Introduction: What is Links2start?

The densest, most comprehensive human-edited directory of web links

Maintained by skilled editors

• Automated search engines produce millions of mostly useless results to search queries.

• At the other end of the spectrum, commercial directory sites are plagued by out of date reviews, lack of latest site links in volatile subjects, and a link density so low that usually only a handful of links will be scanned by the user.

As Links2start grows, so does the number of subject editors

• Editors can categorize and present the most important links on each subject, culling out the bad and useless and keeping only the best content.

• A Links2start page is basically a collection of categorized links. The concept includes a series of sub-pages, each of which is typically maintained by an individual editor.

• Just as the Open Directory Project built the definitive catalog of the Web, Links2start follows in this tradition to become the densest catalog of the Web.

The Internet's most compactly presented database of Web content

• Classified by humans, not robots.

• The most efficient resource discovery on the Web.

• Links2start combines its own API with human editors who compact the best links from the Web's largest and most popular search engines and portals, including The Open Directory Project, Google, Bing, and hundreds of others.

• Links2start provides the opportunity for everyone with a special knowledge of any subject to contribute.

How Links2start works

The importance of link density

• Links2start is a very fast way of finding products and services.

• The unusually high density of links makes it easy for the human eye to scan.

• Quickly find both the companies you know about and those you have not yet discovered.

• With the clear and simple Links2start interface you can surf and compare which links give you the best results.

• The Links2start system counts hits and brings the most popular links to the top of the list. Over time, this process recommends the links with the greatest merit.

The "Add link here" button makes it easy to add a link in a specific category.

• As with links, the most popular categories will be ranked at the top of the page.

• Because we list all the links within their own subject and category you can quickly find companies you may have heard about but of which you only vaguely remember the names.

• Editors can select new and/or exceptional links and feature them. Editors with a background or interest in a particular subject will be able to select quality links to websites especially relevant to the subject at hand.
