I own a directory, it's fairly big and filled with links I'd use myself. I had to get rid of all the tell-tale searchable signs it was a directory early on to keep the spammers at bay and have added a hidden box that when filled the application is rejected without me seeing it. People don't fill in boxes they don't see, bots do.

I reject the majority of links being submitted, I'd say 1 in 12 is about the number I currently find worthy.

I'm proud of the directory and I've never given a reason for rejection. I frankly don't care what anyone thinks, worthy sites welcome. Complaints, bribes, explanations, begging, promises, reciprocal link offers and excuses aren't.
