what is a bidding directory?

I have been listening to this term from some last time.

Is this a sort of directory script where users bid for a premium/featured listing? or what is it.

Anybody using it? or making $$$$? If yes i am also interested.

i have a few bid directories.

it is like a normal directory, but here you are in control.

if you want to be link leader you get a sitewide link for your site, showed as linkleader.

buy buying your way to the top.

or just in the category you want to be shown on top.

here is a example www.pickdirectory.com

Seems like an expensive way to get to the top imo.

Do they make nice money?

i am promoting my sites in a easy way.

it makes cash, but all cash goes back in the site.
in advertising, templates, etc.

but i want to do it all in a good way.
we had a lot of link submissions who are rejected after review.

we like to make it a clean directory.
but this goes for all my directories.

and it depends, it isnt expensive to get on top in the category in my directory.
and dont forget, the listings are permanent.

so you can do it steady and easy.

and i think that is the way to go.

very interesting idea. i've never thought about bidding in a webdirectory. i've seen some directories where the highest bidders were paying like 2k dollars to be on top. why should people bid for the top position since nobody clicks on the links in directories? only for the pagerank offered by the site? is it worth it?

bidding directory is a sort of normal directory.

but on a bidding directory the buyer of the link is in control, he or she can bid the way to the top.
