It's been getting pretty good traction thanks to decently high Google search rankings for API related queries. A decent amount of large companies have submitted their APIs or requested to claim their page.
I haven't been able to spend a lot of time on it recently to add features but I have a lot of cool stuff in mind.
- imperialWicket 13y agoThis is a good idea. I seem to remember a couple similar directories, but am having trouble digging up links this morning. From an API-consumer perspective, things like verified user ratings, verified implementations/testimonials, updates, and library/wrapper details would be awesome. That said, I see how these features wouldn't make it into an early cut, or why they'd be avoided; just my 2 cents.
- 6thSigma 13y agoThanks! Ya, I definitely want to make the site more consumer focused. I get a lot of interest from the producer side but not as much from the consumer side.
- cjbarber 13y agoNice job! Have you monetized the companies contacting you to claim their page?
- 6thSigma 13y agoThanks! Nope, claiming is free. My monetization plan is charging for featured rankings on the home page and search results. I need to build a larger consumer audience before I could justify charging for that though.
