    I think you should try search function.

    directory web gave you more than money from adsense.

    Web directories just make you an easy $ or two. They are easy to run and don't take many resources.

    Very true, I do know 1 guy who makes about £1000 per month in adsense from his directory, but this directory does get lot's of traffic from the general public and is definitely an exception to the rule.

    Re-writing every description (keeping the content unique), avoiding supplemental indexing and getting a directory to rank is far from easy.

    I run it the lazy way. If they want to pay $30 for their crappy ass description let them have it. Who cares about unique content. You are far from being penalized for duplicate content. You will have to nick like 90% of the page to get onto the danger area. You avoid supplemental by SEO. Buy a few links, whack a few links on your network, spread the word around and you are done.

    That's one way of looking at it I suppose, I do take my directory very seriously though and I make hard work out of it. I just think if they have a duplicate description there is more chance of the detail page going supplemental and less traffic for my directory.
