A niche or general directory?

New directory owners often start with a general web directory instead of a niche directory. The reason is simple: the popularity of a generalised directory is obvious. There is no doubt that a general web directory like Emporium Directory would grow faster than a niche directory. Maintaining a niche directory is just too much work. The directory is certainly growing and already I have two other directories (one is a free directory and the other is a bidding web directory) under my stable but I am starting to think about what will happen if the links like Houston plastic surgeon submitted becomes outdated and the web pages change.

However, you might get more specific visitors and advertisers if you run a niche directory.

Perhaps it would be an idea to turn Emporium Directory into an annual paid directory for featured links and set the links to auto-expire after a year.
