My New Directory

Hi I recently lauched a new directory.

Web Site Directory - Ruuz.com

How is it?

Please let me know. Thanks.

Typo: High Qulaity Links?
Capitalise: suggest a site & partners
Is there a need for the 2 Home links when you're already on the homepage? o.O
There's no need for 3 submit links either.

Sorry for the criticism, but i'm a perfectionist. I like the colour scheme and general layout though.

Nick,

Nice site bro. Also agree the double homepage link is not needed but overall look and useability is very good.

 

[Keral_Patel]

HEH HE HE. Yeah I am very good at making spellong mistakes when I am coding something. But I never make mistakes in the code. :D

Thanks. I will edit out the typos.

:imho: it's ready for business

Good design. The only thing that's not looking dandy is the times new roman links in the upper part of the layout. Other than that .. it's a nice design.

 

[Xombie]

The unmatching Times New Roman is a turnoff, also the lack of capitals in the hedaer navigation "suggest a site" perhaps would be much more fine with "Suggest a Site" or "Suggest a site"

Yes they are purely cosmetic things, but they can improve your look and immediate grabbage of visitors attention as they notice the lack of these little irks.

*Time New Roman unformatted pops up several times.

Also in the listing, how do you feel about alternating colours for each row?

Perhaps also a different colour for the link displayed [the non active one] and the description text.

Good luck!

 

[Keral_Patel]

Yeah that alternating colors would be a nice idea. I will do it.

And I will also do the capital thing. But man I don't even have time to open my own webites in a month.

Don't know what is going to happen.

Looks good. These site directories are pretty popular.

 

[drifta]

if you could change the colour of the links in results in cat pages to blue or something it would be cool
its hard to see what are links and whats not

and i cant see why people will pay $5 for a link in your directory when there are many free ones with high pagerank and alot of traffic. but its your site not mine

 

[Keral_Patel]

Yeah but I thought that this is my directory and wanted to have $5 as a submission fee. :D

So I made it. I have some directories which take $10 for it. and people are submitting in them.

Also need capitals - partners in the box.

EDIT
Check the site in FF, look at the search box.
Search result pagination would be nice

 

[Keral_Patel]

Okay well here are the sister sites too.

http://www.sluze.com
http://www.onlytravels.com

But I noted all the points mentioned by you people. I will try and change this as soon as I get the time.
