Anyone heard of www.britishinformation.com ?

Hi everybody!

The marketting manager for one of the companies who's website I look after recieved an email inviting them to join

www.britishinformation.com

Now I'm a bit concerned by something the accompanying email says:

"The reason [the directory] obtains such high listings is predominantly due to the fact that it is surrounded by hundreds of very strong generic domain names such as www.recruitmentcompanies.com. "

Now is this a bit dodgy? Or am I paranoid? :) I just don't want to "hang around any bad neighbourhoods"...

They're quite pricey and I've never heard of them - can anyone tell me if they've had a satisfactory ROI from a listing with these guys? Maybe not - I think they might be new... in which case what would you advise - get in there early, or wait till they take off?

Cheers,

Dave

Ive never heard of them personally other than via a reference to their url in another forum.

I had a little dig about and all i could find was thisfrom a NG spam report regarding an unsolicited email (http://groups.google.com/groups?q=britishinformation.com+info&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&selm=956uvq%24dqc%241%40nnrp1.deja.com&rnum=1)

They seem to have a good number of links to them, but these could just be from their advertisers.

Maybe someone else can shed more light on them.

Thanks Rob.

Anyone else out there heard of this directory?

Has anyone actually advertised with them? Any traffic?

Submitted a few sites ages ago.

But as yet no traffic from them...
