There is a new business directory for the industry on the site which replaces the old directory. The New directory would allow any industry participants to add their company profile with website link etc.
The advantage of having listed your website will be that you may be getting huge traffic to your site shortly. We would request a reciprocal link of http://publishing-industry.net on any of your pages on your site, if you want us to include your link. That is fair enough. You must only choose one most appropriate category that fits and suits your business. Once you are on that category page, you may click Suggst Link on top menu.
You must only add plain text and write a simple brief on your website offering. A contextual and meaningful description of the site will assure qualified visitors to your site.
Currently there are six major chapters and each has several categories and sub-categories. We will be adding many more sub categories as per the needs. Visitors may suggest an appropriate category if it is not found in the existing system, which may be included at the discretion of editors.
The directory invites knowledgable volunteer editors to add selective links. The registration is open at http://publishing-industry.net/directory/register.php
