The DotNetNuke Directory - A useful tool for finding DNN information

Mon, 05 Jun 2006 04:41:01 GMT

A quick search on Google for DotNetNuke-related websites revealed over 5 million results. It's no wonder that trying to find useful DNN information can be a little tricky sometimes! The DotNetNuke Directory is a free, human-edited directory of DotNetNuke links for modules, skins, jobs, events and even a showcase section for websites powered by the DotNetNuke platform. Every submission is screened, categorized and tagged by the editors to ensure that sub-standard websites and information do not clutter the directory making it easier for the searcher to find the exact information they require. You also do not have to log in to submit a site - although once authenticated you have access to site reviews and can rate websites. A lot of people do not realize the power of this open-source platform - you can download it for free and have a fully-functional website up and running in under an hour. There is a rapidly growing community (350+ new users a day!) and with tools such as the DotNetNuke Directory you can find a wealth of resources, modules and skins to suit your requirements.
