A web directory or link directory is an online list or catalog of websites.

That is, it is a directory on the World Wide Web of (all or part of) the World Wide Web.

Historically, directories typically listed entries on people or businesses, and their contact information; such directories are still in use today.

A web directory includes entries about websites, including links to those websites, organized into categories and subcategories.

Besides a link, each entry may include the title of the website, and a description of its contents.

In most web directories, the entries are about whole websites, rather than individual pages within them (called "deep links").

Websites are often limited to inclusion in only a few categories.
