Worst lyrics ever
1) The killers - Somebody told me
Well somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It’s not confidential
I’ve got potential
how simple… how stupid.
2) Kaiser Chiefs - Never miss a beat
It’s cool to know nothing. Yes very cool and lame.
3) The Ting Tings - Shut Up And Let Me Go
Shut up and let me go
This hurts, I tell you so
For the last time you will kiss my lips
Now Shut up and let me go
I can write this kind of songs in less than 5 seconds…
4) Ida Maria - I Like You So Much Better When You’re Naked lyrics
Cause I like you so much better when you’re naked
I like me so much better when you’re naked
I like you so much better when you’re naked
I like me so much better whne you’re naked
My 5 years old nephew can come with better lyrics and he doesn’t even speak English
5) Scouting For Girls - Elvis Ain’t Dead lyrics
cause Elvis ain’t dead
and you’re coming back
and Elvis ain’t dead
and you’re coming back
Oh
In fact this should be number 1. When I think of it all their songs are really talentless. And the music is bad as well

Some stat
Hi All,
July was a good month for Lola Directory. First we did the ‘Lola dance’ which move quality sites up on the list. Then the traffic gone up by 25% and we had 4000 unique visitors.
We can see it well with Alexa that now our rank is 137,922. Back in June before we changed the directory model to free we were around 500,000
And more people are using our search function.
We are still working on furoms system. We hope it will be ready by the end of the month!

‘Lola dance’
Hi all,
We perform some updates, so many sites move up in the ranking and many move down… minor websites were removed because they failed to score the minimum points to qualify.
The sponsored links stay as they are. The price will move up tomorrow.
Another news - due to massive submissions from Turkey we had to block access from Turkey for a while. We don’t accept non English sites and we were swamped by sites from Turkey. In two weeks we will resume access as normal.
Have a nice weekend,
Lola Directory
‘Lola dance’ has postponed to the 18/07
Hi all,
Due to some technical problems we have decided to postpond the Dance and do it on Friday the 18/07.
This gives you extra days to buy sponsor links on discount.
Lola Directory
Alexa ranking
Hi all,
It is not a secret that since we change the directory into a free model the traffic is much better. If by mid June we were around 500,000 at Alexa, we are now 198,980 in less than a month. Yes we know that Alexa is not 100% accurate but it is a good tool to check trends.
And we can see it as well in the server statistics. We have now around 250 visitors per day and each week we getting stronger.
The next project after the ‘Lola dance‘ will be adding forums to the site. And for those who are waiting for the next ‘Top 10′ list, we are working on the ‘Top 10 Movies ever’.
Lola Directory
Lola Dance is due on the 15/07!
Hi all,
What is ‘Lola Dance‘?
Like Google one, but on smaller scale 
When you submit a site we calculate the site quality value according to a special formula that we have developed. This determines the site’s position under each keyword. But as time goes by, some sites are getting better and some are getting worse. So it is time for some updates. We have also improved the formula so now we can measure the quality of each website much better.
What does it mean for your site?
It means that on the 15/07 each site in the directory will have a new quality value, so the position under each keyword will be changed!
Even more important sites that will reach a score below 50 will be remove. To avoid that we strongly recommend to use our sponsor link option. This will guarantee your position and the ‘Dance’ will not effect your site.
Even better until the dance the price of sponsor link is $14.99 and if you buy 2 you can have it for $25. After the 15/07 the price will go up to $24.99 per link.
Will you get value for your money?
We do think so. In fact it is a real bargain. Just take a look on Google who is number 1 for ‘cheap vps directory’ or try to run ‘cool voice messages’ or ‘iphone directory’ these are just a few examples. In fact Lola Directory is ranking well for a lot of keywords and we are improving every week.
So hurry up - Submit your site before the 15/07
Have a nice weekend,
Lola Directory
What’s new with Lola Directory?
Hi all,
We are growing and growing each day. The traffic has increased this month by 40% compering to May. Search engines send us 15% more traffic. Not bad… So far in June we had around 5000 search queries with keyword Travel leading.
We really try to keep the directory with quality websites. That’s why we are now limiting each keyword to have only 30 websites under it. 30 options are more than enough for someone to find what they are looking for. At the moment the closest keyword to achieve this cap is Automotive.
We are also working very hard on a new quality rating for the websites. We hope to implmant it somewhere around mid July. This means that any website that will not score the minimum points will remove from the directory. It also means that the order of the websites under each keyword is going to change. So if your site is at the bottom, you still have a chance.
Keywords of the week: Games some interesting site you will find there.
We are open to any suggestion. Please feel free to contact us.
Top Ten Social Bookmarking Websites
StumbleUpon has a huge range of visitors and there is a ton of traffic to be gained from using this bookmarking service. It is easier then others to use as well because you can download their toolbar which allows you too stumble any website you want without leaving the site. This makes for a lot of people using the service in the wrong way though.
Digg is alike StumbleUpon in many ways except for the fact that there isn’t a toolbar which you can download. You will need to go to the website to actually Digg a story. This is worth the hassle though because it can bring good traffic if you get enough Diggs. The goal is to reach the front page but this will rarely happen.
