If you cant find - then …
… Cheetah Find. Cheetah Find is a Web Directory. Yes, we have reviewed a few other directories in the past, and at a first glance the Cheetah directory is not that different from most other directories. It has categories and sub-categories, it offres free and paid submissions. It has a reasonable number of links in it -like you would expect.
Ok, I’ll cut to the chase - the focus of this directory is free stuff. On the main page of the site, the Free Categories are the ones that are featured, and all other categories are “almost hidden” in a small box - and a small font for the links! With Frebies from graphics, hit counters and web templates there is a pretty good collection of freebies that most webmasters wopuld find useful. Then when looking again, the site has a nav bar right at the top that links to the Web Directory and all of the other Freebies.
To start with, I had trouble identifying the directory script that runs this directory, but after carefully looking around I finally guessed it was using phpLD. Now, what made it so hard was the fact that the site looks like no other directory I have ever seen. Next to every category, there is a little graphic that is in some way representative of the category. The visual appeal of the main categories page is just soo much better than any other directory I have looked at. I really wish that everyone who used a common script took the time and effort to actually make it look different rather than being just a clone (or nearly) of the default template that comes with the script.
