Welcome to Open Directory Project

A Free Online Web Directory

Welcome to Open Directory Project, a free online Web Directory dedicated to building a directory of the highest quality, interesting, trustworthy and useful web sites on the Internet. We are a fully human-edited, peer-reviewed web directory that encompasses web sites with a broad range of topics, from Science, News, Health and the Environment to Comedy, Entertainment and Sports.

Open Directory project prides itself on the integrity of our editorial process. Web sites in our directory are listed because our editors feel that they contribute to a more open, healthy environment on the Internet that encourages free discussion, ideas and information.

Why Submit to a Web Directory?

Submitting to a web directory is an excellent way for your site to establish a positive reputation around the web, especially with search engines. Since the majority of web directories are human-edited and accept only legitimate content, search engines like Google, Yahoo!, Bing and others trust the sites on these directories to be legitimate, useful and high quality.

As a result, a site listed in a number of reputable web directories will typically have higher rankings on these search engines, leading to increased visitor traffic and better site reputation.
