I’ve got a few things to report today…<\/p>\n

1. It seems to be a real trend for webmasters to start free directories and after about 1-6 months start charging for regular submissions, which is fine. But they usually keep the recip option open for free listings. So now, we have a directory type, Recip&Paid. So now we have:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Free (Free listings only)<\/li>\n
  2. Free&Paid (Free, paid and recip[usually])<\/li>\n
  3. Recip Required (Recip links only)<\/li>\n
  4. Recip&Paid (Reip and paid links)<\/li>\n
  5. Paid (Paid links only)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    2. I just processed over 100 reports which had been getting backlogged. This resulted in quite a few directories being deleted from the list. So I just wanted to let webmasters know that if your directory has errors (mysql, suspended etc etc) I generally give you 1 week to sort it out before I delete your directory. If you are having hosting problems or something like that which might take longer than a week to resolve please email me and I won’t delete your directory.<\/p>\n

    Thanks to the people who have been reporting directories, you’re really helping keep the lists up to date.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
