There was a similar post on sitepoint. I thought it'd be interesting to know what peoples aims are in these here parts :)

I hope to churn out a few more sites and make at least $1.5k a month. Basically, I wanna make enough to be able to live off my sites :) I'm gonna try and break into the affiliate side of things as my sites are all AdSense only, at the moment...

By this time next year I hope to be earning around £500 - £1000p/m. I'm earning around £100 a month at the moment.

You'll do it no problem if you keep working at the same rate. Just create 5 new sites that perform the same and you've achieved your target :)

I hope you'll even exceed your expectations. It would be great if everyone here done really well. Success enjoyed all round would speak volumes for this site too!

I need to open a Spring Break site that is almost done. I need to create a second ecommerce site. I have a couple other site ideas as well.

Good luck to you as well chromate:)

I hope to open a UK travel site soon. I got quite a few detailed reviews already, so everything should be completed by the end of January I hope.

Cheers Mike.

I would LOVE to do an ecommerce site in 2004. In fact, I may make that one of my objectives. :) Need to raise some funds first though.

emke
12-18-2003, 01:20 PM
By this time next year I'll have at least 10 web sites (currently 3) and make about $2 000/month.

At least I hope so... :D

Mike
12-18-2003, 02:34 PM
Oh I would love to run an ecommerce site as well chromate. Got a few ideas, but can't really afford it at the moment:)

I think this site will help achieve a lot of goals though.

My goal is $300 a month, and produce at least 1 sucessful website per month.

Currently 7. (working on making them all profitable)

chromate
12-19-2003, 04:24 AM
I'm surprised you're not making more than $300 a month already.

Shawn
12-19-2003, 09:13 AM
Yeah, that comes as a shock to me too.

Hell man, I'm making multiples more than that with Wireless Phone Reviews alone. The first month my site was up (not in search engines) I made most almost that much.

Work on quality, not quantity. Don't just pump out sites left and right.

Mike
12-19-2003, 10:14 AM
Shawn, are the CPC rates good for wireless phone reviews?

Westech
12-19-2003, 10:16 AM
My goals are to finish all of the plans I have for NSUforum.com and start promoting it, publish at least one of the other ideas I have rolling around in my head, and finish my hosting website. (I started a webhosting business a little over a year ago and have a good number of customers through word of mouth, but I've been so busy with other things that I've never finished up the webiste for it! I know it's pretty silly, a hosting business without a website!)

Shawn, where were your visitors coming from if not from search engines?

chromate
12-19-2003, 10:17 AM
I would imagine they would be v. good.

Didn't think you'd quite be making multiples of $300 though -- nice going! :) heh

Shawn
12-19-2003, 10:28 AM
Westech, I said the *first* month my site was up I wasn't in search engines.

I won't comment on the CPC, but the sheer amount of traffic is what is earning me the money. You won't believe the amount of visitors I've been getting, for a 2 month old site.

How many uniques are you getting now Shawn?

Mike
12-19-2003, 11:37 AM
Yeh, how many if you don't mind answering Shawn?

Also about the CPC. What I meant to ask, is it a lot (such as travel, loans etc)?

Shawn
12-19-2003, 03:48 PM
It's not up there with travel or loans, but it's a good chunk. PM me if you want more info.

Traffic this month so far is about 10,000 unique visitors for Wireless Phone Reviews, pretty good considering a 2 month old site with very few pages (like 75) and no advertising. My PR6 isn't even in consideration with the search engines (since Google hasn't updated the SERPs with the new PR).

Imagine this thing in 6 months.

Mike
12-19-2003, 04:23 PM
Around 500 uniques a day already is quite amazing. I've pm'd you by the way Shawn.

Wow 10k already this month! Like you say, for a 2 month old site, that's extremely good.

Do most of your visitors enter through your 75 different sub-pages or is the majority through your home page?

I'd like to work on greatly expanding my sites and then work on popping a couple more out. I'd like to triple the amount per month I am currently making by next December.

Like most in this thread Im looking to (within the next couple of years) live off the revenue from sites I own :D

At the moment just got the one site but its doing very well traffic wise, been averaging 5000 - 6000 uniques (15 - 18k page views) a day for this year which cover's the rent and keeps me in beer/ingredients for Thai Chicken :)

Been researching a finance site for the past couple of months (not all the time ;-) hoping to get a working version setup over Christmas.

Chromate, about 20% of traffic enters through my homepage.

Not many know this, but I've only been website publishing (producing sites for myself) for less than 3 months. It all started here: http://www.sitepointforums.com/showthread.php?p=934126#post934126


Chris is the sole reason I am on the track I am today. He's showed me some errors with my site in the past, some that I didn't like, a couple I even called him a douchebag (not to his face) for even suggesting. But, eventually, I made all the changes he's ever suggested and created my website using the knowledge from this site. And only this site.

