Roasting First-Time Directory Builds: Are These Niches Hidden Gems?

Описание: I asked members of my Ship Your Directory community if anyone wanted their website roasted. I picked three brand new directories and gave honest feedback on each one. We’re looking at their on-page SEO, evaluating the niche, spotting blind spots, and digging into the real earning potential.

Some of these are great lead gen plays, others lean more toward long-term display ad revenue. I’ll break down what’s working, what needs improvement, and how each builder can take their site to the next level.

I hope you pick up some ideas and tactics to apply to your own directory.
