Sign Language for the Deaf : Deaf Support Directory


Sign Language for the Deaf - Deaf Support Directory

 

Deaf Support Directory is very different from the many other web directories out there.

 

To make sure that our web directory maintains it high quality we do not accept sites that have little quality, and absolutely do not allow the pervasive 'made for adsense' websites that are now polluting the whole internet

 

To be accepted, every site submitted should have substantial and informative subject matter and be of a similar theme to the chief theme of this internet directory.

 

The other big point that makes this site different is that we don't only catalog the index page of each site, we also spider and index the majority of your deeper pages and record them in the 'deep search' section of our directory.
