If there is an SEO benefit, great. If not, I don't really care. I have a feeling that any directories that pass significant amounts of PR are going to already have substantial traffic.

You are correct on this one.

Last month at WMW conference goguides.org spent over $10,000 dollars promoting itself just to build brand awareness. A substantial amount of money has been set aside for airing TV ads across the U.S. and another $30,000 has been set aside for future conferences to continue building brand awareness. All this promoting is very expensive but has a direct affect on listings in the directory yet you bash the directory because it charges a fee? Of course you charge your customers nothing I suppose and work your daytime job for free? At least Go Guides has stood the test of time and works to promote its listings and brings awareness to the directory. Go Guides will never have search results like google because it doesnât have robots indexing billions of pages. But what it does have is real people doing real reviews following real guidelines. That makes goguides a quality directory regardless if you agree with it or not. Next time you decide to slander a directory because of its business model try doing some research first. GoGuides is one of the few good directories on the net. Its a shame that somebody with absolutely no clue of the cost involved to operate a directory would come along and call goguides a scam.
