Hi HN

Over the last few weeks, I analyzed 50+ real directories to understand what’s actually working in 2025.

Instead of opinions or hype, I focused on:

Real traffic data (SimilarWeb)

SEO & keyword shifts (Ahrefs / Semrush)

Public revenue signals

Category-level patterns (what’s growing vs saturated)

The goal was simple: If someone were starting a directory today, where should they focus — and what should they avoid?

I turned these findings into a free Directory Trends Report 2025
