Hi All:
Id like to introduce myself . I am new to this industry and for quite awhile now been trying to develop a links directory.Between Health issues (thankfully now under control) and lifes little speed bumps this endeavor has taken alot longer than previously hoped for. I look forward to any and all suggestions or assistance ( Im not proud to ask or recieve for either)
Anyway I want to know is there a template or a suggest rules list ? I see alot of directories refer to Greenies rules and was wondering what to watch out for and what to expect when I go live and start requesting links .Anyway thats all for now again I look forward to meeting and speaking with as any of you as time affords.
