Very few people use people directories. Most people use search engines
when they are looking for a type of content, but make a few hunts at the
obvious places before resorting to search engines to find a specific
organization.

If I were looking for Tucows, I would look at Tucows.COM before going to
a search engine, and so do most people.

It always has been the lookup of first resort, *when* you know who or
what company you're looking for.
