Default More directory sites?

I think that the last thing the world needs is more directory sites.

There's Million of them! I just searched google for web directory and I got 4,070,000,000 results!

heh that's pretty bad considering that 95% of those are just horrible. I've seen a few cool niche directories though.

Well, "directory" doesn't mean there's over 4 billion directories; it means the word "directory" appears over 4 billion times online.

I'd say there's closer to a few million directories - and only a few thousand worthwhile ones - online.

I know there aren't 4 billion directories, it just means there are alot.

I've never used a directory to find information, and I probably never will.

Default Re: More directory sites?

Nowadays, directory are used to earn profit and search engine ranking (and PageRank ofcourse). I don't think users use directories to find websites anymore. Probably at one point back 2-3 years ago, users might have -- but search engines have taken over.

You are right kenni ! No one is using the directory now-a-days. It has been completely taken by the search engines.
