+ Submit your siteVellum is a web directory — a catalogued list of active sites organised across 22 subject sections. It is maintained as a reference work in the tradition of a printed gazetteer: plain, organised, and free of editorial ranking.
Yes. Submission and listing in Vellum are free of charge. There is no subscription, placement fee, or renewal cost. Any operator with an active, accessible site may apply via the add form.
Sites are grouped into 22 subject sections — from Gaming Parlours and Commerce & Finance to Voyages & Tours and General Register. When you submit, you select the section that best fits your site. Editors review the placement before approving.
Use the Add Your Site form linked in the directory. Provide your URL, a short description, and select the most relevant category. Submissions are reviewed and, if the site is active and fits the directory, added to the appropriate section.
Most submissions are reviewed within a few days. You do not need to register an account or follow up — if your site meets the criteria, it will appear in the directory without further action on your part.
Yes. Each site should be submitted individually via the add form, selecting the appropriate category for each. There is no limit on the number of sites an operator may submit, provided each has a distinct, active domain.
Vellum lists sites from a wide range of sectors — health, legal, finance, travel, technology, food, construction, and more. The directory reflects the web as it actually is rather than as any editorial preference would have it. Sites must have an active domain and a clearly defined subject.
Listings are reviewed periodically. If a domain becomes inactive or the site ceases to operate, the entry may be removed from the directory. Operators are not notified of removal, but may resubmit if the site returns to active status.
Vellum is a web directory organised in the manner of a classical gazetteer: 826 catalogued sites across 22 sections, each entry verified and held to a single active domain. The directory spans the breadth of commercial and informational web activity, from dental practices and law firms to gaming operators and technology vendors. Sections are arranged by subject rather than by geography, but the gazetteer's principles hold — each entry is what it is, recorded plainly. Vellum does not rank, endorse, or editorialise beyond the act of listing. Those who use it find a reference rather than a recommendation. Submission is open: any active site may apply for inclusion via the directory's add form.
