As a web host, I personally don't find much use in web hosting directories. It's really about money. The person who pays the most gets a 'visible' position. You're lucky to get 10 clicks a month unless you pay, just like you would pay to advertise on search engines. In directories, there are still the visible few on the main page, which pay large amounts for those positions. Some directories I've seen, you can't even find the "free" listings.
I've found if you don't "claim" to offer unlimited bandwidth, new sign ups are less than if you do. People don't read terms of service when signing up unless they understand the concept of bandwidth usage, and that seems to be few and far between.
Just an opinion of course.
