There are a number of reasons why he made no more Rings of Power. First of all, after he created the One, he was revealed as Sauron to the peoples of Middle-earth, so no one would henceforth be willing to accept a Ring of Power from him if he offered. He could not make another ring akin to the One Ring probably because it would have divided too much of his being, aside from the fact that it would probably be utterly useless.