Furl is becoming more popular as Social Bookmarking becomes more widely used. It started out a lot smaller then the first two sites mentioned in the list but it gained power over time and now is in my top three for networks to be submitting your sites too.
This site has been helping bloggers get noticed for awhile now. It is more directed to the technology side of things but you can submit your work to it almost no matter what. It has been dying down a little as of late though as other networks are quickly gaining on these guys.
Del.icio.us is a bookmarking site for your favourites and is easily incorporated in your web browser. You can add a button in which you can then tag your sites. Many people use this site and it is really popular. The more people who have the same bookmarked page the more exposure the webpage will receive.
Propeller isn’t as nearly used as network of some of the ones in this top ten list but they for some reason are very powerful at getting your bookmarks featured. Your bookmarks can reach the front page of this website quickly and in not time you would be receiving many extra visitors.
Fark has recently caught my eye and they have been moving up the lists for a long time now. Fark has a lot more exposure then a lot of the sites above it in the list but they still haven’t quite got the system down like the above networks. You need to gain from bookmarking and that is why it is #7 and not #3.
Reddit is one of the networks I became familiar with when I first started using these networks and I have yet to stop using it. Although it is becoming played out a little and the newer ones are becoming more widely used and featured I still think it deserves a spot on the top ten.
MyBlogLog is a newer service to me so I can’t give you much information on it. I just recently got accepted to the website and it looks amazing. I think it will be moving up this list within the course of 2008. It should be interesting to see where this site ranks in the beginning of 2009.
Kaboodle just like most of the other top networks has a funny yet catchy domain name. They are key to use and I think this network is important. It isn’t filled with newbie’s yet and you can get yourself listed amongst other great websites. Do so before this network fills up with garbage.
Top ten search engines
1. Quintura
A new concept for searching the web. Not the regular list of results but a navigation through a tags cloud that makes it so easy to find what you need. You have to try it to see how cool it is. Why can’t Google do so?
2. Clusty
This is a very fast search engine that offers you good results with a bonus: It is also organizing the results in topics so it is easy to find what you need. So if you are searching for ‘London’ you will get a list of results like any other search engine plus a list of categories: Hotels, Photos, Travel etc… Best of the rest.
3. Blinkx
A video, audio and podcasts search engine. They claim to have 14 million hours of video and when you search, you find that it is in fact the case. Best place to look for a video. Blinkx has a great design, not so common with search engines.
4. Answers.com
Not only you get suggestions for the terms you are looking for, you also get a lot of information about the topic you are searching. So if you are looking for ‘London’ you will get a page full of relevant information about the city plus relevant sites. Very handy.
5. Kosmix
Asks you which topic you want to explore and brings you lots of information and sites about the topic. Good if you know what you are looking for.
6. Exalead
Gives you a good tool to narrow the results by relevant topics, site type (blog,forum, language etc…) makes it easier to find what you need.
7. Factbites
The results are not the best, but you get a lot of information about each site, so you don’t need to click on the link and check the website by yourself. This feature is a time saver.
8. Hakia
“Meaning-base” search engine that tries to understand what you meant with your search. We like that the search engines gives you clues about the quality of the results (’tough one’, ‘Did I get it right?’). Still in beta version but looks promising.
9. Congoo
Premium Content search. Brings you all the latest news about any topic. Fast, with nice design, but somehow uninspired.
10. Blackle
The results are from Google, but the background is black which according to the site saves energy. Anyway it looks better than Google…
Top 10 Sports Websites
The best sports website by far. If you like motor racing this is the place for you. News is updated on a regular basis, but the best thing is the weekly magazine on Thursday with top quality articles. The magazine is for subscribers, but the news section is free. The forum is very busy. Best sports website!
2. BBC Sport
One of the best sports resources on the net. Everything you need to know, from Soccer to Snooker. Live scores, articles, team news and quality design. With rss feeds for your team, you never miss a thing.
3. Livescore
Sometimes you need to know what the score is from a game in the Turkey league. Don’t know why, but you need to know… this is the place for you. Any major soccer game from all over the world is tracked live, so you can know the exact results in any minute of the game. They have options for Tennis and Ice-Hockey but they are not as good as the soccer option.
4. NBA.com
If you love Basketball this is the place for you. Long time before Youtube this website offered great video clips from each game. The news and all the stats you will ever need, make it into a very rich content site.
5. Hattrick.org
Warning: If you don’t have spare time, stay away from this website. But if you ever dreamed to be a soccer manager then this is the place for you. You can start a team in a lower division and slowly bring it up to the top. Addictive!
Footballsfuture gives you all the essesinal bits about the NFL, but it is best known for its busy forums. In any moment you will find another 400 Football enthusiastic comment on their teams and games.
7. Espn
The biggest sports website in the world. Covers all the major sports. You can get a bit lost though.
8. Stub Hub -Sport tickets.
With all due respect to HD sport TV, nothing beats watching a game live. Buy tickets to almost every game in the USA.
9. Bet Fair
Need to increase the excitement? Place a bet. The best sports betting site, with the best odds. You can bet on any game around the world. With amazing good interface, betting has never been easier.
10. Grandprix.com
If you need to know who won the Monza GP at 1969 this is the place for you. By far the best history Formula 1 site. You can read about every race since 1950, and about every driver that raced since then. Impressive!
