Does anybody know of any New Directories. Possibly Free (Hopefully) lol

I get most of my traffic from Yahoo etc, but am open to alternative means.

Thanks, I checked the list fully a few months ago, but they all want cash - except for Mirago, Vital Vortal and British Pages.

Seems like everyones going paid or ppc. Oh well.

Thanks anyway though

Well, as a B2B client of mine has just got two enquiries worth just under £500,000 combined from this directory, I'm going to recommend http://www.andys-now2business.co.uk/ . I've had other business to business clients get enquiries from this one as well. There is still a free submit option. The amount of traffic is fairly small, but it is high quality.

That is an oustanding result. I hope the guy made it worth your while! Nice find.

Agree that the traffic quality on Andy's Now2Business is good. I will say that they have a tough policy on submission acceptance, you better make sure the sites are clean and genuine businesses before submitting.

Unfortunately, all free listings have been suspended until further notice.

Might be worth the £30 + VAT though.

30 quid for a listing sounds ok to me, also should sound good to the guy that had 500,000 in sales (whatever his margin!).

The fact is that this directory is constantly crawled by the 'majors' and you can add this to the fact that humans use it to get a very worthwhile proposition, and one that is definately worth discusssion.

You read it first on Webmaster World!

It wasn't £500K in sales..it was £500K worth of leads, but the client is very confident of converting both of them, so, yeah, they were pleased to say the least. But, I agree, it is good to find a directory used by yer actual human beings. Much kudos to them.

You should try out the RoboLink search engine / directory at www robolink.com. Ive had good results from getting listed. Its Irish but they appear to list sites from anywhere.
