| Web directory
A web directory is a comprehensive directory maintained in the World Wide Web. Yahoo directory is a typical example of a web directory. These directories are catalogues of information on websites hosted over the Internet. A good web directory will classify topics into categories and different subcategories. Many of these directory service providers agree to include websites in their listing, free of cost. The listing of websites in a web directory is normally done using a set of rules such as:
-Websites may be included in the web directory after classification, like a library catalog -Websites classification may be done on the basis of total web content and not on keywords or the home page -The classification of any website is normally done under one or two categories only once the web site submission is done for inclusion. |
