East Link - Review

I thought it might be fun to look at some of the directories that you see online today. Some are old and not as maintained. Some are old, and doing well. And some are new and just getting started. I picked East Link at random.

As of December 22, 2010 here are some observations.

1. It is using the Lemon Shadow template from OS Designer, a nice clean design on the homepage all the way down to the detail page.

2. The last link added has a link ID of 29805 which equates to a possible count of the number of links submitted to the directory.

3. The latest link was added April 8, 2010 which means no new links have been added for 6 months.

4. Their submit page requires user login, which is a little less common these days.

5. The most interesting of all is this domain was registered November 13, 1995, so the domain is 15 years old!

I could there being a benefit even now to submitting a link to this directory with the domain age. :)
