The dirSpace directory is an established and high quality directory with a Google Page Rank of 6 on the home page, and good page rank scores on nearly all internal pages. It is clear that time and effort has gone into this directory, due to the clean and simple design. There are no adverts on this directory! It is funded purely by link submissions.

To submit a commercial listing, it costs just $6, and if the link suggestion is declined, then the fee is refunded. Interestingly, if you are submitting a non-profit website, such as a government, educational or charity site, then you can submit a link for free. It’s a refreshing change that the owner of this directory offers this concession.

In my opinion, what makes this directory novel (or rather, stand out) are the detailed descriptions for each link category. For example, if you look at the deep category of Auctions, in the Shopping category, you can see that just as much time has been devoted to writing a quality description as for the upper category. This is a subtle benefit when it comes to search engines, since there is more information relating to your link on the same page as your link. This therefore associates additional information with your link other than just the category name (as is the case with most other web directories)!

For just $6, it’s definitely worth submitting a link. You have nothing to lose, as your fee is refunded if the link is rejected. If your link is accepted, you’ll get listed on an internal page with good page rank!
