Definately a beautiful directory. Prices are a lil steep as a new directory, but the fact you allow free submissions for not-forprofit sites is nice.

Loren plans on running a promotion. He said he'll announce it a bit later on his SearchEngineJournal.

The promotion is going on now and I've written up the details on Search Engine Journal:
You can have your site listed in Umdum for free by Umdum Web Directory these simple steps.
Quote:
1. Go to http://www.Umdum.com
2. Select the most relevant base category for your site by browsing our Category Map.
3. Click over to the most relevant category then submit your site and select a payment method. Go through the entire submittal process but do not pay (just close the Paypal page or click 'back').
4. Rinse and repeat - submit your sites which deserve to be listed. We are looking for businesses, blogs, guides, content oriented sites, other search engines, your favorite sites.
5. Do not submit gambling, drugs, or illegal content sites. Do not submit 'built for AdSense sites." Do not submit scrapper content sites.
6. Submit one AUTHORITY site such as USAToday, your favorite local news channel, a Web 2.0 site, your favorite search engine, or other large sites.
7. List the sites that you submitted in the comment form below. I will then review, edit (if needed) and approve those submissions. (Do not link to the sites in the Comments field as SEJ's spam filter will hold your comment in moderation if it includes more than 2 links).

In specific situations, but not usually. Please submit your base home page unless listing internal pages is critical to your site.
thanks, Loren |

Very nice looking directory.
It has a bit the same look and feel as sevenseek, that's meant as a compliment
Good luck running and promoting your new directory, sej. |

I meant not in design, but the the feel of the directory, the build up of the categories.
Sej, why is it build in the modified biz-directory script? There are so much scripts out there, some are better than the biz, imo.
Also small error in this page, http://www.umdum.com/how_add.php, the link to See sponsored listing example, does not exsits. |

So many directory scripts, so little time
Thanks for pointing out that error, I'll get to it.
Best, Loren |
