Frequently asked

What is Observer88?

Observer88 is a web directory — a classified register of operational websites organised into 22 subject sections. It functions as a reference archive for navigating a documented cross-section of the working web. The register currently holds 858 catalogued entries.

Is it free to list my site?

Yes. Filing a site with Observer88 costs nothing. Complete the Add a Site form with your URL and the relevant section, and the submission will be reviewed. There are no fees at any stage of the process.

How are sites organised?

Sites are placed into one of 22 classified sections based on their primary subject area — from Clinical Observations & Health and Games & Wagers to Journeys & Expeditions and Instruments & Computing. Sites that do not fit neatly into a named section are held in the Uncategorised Specimens register.

How do I submit a site?

Use the Add a Site page, accessible from the navigation. Provide a working URL and select the section that best describes your site. Observer88 will review the submission and, if the site is operational and fits a section, it will be filed into the archive.

How long does review take?

Most submissions are processed within a few days. Sites that are clearly active and well-matched to a section move through review quickly. Observer88 does not publish estimated timelines, but the process is typically straightforward for sites with a defined subject area.

Does Observer88 cover all countries?

Yes. Observer88 is not geographically restricted. The archive contains entries from multiple countries, and submissions from any active site — regardless of location — are accepted provided the site fits within one of the 22 classified sections.

Can I update my listing after it has been filed?

There is no self-service update function at present. If your site has changed address or the listed details are no longer accurate, contact Observer88 through the site and the entry will be reviewed for amendment. The archive is maintained as an accurate record where possible.

About the Observer88 Directory

Observer88 is a web directory maintained as a classified register of operational sites. The archive currently holds 858 catalogued entries, organised across 22 subject sections from Clinical Observations & Health to Games & Wagers, Instruments & Computing to Journeys & Expeditions. Each entry represents a site logged after basic verification of availability and placed in the appropriate section by primary subject. Observer88 does not rank, rate, or editorially assess the sites it holds — the register functions as a neutral archive, not a recommendation engine. The catalogue accepts submissions: site owners operating in any of the 22 sections can file a listing through the Add a Site process. The index is updated on a rolling basis as new specimens are verified and filed into the appropriate section of the register.
