Finally a webmaster who recognize talent when he/she sees one. Just joking. But it inspired me to be fairer. Really.
Congrats to myself. I am now a moderator
March 19, 2007 Ok guys, started another review.
It’s on Index-it.net. Although design wise, there is nothing to shout about, but this directory is looking better and better once you go deep into it. It has some brilliant features to boot.
Won’t be long now, I will complete this review.
146 listings on Autho-Rity!
March 17, 2007 Ok, here is another blog post boasting about the number of listings done on Autho-Rity.
Well, I have done a total of 146 listings. But somehow, Google doesn’t seem to come as often to index the Autho-Rity directory. I guess the frontpage needs more constant updates eh?
Ok, the Ask Directory review has been done and published.
You can view it here.
Overall, a very good directory. Has tons of features for the webmaster and all. Please comment.
How often does Google cache your site?
March 16, 2007 I have started a simple project. The idea is to find out how often does Google updates their cache of a site.
I have listed down all my sites and the dates which the cache is updated (main page only). Maybe we can see a pattern from this and optimize further.

Hello all,
I have nearly completed the Ask Directory Review.
This young directory looks very interesting and has some very useful features for webmasters. If you are interested, please have a look at their site.
I am sure it will be even better in a few months time.
118 listings at AUTHO-RITY!
March 15, 2007 Yes, we now have 118 listings on Autho-rity.com! All descriptions done by yours truly. Thinking up of words and phrases is not easy, especially for so many sites. And I certainly need to brush up my English.
I hope there isn’t a lot of spelling mistakes.
Yes, I was banned from SEO Chat forums for posting in my directory reviews. I think they call it “link dropping”. Wow, nice term. It means that you are dropping links (very likely URLs to your own site)Â in your post and they don’t like it.
It is ironic that the admin who deleted my post and banned me didn’t realize that I still have several threads on other reviews on the same forum. Not doing his job well, I suppose. And worse, I feel very unwelcome. Wuhahaha, but what the heck…….it’s their forum. I mean, it’s not like the link to the reviews are not useful or are to spam sites. They could be useful to some of their readers. I guess it is okay if they are the ones doing the “link drop” themselves.
How many of you have been banned from forums? This is my first time. I think I am going to get myself a badge for this proud moment in my life.
What would you like to see in a directory?
March 14, 2007 Hello all,
I was wondering, what do you guys like to see in a general web directory?
I have created a list:
1. Blogs
2. Flash Games/Online Games
3. Downloads/Templates/Scripts
4. Podcast
5. Articles
Which of these do you like to have in a directory?
Yes, it is very stressful to own a directory.
One of the directory owners got a heart attack. You can read the thread here.
We wish Malcolm a fast recovery.
