As the Internet’s oldest directory, we understand the importance of a fresh product that adapts and rises to the challenges presented in the ever-growing realm of cyberspace. That’s why we’re inviting you to join us in celebrating 19 years of success, and rolling out a brand new product to commemorate the occasion.

The All-New BOTW ProListing
A ProListing is a standard BOTW Directory listing that has been enhanced with featured content. You can now submit ProListings or upgrade an existing listing to ProListing status for less than $20 each month along with your annually-recurring listing fee. This allows you to add up to three sublistings as featured content on your standard BOTW listing. The sublistings appear directly beneath the existing directory listing, giving you the opportunity to highlight key pages of your business website and keep your listings relevant with fresh and eye-catching content. These sublistings can be modified at any time through your BOTW account.

In addition to introducing ProListings to the BOTW Directories, Best of the Web is cutting prices in half, for one day only, as a birthday gift to customers. Join us in celebrating our 19^th year spent as your ultimate source for guidance on the web by taking advantage of our biggest discount of the year!

Today only, submit an annually-recurring BOTW listing for just $74.95, and make it a ProListing for an extra $9.85 per month!

At Best of the Web, we know that everyone’s favorite part of September is not the change in seasons, falling leaves, or even the new fashion choices: it’s the back-to-school savings! That’s why we’re kicking off the Fall with a 20% discount on all submissions for the entire month.

Throughout September, save 20% on all submissions to the Web Directory, UK Directory, Blogs Directory, and Local Directory — listings and sponsorships alike. With this discount, you can submit annually-recurring listings for only $120 (originally $149.95) and Lifetime listings for a one-time fee of just $240 instead of the standard $299.95.

We offer a 30-day free trial to all first-time BOTW category sponsors. Use this promo code to save $10 on the monthly renewal fee (originally $49.95) after your free trial expires.

Why should new customers get all the discounts? This month, Best of the Web is rewarding its loyal customers with savings when upgrading any existing directory listings to Lifetime status.

During August, you can upgrade your annually-recurring listings to the Lifetime rate (usually $299.95) for a one-time fee of just $199.95. In order to obtain these savings, simply click here and proceed through the upgrade checkout process. No promotional code is required.

If you’re not interested in upgrading right now, you can still take advantage of this offer any time during August by signing in to your BOTW account and visiting the “Manage Listings” section, then following the upgrade link and proceeding through the checkout process using the promo code SAVE100.

All directory listings are reviewed annually to ensure that each site featured still abides by the BOTW inclusion criteria; however, by upgrading to the Lifetime rate, customers can avoid paying review fees year after year. Lifetime listings appear in the directory for life, as the name implies, or until you choose to remove them. Whether you have listings in the Web Directory, Blogs Directory, or UK Directory, be sure to take advantage of this offer and save $100 on all your Lifetime upgrades during August.

In the olden days of 1994, when the Internet was just beginning to make its way into businesses and households, Best of the Web got its start by enabling Internet users to nominate and vote for the best websites in a variety of categories. Since then, it has matured into not one but multiple editor-built directories. Today, whether the topic at hand is choosing a college, refinancing a mortgage, or leading a more eco-friendly life, users can always rely on the BOTW Directories to find authoritative information and resources.

In honor of 18 successful years, we’ve implemented new features on all directory products. For the first time, BOTW customers can add direct links to their brand’s Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Google+ profiles alongside  a directory listing or sponsorship. In addition to these permanent changes, we’re celebrating with our biggest discount of the year!

Today only, submit to the Web Directory, UK Directory, Blogs Directory, or Local Directory with the promo code SINCE94 to receive a 50% discount! Annually-recurring listings cost only $74.95 each year, or $149.95 at the Lifetime rate during this one-day sale. Customers can use this promo code to sponsor a category in the directory for only $24.95 each month (after a 30-day free trial for first-time sponsors). Users can also list their brick & mortar business in the Local Directory with advanced, Premium features for only $4.95 per month (or $49.95 at the annual rate) with this discount.

Sales are a great way to spread the festive spirit, but no birthday is complete without some presents. All day today we’re running a free giveaway through Twitter and Google+. To enter once, simply mention @BOTW on Twitter with the tag #since94.  You can also post to Best of the Web on Google+ with the same tag for two entries.

Stay tuned into Twitter, Google+, and Facebook all day long to help us celebrate in style. Most importantly, don’t forget to make your half-priced directory submissions before the clock strikes midnight and this limited-time sale ends!

Recent polls show that there are approximately 6 million more Internet users over the age of 65 than there were just five years ago. In a span of 30 days, more than 47% of seniors active on the web were searching for health care information or services according to reports from NielsenWire.

Now the senior population online as well as their loved ones can benefit from a one-stop resource for all senior housing, assisted living, and related eldercare needs. The new and improved Senior Housing Directory provides a comprehensive resource for all things relating to senior health. The primary feature of the directory is a local senior housing search tool based on location. It includes listings for adult day and home care services, Alzheimer’s care, both assisted and independent living facilities, residential care homes, and senior apartments.

Aside from these listings, the Senior Housing Directory provides in-depth information relating to the aforementioned topics including overviews of each type of housing option, a guide to determining the best eldercare solution for a loved one, and details about long term care insurance. Additionally, the Senior Housing Blog offers not only authoritative information relating to these topics, but also financial and lifestyle advice for independently living seniors.

Best of the Web is dedicated to providing meaningful guidance to Internet users seeking information pertaining to senior health. Through the new Senior Housing Directory, seniors and their families alike can not only pinpoint local and practical solutions to eldercare issues, but also interact with caregivers through discussion forums. Meanwhile there also remain countless senior health resources available in the Web Directory as well as the Blogs Directory.
