I have tried to use the DNN Directory numerous times but I am almost always diasppointed.  For example when you go to the Directory it list Hosting (81) meaning there are 81 entries.  But if you click on it, I get 43 items over 9 pages.  Where did the other entries go?  This is not limited to the Hosting category either. 

The next issue is there appears to be no enforcement/editing/categorizing of entries.  In the Hosting category of the 43 results I get more that half are not hosting companies but are module developers, skins, etc. 

Am I the only one having difficulties finding things in the Directory?  It would help everyone, including vendors it it worked better.  Perhaps as part of the feedback we can flag items that are mis-categorized.

Just some thoughts...

I just posted a qustion along the same lines. The DNN community looks great, but, yea, that directory is kind of useless.

My issues is that I was looking for a more broad/generic category like 'DNN Consultants' or 'DNN implementors'. The categories, as they are now, seem overly narrow.

A search by region would be nice too.

Out of interest, have you tried the DotNetNuke Directory?

No I haven't.   I will give it a try and let you know what I think.

Thanks,
