First they earn Hits for their own site for putting more and more data
on their site.
second on each premium listing on their website they charge a pretty some.. 

and ad programe like smiley central and google adsense.. they makes
pretty much sum.
its around 500$-12000$ for a site having 20000 hits a month

i am also running my own websites and about to make some directories
cuz this business is bvery much profitable.
 for example you can see.

Hello dharmendar-ga,

From the information you've provided it seems as though you have a
good understanding of how the system works.  However, you have related
the information in terms that aren't familiar, unless you already have
some knowledge of the subject.

I would really appreciate it if you could provide more detailed
information about what you have already shared.  I think I have an
idea of what you're talking about, but I just don't know some of the
specifics you refer to.

POINTS:
>>> Earn Hits for their site
>>> Premium listing on their website they charge
>>> Ad programs like Smiley and Google

How does earning hits make money?
Why would someone pay me money to list them?
How do you make money from Smiley and Google?
