IP.Board Community Directory

Posted by Charles, 09 June 2010 · 1,518 views

The new IP.Board Community Directory is a great place to list your community to get more traffic and members on your site.

It's free for all license holders and IPS Hosting customers to submit their community in the directory. As this is brand new it is still growing and we are taking suggestions for new categories and enhancements so please let us know how we can improve it.

The directory has been online for a few weeks in a preview testing form and 206 listing have been made. These 206 listings have received over 4100 clicks: that's nearly an average of 20 clicks per listing! This is a great way to drive traffic to your community.

Be sure to list your community in the directory...

In addition to being listed on the official IPS Community, the community directory will be available in the next version of our iPhone App for IP.Board. This means members can browse the directory, find your community, and register on your community all while on their iPhone!


The directory is powered by IP.Links: one of our great, free Community Projects for IP.Board. The IP.Links software is written by Brandon D here on our community.




Quality software, like everything from IPS. :)
I am more interested in making our own iPhone apps and getting out from under the IPB umbrella. I see that is happening soon.
thanks. more people comes visit my website from your directory :)
Has anyone else noticed that the site names have the little v-card attached to them, as if it were a member name?
How about adding a 'Sports' Category?

There is one - it is under 'travel and recreation'.

Oops, my bad. Thanks for pointing that out for me Ian. :blush:
The listings appear to be sorted be date added - would it be better to make it alphabetical do you think?

Cheers,

Date added lets you see sites that were most recently added. While I dislike it because it puts mine at the bottom, I believe it makes the most sense.
Maybe we can get an option to have one that shows most clicks?
Not sure if it is just me, but none of the links work at all, they all give me a server not found error when clicking the link in the top box

How about sorting by least clicks? That way the less popular boards get some exposure that they need while the more popular boards get less (because obviously they can afford to get less due to their popularity).
All the suggested sorting options is available by clicking the 'Click to show filter options' link at the bottom of a category listing.
We're talking default display. :)
http://community.inv...um/438-iplinks/ is probably the best place for feature suggestions. ;)
