This would be far better for both than any form of "doorway", wether the doorway is an individual page or a seperate directory.

The old reasons for rejecting sites with a large number of recips are now largely defunct.

I'd like to see more discussion on this topic.

Agreed Bill

I've been building 3 distinct sites wrapped around the same content, but with largely different text. Pain in the butt to do, but does enable me to get 3 pseudo mirrors without dup page issues.

Would be great to use as many as 30 or 40 tight text recips on a single page...as long as they look good. And should be much better se wise.

I'm a member of Bill's fan club too.

My only thought on custum recips is that they must be legible. I've seen people build some really crappy recip tables where the text color is barely lighter than the bgcolor. The font can't be too small and there must also be a small amount of breathing room so that each list's link is distinguishable. Otherwise, I just assume see 35 recips rather than only 9.

Yup, it is a bit more work...no doubt about it

But, I have a sexy lil submit monkey so at least I don't have to do that part of the job
