    Hi all,

    I now in planing to create my own niche web directory. But in the same time, i have a plan to build a free articles directory.

    Which one is the 'best' could I start first to make money? Means, if i have articles directory, i can make money by adsense and ads. Also for web directory, i plan to make it paid directory.

    Anyone can suggest some good ideas? ;)

    Paid directory is a terrible idea. There are so many free ones that a paid one stands a little chance.

    Article directories are also very abundant. If you're looking to make quick cash be ready for a long and strenuous journey because it takes a lot of effort to get good at making money through such websites.

    I suggest coming up with an original idea by looking at the unfilled niches.

    Thanks a lot Hexane. Yes, i know that we must take a long journey and must have much of effort.

    So, maybe i'll create my own niche directories. I've some ideas and plan.

    But one more question. If we want to make a paid directory and our site (directory) not have a good PR yet, no high traffics, how can we convince peoples pay us to using our paid directory? :confused:

    Thanks again.

    If you have a directory with a crappy pr then you can't expect people to pay for links. When you get to PR5 and higher then people will start to pay but if you just start a directory no one will pay.

    I suggest starting off free to you get bigger then as time goes just charge more and more. But start low, like $1 for a link.
