Subject Directories

Subject directories group web sites into subject categories and sub-categories which you can browse to find links to web sites of interest.

  • True directories are compiled by humans.

  • Web site owners/managers can ask to have their sites included in a subject directory. Less selective subject directories will accept most submitted sites.

  • Subject directories with more stringent quality standards will be more selective and will, therefore, more consistently lead to better quality material.

  • Selective subject directories must be created by humans because computers cannot evaluate the quality of the web sites.
