Watch List #2 - Info Vilesilencer Directory Owners Forum and Free Directory List

Dan · #1 02-28-2007, 10:48 PM

The Watchlist is for directories that are currently temporarily unavailable, unuseable, unfriendly but we believe can be fixed easily and if they are we will return them to the list. This also allows us to keep an eye on the directories, and contact their owners if necessary to make the required changes.

Directories that are down/offline temporarily
Sites that are down longer than 2 weeks (or during a pending update) will be removed from the directory list

http://www.directmylink.com/ - I'm getting the error "Domain exists in directory", when I haven't submitted it before. But the site was sooo slow, I'm not going to test it with multiple urls just to confirm my suspicion that it's some kind of error, I'm just noting it here. I'm starting to think this is mainly a script issue, because it's happened before with other directories.

I've posted the links below in the list suggestions thread, but they may be more watch-list material so I'll repeat them here as well:

Down when I visited:
http://www.aussiewebdirectory.com/

Other errors:
http://www.theseolinks.com/ - CGI error
http://www.webfriendlydir.com/ - CGI error
http://link-beam.com/ - 404s for categories, add link, all over in fact.

http://www.tag911.com/ gives errors after submission, so it's not clear whether it's getting through or not.

http://www.atlastraveldirectory.com/ - the error message "Couldn't connect to Database on" is showing today.

I just wanted to let you know they've just added my directory. Maybe it is ok afterall ... jayde.com/13626889-weblinksdirectory.html

- Link Beam and Aussie were removed.
- Atlas Travel appears to have changed hands, or is no longer the same directory structure that it was. I think it's time to remove them.
- The SEO Links and Webfriendlydir seem to be working ok. If people can't find these directories it is because they are in the confirmation required niche as they require verfirication via email before you are listed.

- Good call. Thanks for that. The next problem that presents itself is their "SEO friendliness" tag...

They do have a crawlable link from the category page, but not via the site title... It's a tough one because Jayde has been a part of the list since it's inception.
