I'm definitely seeing more and more "mamma.com" in the referrals. It's coming via my NBCi listings.

I'm right there with you. I just noticed this with a almost new site. It's in Inktomi paid inclusion and I just picked up Mamma as a rising referer. Never really seen traffic from there before.

How is it related to Nbci?

I know I've not done that one yet ;)

It's a meta engine, so Mamma scans the other engines and directories to build its own SERP, NBCi is one of the group it's now using.

I have been getting some (not much) traffic from Mamma as well. I assumed it was all from partner listings of my goto bids. Taking a closer look, it seems most is goto, with a few ink listings.

Work NBCi too, Drastic (while it's free). Ixquick is also picking them up, no telling how many others. I listed a whole bunch of obscure pages in NBCi (good content, would stand alone), they started showing up in the referrals within a day or two.

I have been doing decently with an NBCi listing (not loads of traffic, but decent compared to my other SEO efforts thus far.) Not seeing any coming through mamma, however.

Do NBCi allow multiple listings from the same site? If so, do you know the criteria offhand?

>multiple listings

Yes, unless it has changed recently. Since the LiveDirectory is click-popularity driven, the editors only seem to worry about the ones that are bumped to the top.
