To build an Online Directory there are different Open Source applications available, Esyndicat is surely among the best. The script has to be paid for but the 75 USD for one license are worth the investment.

IT Outsourcing Asia worked extensively with Esyndicat and is working on a large travel directory of 9 websites (in the future 15) where the Esyndicat Online Directory Software is used as basic framework. The software is developed in the PHP Programming Language what makes that customisations on the PHP Software are easy for every experienced PHP Programmer.
