When I was registered my other website http://www.makegoldwow.net/ to many directories I was wondering if having my own directory would be a good idea. So I decided to make my own directory. I was looking for a nice directory script and I found http://www.phplinkdirectory.com which seems to be the script that most directory owners use. It seemed to be too complicated to start with so I looked more and found out http://www.phplinkbid.com/ which is a script for a bid directory. It seemed to be perfect to start with.
What is a bid directory? It is a paid directory where webmasters post their sites and after that they can bid on them. They higher they bid the better position in the bid directory their website gets.
So I started working on my own directory and now that I’m finished here’s the result http://www.topbiddirectory.net/. I already have a few paying customers and that’s a sign it might not be so bad. I made my own categories and my own category descriptions.
Now the hard part begins. Promoting the directory, getting more paying customers, increasing the value of the directory and the traffic.
All in all I must say I’m very excited about this new project of mine. Hopefully http://www.topbiddirectory.net/ will be succesful.
