mate and just work hard. Good stuff I have to say, I will PM you soon as I work in SEO/SEM and will chip in to help you as it's one of the few things I see that im real impressed with Jay
Actually thiers another member here (DP) Msolution that has a mod very similar added on his directory.. I as well like this site and wish you much success thx malcolm
very nice design, now what you need is... a decent page rank and some advertising, add your directory in all possible lists, and build a lot of links!, then from the next G update you will be set.. good luck.
Why is PR a nessesity? People will still submit regardless of the sites PR just because of its uniqueness laterz malcolm
infortunately malcolm you and i know that its not necessary but go explain this to the submitters, ask every directory owner, he will tell you PR is driving the directories industry when i tell someone or a seo client, hey i have some quality directories, do you know whats their first response is? good good but what is their pr ?
Alot of people are too lazy to register to submit a website, Also some people might not want to give their mobile number as its required to register. That could be some of the issues nice directory through!
I think maybe because your site didn't look like directory.. I am also lazy to learn how to submit site in your directory because its different like other..
Thanks for all the comments. The problem was that initially we didn't have a registration requirement for sites so people submitted sites and we had way of getting back to those people or differentiating between sites that we were adding or that came from the outside. When I submitted my site to other directories I saw that I always had to give my details, so I figured this was the norm. Plus we didn't want people spamming the directory and then I have to spend hours cleaning up the database. This registration is still something we are working on, the phone number, you can put a bogus one it will still work, but maybe I should take that field out all together. The homepage has a nice design, but I think the directory needs to be displayed more prominently on the HP. As for PR, really I am clueless. Everybody is talking about it. How do I get a high PR?
Also, any other directory forums I should look into other than vilesilencer? Any other DP-like forums (should I even bother...if this is the biggest..)?
I note that your site is not .mobi ready, just ran a test on it. I also have an interest in .mobi directories and sites, but this is waiting till well into next year, Good luck
one of the reasons people are not submitting is that REGISTERATION required, then another thing is that a mobile number is a MUST to enter, people are more conceered about their privacy and will not register becuase of that option.
