Bigoole crosses 600,000( It will cross Dmoz soon)

I am happy to announce that www.bigoole.com (Bigoole web directory ) has crossed more than 2,000,000 listings(600,000 urls )


It has indexed more than 600,000 urls in about 6 days In few months time it will definitely overtake Dmoz as the World's Largest Web directory.


Bigoole is different from others as it has Search interface only compared to other directories which need you to browse through them

As of now the listings are sorted by PR(Google page rank)


To see the latest url being indexed see here

If you have approved 600,000 sites in 6 days, that means that you aren't nothing like DMOZ. You are accepting every site, instead of being selective. Your directory will likely fail. If you are stealing your listings from DMOZ, then it was destined to fail from the get go.

I think you have not read the thread above

It indexes and urls and stores the data and then listings are sorted by page rank!

When you search for a keyword hosting it will give you exact results!

So I searched for the keyword "hosting", and I got spam.....Like I said before, you are destined to fail unless you are actually looking at the sites....We already have a spamdex, it's called Google.

The PR update in my site is going on after that you see the listings after I have indexed all the urls I have

I would be also relying on my own page data to sort the listings

So it’s not the same as DMOZ so could not be in the same league. DMOZ is managed by thousands of editors who look to make the best directory with quality listings. Your directory does not do that by the looks of it.

I do not think a directory can be better than DMOZ, yes DMOZ has its problems but it only has quality(for the most part) and human edited by thousands of editors

I think you applied for an editor at bigoole!

If I allow editors to edit the listings they will reject some quality links and will add spam or thier own sites at the top thats why!

Also Bigoole can be human edited in future as it has a admin interface for each category!

Suppose if I you become a editor how many urls can you add per day?

1000?

Perhaps After indexing some 50 million urls we can start another human edited directory!

Woul dnot waste my time, with DMOZ i would, I can see DMOZ helping many users all around the world, a true resource.

but as i see it now, "Bigoole" is just out for its self and for your gain thats what i think and i know when talking t other users they think the same.

your directory indexes sites so wheres the quality in that? DMOZ approves one by hand and has rules, how can your indexer apply rules that you have??

i know i am not the only one who thinks its not really a directory but mor elike a search engine which has just been given the lable "Directory".

just what i think

So you're just another one of those sites that scrapes content to call its own? How you can compare your site to dmoz is beyond me, but then again I'm just a typical blonde.

Where is the Quality in Dmoz?

Do all the editors follow the rules while approving or rejecting a site

Even v7n was removed from that directory some time ago and then was added?

The listings are sorted by page rank so there would be quality listings also as I have said we are developing our own page data which willl be used in sorting the listings!

even though we index all the urls we eliminate scrappy websites from our listings when a user searches for term

I hope 6 months from here I would win hands down as at that my site would have indexed over 75% of web


At that time my directory will have more quality listings than dmoz

you can't rely on aging directory than can't keep with the growth of Dmoz

Dmoz has only websites that was started long before

In my eyes bigoole is a bigjoke.
It got a list of registred domain name and now is indexing all of these sites with an automated tool.
It does not care about quality of these sites. In http://www.v7n.com/forums/597467-post22.html he posted some links so we all can see what is being indexed. These list are very usefull. I'm think of using them to improve our spamfilters as most of these sites will never be listed by a serious directory.
Just look at http://www.bigoole.com/url1.php
an example
"www.a1homejob.com" reroutes to a deeplink of "job.com"
"www.a1homejob.net" reroutes to the same deeplink
"www.a1homejob.org" reroutes to the same deeplink
"www.a1homejobs.com" are you getting the picture
"www.a1homejobs.net" or do you need more
"www.a1homejobs.org" so you now have index 6 'sites' all wich are redirects to one page with almost no content (except for the advertisements)
You can find many examples like this just by browsing the 6 pages he provided url1 to url6
BTW bigoole is not a directoy at all as you can only use a search to find sites they indexed. We call such a thing "search engine" not "directory".

It has only 600,000 urls so wait till it finish indexing about 75 million domains

It can index about 1 million domains in 5 days so at this rate it will take one year! I can increase this rate provided I have further resources

Speaking of quality it sorts the listings by PR as other directories do

since it has only indexes few sites there may be spams in the listings wait till it has indexed 75 millions then you can see how Bigoole gives good quality listings

See, you say you index them. A directory reviews links and places them in the correct category. You on the other hand don’t, your just a glorified search engine. As you just index links for search results. That’s what a search engine does.

It is in between a Search Engine and directory

It is not a Search Engine as it does not index all the pages

It is also not a directory as it does not places the listings in Categories like arts etc.,


so it is inbetween them

Also It does not need a lot of time to prepare a script that shows listings by keyword categories

that it is

Categories would be like this A,B,C etc.,

In the category A there would be keywords starting with a A. like this


I would call it a keyword directory !

You tell us that it is in between a search engine and a directory....What makes it so? To me, it seems like a search engine that doesn't have the resources to index every page it finds, which is an extremely slow process by the way....But I don't see any similarities to a true web index(directory). What is the relationship between your site and a directory?

I guess what we all really would like to know is: What makes your site so special to make you believe that you are better than one of the oldest and most trusted sites on the internet? I don't personally see anything unique with your site. In fact, I don't understand what it is you are hoping to gain here by advertising your site to webmasters. Could you elaborate?

Give it ayear and the site will be gone, It is a search engine, thats the basic building block of it, your just trying to make out its a directory.

You will never be better than DMOZ, you may have more sites than DMOZ but that does not mean you are better. Your middle between search engine and directory? Thats silly, go sit down and think for a while.

Keyword directory? nope your not that, you do not review each submission like a directory does etc

Just what I think
