[size=13pt]A website with various Businesses (general business directory from resturants to health services to entertainment businesses) or a website with a Nightlife directory focus (clubs, restaurants, bars, lounges etc) Would love to get honest opinions from you[/size]

I thought V-Connect and some googling would achieve both results?

Nothing stops you from doing both in one website

[size=13pt]Funny thing is whenever i search for listings v connect does not exactly pop up much. Not exactly a complete yellow page site in the sense that it doesn't consider proximity in its default search setting. thanks @ codehouse....
@ spikes, much regards bro, the Nightlife idea is just to make the website specialized for something, a site everybody knows lists hangout spots not necessarily everything... u dig

@op true but I see a lot of people going straight to V-connect to do their search (just as you don't go to google to search for google, hope u get my drift), that's my point and that it is because they've been in business for a long time now and have started TV advert already and you know anything on TV sells.

That, however, does not stop you from competing anyway,

Cheers

True, nothing stops me from competing grin, but its tough. whats your take on being specialized? Not listing everything just hangout spots around, much viable idea in your opinion?

Well, building a directory for today's people should go beyond "specialization" as you cannot predict human want. If it were some other site then you can be talking of specialization, just as I can't go to car website to order for burger. A car site is a specialized kind of site but yes you can decide to go for options A or B. Pause and think, it will take thesame code to implement both, so I go with @SpikesC

As popular as google is som ppl are pissed with it. Theyre other even recent search engines. So if youve got d chops bring it on-variety is cream on d latte.
Vconnects marketg budget may crush yours though.
Besides, how does vconnect make its money?

Vconnect makes money from advert per listing, and adverts on the side bars etc....
