Like this idea, thanks for sharing - Anyone care to share what script they are using to do this with? Or is everyone using personally coded scripts?
Wouldn't that then count as a reciprocal link?
You link to them, they link to you = worthless links.
How about going one step deeper? How about a deep vertical blog network or wiki or something similar?
I think the key word is relevant reciprocal linking.
But on that note, if you are doing a general non-niche specific directory...would it be hard to show relevance since the site, by very definition, is all over the place ?

Mainly for the templates and much easier subscription payment options over the fixed payment options, not to mention the amount of ways the users can pay and you can eliminate or easily add more.
Times 10 haha in reality though check out all the features per cost compared to all the other ones, I've at least found this one to be better features for the cost.
I was thinking of doing a directory for Credit, Credit Rights, and etc. what you all think. Is that a good enough specific nitch?
And if I do this I will use esyndicat because I looked at it and it does look like the whole package is great deal and it does everything. So depending on what you all think about my niche I might give this a try tonight and see if I can implement it and then advertise away..
Thanks for all the info on directories.. I am learning a lot.
The #1 important thing to keep in mind with this is doing your pre-research, if your targeting a specific town, don't forget to check out how many businesses are actually in that town for your niche, if there are only say 300 businesses then move on because if your doing direct marketing don't count on much more then a 1% ROI.
Sure you could easily get a 2% or higher but if you've never done it before or don't have past results to go on then shoot for a 1% ROI so you don't get disapointed.
So if you need at least 10 members, send out 1000 letters, ect... Then adjust your advertising rate to support what you want to make, then double check to make sure your driving enough traffic to that site to justify the advertising cost.
I like threads like this that discuss new ideas and techniques... but I don't see this working well without having a well established directory with lots of traffic.
Don't the businesses ask for your "Rate Card" that describes the demographics of your users and how much traffic or how many page views you get?
Aren't they going to bail on you when they see they are getting no referrals or shitty conversions from your site?
If your goal is to scam "clueless" business owners... then never mind my comments.

I liked what I saw of esyndicat, but I've read on other forums that you can't make programming changes to it yourself... you have to send it to their developer team for customization and they take their sweet time.
When selling it to customers though, what sort of route do you go down? For example - "this is pr5(!!!!) and will get you to the top of search engines", or list how many views a month it gets etc?
Thats almost the same thing with any paid software solution that doesn't supply you the source code.
Your not scaming anyone, I'll get more indepth with this for you to better understand.
When you first start up your directory you obviously won't be getting any traffic to it, but how do you get advertisers with no traffic and to keep it honest.
Well what you do is set yourself a PPC budget, for instance lets say I want to spend $300 a month PPC driving targeted traffic to the website, now that could result in about 6000 unique visitors per month, this $300 is part of the initial investment, but since we don't want to wait a full month before we intice advertisers what you can do is go out to those sites which give you 6000 visitors for $10 bucks or so (There are lots of them).
Now you have your stats to use for the advertisers, this only takes a few days so you can show your advertisers that your monthly stats average 6000 unique targeted visitors each month.
Your not technically lying to them or fooling them because your actually paying for those targeted visitors with your campaign, you only send the first initial shit traffic to boost your stats and to gain your advertisers without having to wait a long time.
Now once you get your advertisers you simply take a part of there monthly subscription and you use it to re-invest in PPC, so if you get 10 advertisers making you $1000 per month you can now use $300 or even $500 of that for new PPC targeted traffic, now your stats go up and now you've got more visitors, now you can take on some more larger advertisers, and keep it going from there just re-investing what you need and pocketing the rest.
There is no fooling anyone, but be careful don't get greedy if you can only afford to pay for 6000 targeted visitors your first month don't spend the $50 to get 50,000 visitors to boost your stats because that would make it a scam because your not sustaining that much traffic.
Does that kind of clear it up.
