REASON WHY YOU SHOULD NOT STARTING A NEW ARTICLE DIRECTORY
It seem like article directories already overloaded all around internet sphere and most of it been developed in order to generate income from Google Adsense. Article directories had face a same phenomena just like arcade games site,proxy, forum, directories and social networks. But this time, most of internet entrepreneur found it no easier to market new article directory site because of duplicate article been submitted again and again. So, i can said that to be successful in article directories, internet entrepreneur who really want to make money thru article directory site must have a good unique articles content in their site. So, no wonder people will addicted to your article site if you are able to provide them with a unique content rather than the duplicate contents.
Just like directories site, most of article directories already been abandonment and the rate of abandonment is extremely high. While doing submission for my new articles, I went through a bunch of article directory lists. Although many of these were less than a year old, I found an incredible rate of parked sites, dead sites or sites that were no longer directories. I am talking about hundreds and hundreds of dead article directories. So, is that shown the dead of article directories ? I’m not sure since most of it been abandonment even after 3 months from their birth.
I’m not just talking about anyone else, it happen to myself also. I got one article directory already been expired last 2 months, to be honest I’m not abandonment that article directory just because it’s not profitable or else. But, i forgot the password and already ruin with the coding and the site is too weird and I’m totally zero on coding it theme. So, im decided to make a new interface and once again I’m “killed” this good article directory. Gosh, so don’t ever asked me about coding or you will ended lost your awesome site in my hand.
I’m not an expert on any type of directories site but my advice for anyone wanting to start a new one is to try something else, maybe a niche directory.

yes, that right but not the page rank for this blog. My personal blog had decrease from PR3 to PR2, im totally sad on this issue since i love number 3 rather than 2. I don’t care about selling a text link or what, but that personal blog had visitor increase about 100% from previous months. Im not doing any illegal or blackhat method to increase the visitor. Just published a good content and give a good comment at other’s blog. It was a personal blog so i don’t aimed much on monetize that blog.
Luckily all the pain gone and been paid by few of my other site. My 3 weeks site had get PR2 and surely because of traffic from search engine is greater for that site. Im still not marketing that site yet, this is due to i got no time this few months. Im losing my title as internet entrepreneur when im deactivated my online activities. Im sorry to all my friend who give me a lot of opportunity and also help me to build up my skill and knowledge. This month im really busy helping my sister develop her company. Then, i need to move to new rent house this end of month. This new house just 15 minute from my office compare to 45 minute from my current house.
I got no plan for this next month since im really busy helping my sister. I hope by end of April all messing up will be settle down and i can be internet entrepreneur again. Luckily this month im eligible for my 1st google adsense payment..Yup, after more than a year registered as google adsense publisher im able to harvest my 1st income from google adsense. kudos to me.
