Business directory for saudi arabia?

[skirril]

Hello,

I recently was looking for a business directory
for the country of Saudi Arabia. I did not find anything (like yahoo, or lycos), only a few badly
maintained (outdated) link lists.

Have the Saudi's not discovered the internet yet,
or are they just not organised yet?

I received an unsolicited request to sign up for one called [url=gulfdotcoms.com/]G-com[/url] recently. It looks pretty new, and there's no search function, but it's supposedly focused on the Gulf region.

Hi Skirril,

here's a few that come to mind.

[url=http://www.4arabs.com/links/Countries/Saudi_Arabia/]4 Arabs - Saudi Araiba[/url]
[url=http://www.webguidesaudiarabia.com/]Web Guide Saudi Arabia[/url]
[url=http://www.saudiarabiaseek.com/]Saudi Arabia Seek[/url]
[url=http://www.arabji.com/Saudi/]Arabji - Saudi[/url]

Does this help?

Yes, it helps.

Thanks a lot.

I dont know, but perhaps the forum should be split into:

a) Middle East /Arabic World
b) Asia and Far east
c) Oceania

or the title be changed as to reflect the scope..

This might help you to locate Saudi Arabian directories:

As to splitting down the Asian forum, I am sure that will happen, but it will probably be in a year or two. At this time, there simply aren't enough members from Asia to maintain meaningful discussions in separate fora. Woz - who is sound asleep right now - is preparing some great overviews over his vast realm and they will be split up in much the way you suggest. We can expect them soon - it is a massive piece of research he is doing.

PS. Skirril: Did you ever find the Switzerland discussion you asked about some time back? It is right here [webmasterworld.com].

Yes, I found them. Thanks.. :)

And thank you for the link (though it pretty much boils down to the urls given above.)
