    I was just excited to know what is every other directory owner is making here though an approximate figure.

    Post here what is the revenue you are generating approximately after removing the expenses like buying links, banner advertising, PPC, Your own salary etc

    Also make your vote in the poll too.

    3-5k zone from gii may be high in future but all of this goes back in long term promotions as i dont believe in making quick directories and selling them after couple months.

    I made 155$ last month.
    Aiming at 250$ for June.
    My directory is 3 months old with a PR 3.
    I am promoting it heavily, and add new features regularly.
    I have big plans for it. Soon you will see...:):)

    Between 100 and 500 but it costs me more in overheads, good for tax though.

    Just imagine though if the taxman really was watching these threads they could make a mint from people bragging how much they made thinking they are untouchable. If you don't pay tax dont say you earn, if you do it legit then say what you want. ;)

    Me, I never saw earned anything officer honest I never. :D

    I'm not bragging (100-500 is nothing to brag about anyway), just telling it like it is, I couldn't care less about taxman as I run at a loss, I even got audited one year, taxman visited my house and gave me the thumbs up. :eek:

    Never said it was any one specific searchbuster? I meant in general. Wouldn't matter a squat if you run at a loss or profit, if its taxable its taxable simple as. And no, 100-500 is nothing to brag about even though its 100-500 more than me. :)

    You can easily make $500 per month if you promote your directory well. if you are in top 10 directories list, you can easily earn more than $1000 per month. If you are in top 5 you can reach almost $10k monthly. This is my prediction :) ;)

    If your deductions offset the income to the point you make no profit why would you pay tax?

    I was just joking. I am not into this directory business (yet....), I have around 8-10 directories, but they are just sitting there not making anything at all.

    My niche is different. :)
