staining a concrete driveway

I am not sure if this is the appropriate forum for my question but here goes. I have a long concrete driveway that is old and has cracks. I think it would add curb appeal if I could apply a colored stain. I would need to do the work myself. This driveway is in the front and is rarely used since most parking is done in back on gravel. I will be pressure washing the concrete first. Has anyone done staining? I am looking at the Quikrete multi surface concrete sealer which can be colored and use a long handled paint roller to do the job. How often will I need to restain and is it worth the time and expense to stain? The concrete is not smooth so I think the stain would adhere to the pores without problems but will the stain flake off in time? I don't want to start something that ends up looking horrible or needs constant maintenance. Thanks for any and all responses.
