I knew webdirectoryireland.com sounded familiar. :) I may even get around to building an Irish webdirectory or search engine this week.

It is a fascinating list. A few of the directories have obscured WHOIS data (Domains by proxy etc). Another seems to be a Dmoz cookiecutter site. Some of them have had serious development work. Amazing to see that niceone.ie is still around (almost).

I *think* they've sort of re-invented themselves as a web development shop, or maybe they always were?
I think that initially it was going to be Ireland's version of Yahoo but the webdev stuff was being done in parallel.

It used to be quite a nice (as were quite a few of the ones on that list)
It's amusing to see that someone grabbed Doras Web Directory Ireland Your Doorway to the Internet and have something running on it again
Seems to be better than the original. :) I was wondering who was going to grab it after local.ie dropped though I haven't being paying close attention to .ie drops. It should be interesting to see how Google handles the old linkjuice.

Seems to be a new wannabe op: Welcome to Gateway Ireland
It is meant to unite/exploit the Irish diaspora and it will have pillars. The presentation videos are worth watching purely for their absolute lack of a clue. Apart from Fergus Burns of Nooked, their advisory board looks like the classic bunch of government approved committee joiners. The whole diaspora thing has been done before with globalirish.com, irishabroad.com, irishcentral.com etc.

These people really don't understand the web directory business or, indeed, the web's evolution. They haven't figured out what domain they are going to use and it was suggested on Twitter during the launch day on that they approach the Irish Times about the using ireland.com domain.

Hi All
Probably getting into the "directory" game too late, but heres my attempt at setting up a Golf Directory, really am trying to set up a portal for everything golf in one place, directory, news and in the future a forum for users.
Golf Links Directory and Golf News from GreatGolfLinks - Home
Directory is free to add any golf related site, but €2.50 per month each for logo and/or pictures. Anyone can add a golf related site without having to log in, so if anyone has any good golf related resources online I'd love for them to add them here.

feedback would be very welcome.
thanks.

There seems to be a bit of identity confusion going on in that it looks more like a blog than a web directory. You have to emphasise the idea of it being a directory or at least a one stop shop. Also the news feeds at the top take up quite a bit of the screenspace that could easily be devoted to a 'latest links' type inset.

I don't know what kind of traffic the site is getting but it might be too early to try charging for logos and promotion. The best thing to do would be to ask golfers what they want to see and what would be most useful and most importantly, what kind of stuff they would be willing to pay for either as a subscription or one-off.

Good comprehensive list above. Going to give my own site a quick plug www.anythingineed.ie it's been online about 6 months and has 85,000+ listings throughout Ireland. The site is 100% free to use and for anyone to have their business or services listed on. I know it's not Google but you have to start somewhere!
BTW surprised nobody has mentioned yourlocal.ie on this thread...
