DMOZ http://www.dmoz.com
Cost: free - may take some time.
Inclusion: usually takes a few weeks
to a month.
Comments: DMOZ is the source of the Google Directory, and is the
most important directory on the web. This makes it very difficult to get in. Make
sure your site follows the directory guidelines to a "T". If it has
been over one month and you want to know the status of your submission go to Open
Directory Public Forum where volunteer members will kindly inform you. YAHOO!
http://dir.yahoo.com
Cost:
$299 per year for business, free for personal.
Inclusion: can take up to 7
business days.
Comments: While it is the most expensive link on the list, look
for it to become very important in the next year when Yahoo makes changes to its
portfolio of web properties and search engines (Inktomi, Altavista, Overture,
Alltheweb). |
