Hello everyone, I created a directory site for my city. ( it's not online at the moment )

My idea was to create a sort of " guide " where you can find many categories such as restaurants, hotels, disco, lawyers and much much more.

The only problem is this: how can I rank for so much keywords?

Should I try with this, or should I create many directories for each category so that I can rank better?

Let me know what you think because I'm really confused.


Thank you.

    I just think that people underestimate the work it takes to keep it quality. If you are willing to work and edit for quality then start one. If you stick with the quality guidelines that Google, Yahoo, or Bing has laid out then you shouldn't have any problem. Just write unique content and a lot of it. Pages add up and overtime your directory website will flourish, your hard work will payoff. The faster you get moving the faster it will flourish. Research and update frequently and add new content, content that people like to see which will keep your website visitors coming back while at the sametime gaining new unique visitors.

    Thank you for the reply.

    So you think I could go for the big one... right?

    Are you sure that only with the quality and frequent updates I can rank so much keywords?

    I'll start a blog and I will search for some good student who want to write articles.

    Let's see...
