You're creating an article directory?

This is how it works with everything....
Starting up massive, long-term projects can be extremely difficult. In all honestly, releasing a program or eBook is much simpler than is starting up any kind of continual maintenance style endeavor.
For instance, I run a proxy topsite that takes tons of promotion, more so than my software, AC Mass Submitter. While they are both profitable, my topsite requires a TON of promotion, whereas with the ACMS, all I have to do is be sure my affiliates are paid and the program is running.
The thing to take away from this however, is persistence. If you start something, finish it. I was getting just 20 people a day coming to the topsite at first, but through persistence and self-motivation, I've increased daily traffic by about 18x. That's nearly 350 people a day. When this number grows, everything grows. The only thing that can make it grow though is hard work and dedication.
Article directories may require a lot of work to start up, but once you get over this "Do I really want to go through with this" stage, you'll be banking.
Finish what you start, I say. Keep going!

You're welcome Nester, before getting started did you do a bunch of research to see what the possibilities are with directories and what the projected outcome could be?

That's a good one. (I hate URLs with "-"s in them.)
What's your progress so far?

First off, you don't need to put hxxp in your URL. It's your URL, and on top of that you've enclosed it within
tags, so the SE's won't spider it anyhow.
That put aside, I'd say focus on your content now. You can change the template as you go to test ad placements and what not.

It's looking good whodi...I would check it back over for some grammar punctuation issues, but besides that it's coming together nicely.

Well when I first bought that domain all I heard about from the gurus was get an article site it will help you with your subscriber list and you have got it made. So I tried a lot of different programs just to see what the best one and easiest one is to use. I am still looking all programs. All suggestions would be appreciated thank you.
