Directories
Click here to view the articles in DirectoriesThe term "Directories", or "Human powered" search facilities, mainly refer to online catalogs which categorize Web sites into thematic sections. Yahoo!, along with the regular Web search, offers one of the most complete catalogs on the Web.
When you submit a site to a directory, it is queued for editorial review. Usually, when you submit, you are allowed to choose the category your site will be placed under, as well as to enter the desired description and title for your site, which will show in the related category. However, the actual presence of your site is subject to the editor's decision when he or she browses your site.
Directories DO NOT accept automated submissions and have special means to protect themselves from auto-submission software. You should always submit manually to a directory.
