How many directories should I have?

    I always think I should only have one directory and boost it to PR6 or more.But recently many people tend to own several directories.
    So do you think I should have several directories and how many directories I should have?

    Can you handle the workload, got time/effort, love/pashion and lots of Mountain Dew and Doritos in stock? If you say YES! then go build another.

    Why have billions when you could have millions.... :)

    Even working full time I find managing 1 quality directory is hard.

    Cookie Cutter directories you could have 10-50-100-1,000 you chose the number...

    i believe you can have as many as you want...but my rule is that i only work on 1 at a time and make it as best as i can. once its up to my standard, basicly grows ans sustains it on its own, making money as well, i then move on to another.

    sum up: have as many as you like...but work on only 1 at a time if you want to be successfull.

    :D

    The problem I see sooner or later “Cookie Cutter directories” will get slaughtered, probably no PR, no cache or all supplemental, or a combination of this.

    It’s just a question of time, then revenue over, but you can make a nice profit till this happens, and then dump it to the next poor soul.

    I think if you have some ideal domain names It is better to start directories on them.

    It remain me about blogger farm. People build blog with autocontent from rss or private label article, and get revenue from adsense. It's not a bad idea. But maintain a single directory alone is not easy.

    I'm planning to have 5 general directories and several niche websites to drive traffic. Just like v7n directory strategy (thanks for directory-owner for great interview).

    lol, funny you mention that since that describes my daily routine :p Only I drink water and orange juice instead of soda now since spending 15 hours per day coding and advertising has negative health effects on the body.
