Announcing October 2006 Directory of the Month: Directory Dump

PHPLD has announced its winner for the October 2006 Directory of the Month award and the winner is, Directory Dump. Directory Dump is a very nicely laid out and organized directory and is much more than simply the same free script with a few design modifications. Its design is definitely different from the dozens of directories we visit daily.

Directory Dump is a very new directory, but its popularity has skyrocketed over the past few months and there are dozens of web sites already listed and many more being added on a frequent basis. One of the best aspects of the directory that we wished more directory owners would do is the “Public Statistics” feature so the webmasters know what to expect when they submit a link. It is generally accepted that directory submission is for SEO value so while Page Rank and search engine ranking is vital when submitting to a directory, it is always nice to know how much traffic a directory gets. Directory Dump makes this information available in the right sidebar where they include information about how much traffic the web site gets monthly and how many people are currently browsing the directory

The categories are also very detailed so under each of the main categories, there are hundreds of subcategories so that visitors can easily find exactly what they are looking for and web site owners can place their link in the exact category that matches their web site.

You can visit the directory and evaluate it for yourself at http://www.directorydump.com.
