Applegate Directory

£245 a year

Has anyone had any experience with a Silver listing in the Applegate Directory for £245 a year?

Sounds like quite a lot of money to me.

No-one? Can't be that good then ;)

It is possible to see just how many pageviews each company listing has had, so you can judge for yourself. Below each individual company listing the page says: "The number of times that this company page has been viewed can be seen on the results page for XXXXX". Click on the link and it will give you a historical breakdown month by month of all the pageviews.

I did a quick sampling and saw that companies were often getting 20-50 page views per month. It doesn't appear to state anywhere whether that number includes search engine bots and other automated crawlers, but I would expect it to.

Applegate is supposed to be used by other people in industry, so the value of a link can't necessarily be judged in comparison to Yahoo, for example. I have no experience of it though.
