2. What motivated you to make this directory?

I am an internet marketing expert, but due to health problems, I had to give up my job. You can read about me and my story here. The motivation behind the website is to use my internet marketing / SEO skills to earn a decent living online. With my disease (Multiple Sclerosis) expected to progress with time, I really don’t know what course it takes over the years. I will be able to live peacefully for the rest of my life if this website becomes a success.

3. What inspired you to make this directory?

I own several domains, and run several websites, but never got the time to take them to the ‘next level’. This directory is the result of the brainstorming I do all day long! (Believe me, MSers do a LOT of brainstorming!) Alex Tew of the Million Dollar Homepage is also another inspiration.

Anyone is welcome to get listed at 1MillionBusinesses.

You can even add your business Facebook page to the directory for exposure. If your business has a real presence, you can add your business location with a map.

5. Is this for real?

Of course it is real and I am real too 🙂 There are so many people making a living online, and the idea of making a business directory to earn online is not a new one. I plan to make this directory a huge success with your help!

6. What will you do if you are able to raise $1m?

I have quite a lot of plans that I would love to implement. Apart from using the money for personal use, like buying shoes, clothes and my meds, I will use it to make this world a better place. I am already running a non-profit organization for the welfare for MS (Multiple Sclerosis) patients and hope to achieve a lot more than this. If I am able to raise $1m, I would like to use a chunk of the money to build a state-of-the-art rehabilitation center for MS patients in Pakistan.

We offer several listing types, including Basic listing as well as Enhanced and Featured listings which can get you more exposure. Make sure you follow the Directory Submission Guidelines when adding your listing.

8. How long will the site be online?
