The thread has been retitled (as it wasn't actually referring to his directory) but it shows the problems of naming your site after a common phrase!

I was waiting to see what directories would be posted, so I'll go ahead and start;

RealEstateABC - I get traffic from this one
Reals - I get traffic from this one
IBSTeam - I get traffic from this one

So what directories do you get traffic from?

oooo oooo don't forget about REW's directory - one of my top referring phrases containing "MLS" from the last few days is http://www.google.ca/search?q=bonita...ient=firefox-a

Both the customer site and the directory listing are top 5 in Google, and I know from our stats that visitors clicked through to the customer site

I also like the directory route and usually try to hit alot of the free ones and I pay to submit to a few others also.

Some directories are getting hit by G lately - it looks like a hand job to a lot of people tho - some directories aren't even ranking for their own names.

There will always be directories in G that rank well - even Matt has indicated that there are some good directories to be a member of. Ones that are selective in admitting sites.
