For the longest time I have been fed up with search engine results.  The problem for me is that the results from the search engines are gathered by a robot, that makes no considerations for the quality of the links - or for that matter - how relevant the links are.

There have been so many times that I have tried to click on a link that comes up in the search results, and I end up at a site that is completely unrelated to what I was looking for.  Frustrated, I end up searching a number of times before I find what I am looking for and I have had enough.

So, what I did was find a world wide website directory that was human edited (that means humans check the sites and decide if they are relevant or not) where I could search and find quality results.  For example, I found a site that would let you register domain names and get cheap web hosting in just one search. 

I wish I had known about web directories sooner.
