    Hi,
    How much content do I need in order to be approved by the most directorys?
    Do I need a dull blown site, or do you also accept mini-sites with 1-5 pages ?

    mini-sites with 1-5 pages I dont like especially if they have a lot of links and google ads, as long as you have unique content, and a well formatted layout then I would accept.

    I think most of the paid directories will accept them (unless they are porn/gambling/pharmacy sites)

    You need to have a site with good content and not an MFA site
    Most Directories have submittal guidelines on the site

    I know that directory owners are looking for big , quality sites with superb layout, preferably with no adsense ads on it. But that's not the question. I remember having a site submitted to 50 directorys with only 1 approval . But it was butt ugly with big ads on it.

    More opinions?

    think the most important thing is your site must be able to convince directories that it is a serious site, made with effort and with potential for growth and sustainance. There must be some minimum amount of content at least to demonstrate the above points. But i think there is no definite answer like min of 5 pages, etc. Just ask yourself this question, 'does this site look like it offers quality content to visitors and will continue to grow?'

    my 2 cents.....

    As a directory owner, I look for original content, well designed pages, and few to no ads. If there is a lot of white space between the content where a Adsense or Yahoo ad would just fit, it doesn't get in.

    I made a specific category with subs for my directory where "Adsense Content" sites can get added. Unfortunately, most people who submit those don't use it. Too bad.

    Most of the small sites I see are doorway pages funneling traffic to other sites, duplicated content (like ebooks), or sites with more ads than content.

    However, once in a while a simple "Mom & Pop" site shows up that is advertising a small business and just don't have the resources for a huge site --- those I accept. :)
