Strong Points: Good organization
Weak Points: A lot of advertising

Summary:
Ok, this doesn’t sound like the most exciting title in Web Space, but how much of an attraction is a site’s title to visitors? What matters in the end is the usefulness that a site provides to its users. Though Chemical Industries manufacturer Directory probably won’t attract visitors by its title, those whose work involves chemicals will probably bookmark it as it is a chemist’s dream site. Were else can one find suppliers of obscure chemicals listed alphabetically by their topic heading? Looking for a supplier of Jet Oils, Jojo Butter, or Juniper Berry Oil? Click on J. The upside of the site is its great organization, but its downside is that it knows the value of advertisers a bit too well: Advertisements abound. However, if you don’t stop reading the newspaper because of ads, then you probably wont mind the similar annoyance at this site either.