I'm going to be very successful because of Chris and I think many others can be as well. Unless you are physically disabled and are not able to type on a keyboard, you are able to make as much, if not more money, than Chris or anybody else for that matter. All that matters is how much you want it. If you're willing work for it, you can get as much money as you want. Period.

At the very least, everyone can damn sure hit the goals they posted in this thread of a small $500-$3,000 a month.

I know I will -- and very soon at that.

It wouldn't surprise me if you achieve that, or achieve something even better.

Well... it's sounding like an ecommerce year ahead then for a lot of us then. Now, if we can just get those funds together to kick it off! If only I didn't have so much on my credit card already. :)

I'm getting £5 an hour for an Niche Timbers online shop making + 10% of the online shops profits, so that should help me get towards the amount I need as they only started in September but did about $40,000 of business last month...

I remember reading that post well. I was feeling exactly the same at the time. That last post vialli made:



Another rapidly expanding market is Mobile Content.


Was that what made you decide to do wireless phone reviews?

How the hell...? Can you handle us your secrets?



Your publishing aims for 2004?

As to that, I would like to start with getting around 400$ / month, and after that maybe reach the 1k or above... AND, it would be extremely nice to have PR7 or above on the home page and PR5 (now have 4) or above on the inside pages.
Not so high demands, I don't want to be disappointed... If I see I'm getting to my targets I'll set them higher though. :D :cool:


Yesterday my pal and I made a decision to start a new version, number 3 of our site, after reading most (havn't finished yet) of Chris' wonderful articles - Our current version just doesn't have anough SE support and in general not comfort and simple enough. I'll tell more after I tell that to my own users on my site... :eek: :cool:

That's either loans, hosting, medicine or travel then:)

I'm making a travel one at the moment.

Whatever, on any topic - How can one get $5 to $30 per CLICK?

Think big. Much bigger than loans, travel, the usual.

Now I see why at least one of us has a debt management site


I've had one in the works for ages. I just never get around to finishing it. In fact, I've just realised I have 5 incomplete sites. I don't know what it is, but I seem to lose enthusiasm for them once I get to a certain point :/ To pull this thread back on topic, I think I'll make that another one of my objectives for 2004... complete all my half-complete sites! lol

Where did you get those figures? AdWords account? I've not used it yet myself. Looks like it could be useful though.

I've got something to add to my 2004 objectives. To have an Debt Management Guide site up with google adwords on it...

I was going to do something like that, but for one I didn't know what to put on it, and two it would be too hard to get traffic through search engines.

That's partly why I lost interest in completing mine. Traffic would be low due to the big "debt consolidation" companies occupying the top spots. However, with high CPC rates, you probably wouldn't need *too* much traffic to make it worth while. There're so many people with debt problems, it may even be worth looking at offline marketing. If the site offers decent content, then you could leave leaflets in Citizens Advice Bureau etc. :)

Ooooo... here comes another objective for 2004. Create a site that's not dependant on search engine rankings for traffic. Wouldn't it be nice to be free of having to worry about google updates, PR and getting backlinks! Yes. Definitely. I want a site I can market offline for 2004. Hmmmmmm...

incka

The £4.50 average was for the USA.

It is £14 average in the UK per click.

Someone is registering a domain tonight... And it is so keyword rich and rememerable im surprised only the .com had currently gone...

Mike
12-21-2003, 08:53 AM
I think loans.com was sold for £3M a bit ago. That's how competitive the market is.

Also incka, do you mean you are registering a loans domain?
There's loads out there like loan-guide.info etc.

incka
12-21-2003, 09:47 AM
No.

A debt management .co.uk domain aimed for the UK market because the UK market gets 3 times what the US market gets on Debt Management google adwords and because I live in the UK.

Shawn
12-21-2003, 12:11 PM
Okay, I'll be more specific.

Think more of the lines of $400 million -- think of people who make hundreds if not thousands of dollars an hour -- those are the people who can afford to pay several dollars per click.

I'll release the site to everyone in a couple of days.

Lottery winners :-P

OK, I'm giving up, never thought about that kind of rich people lol...

Hey, what do you know, maybe your advertisers are gungsters? :-P kiddin'.

In my area? The Pizza guy I suppose, maybe some lawyers and some stock-sellers. And remember the topic of this thread - I hope that till the end of 2004 I'll be one of the richest people in my area ;-)

Shawn
12-21-2003, 01:27 PM
Ronny is the closest so far.

Solicitors?

Ronny
12-21-2003, 01:30 PM
I hope that I was the closest just in my last post, because I offered Pizza, gangsters, terrorists, lottery winners... :-P

So, it is or something to do with courts - lawyers, big cases, something like that, or something about stocks (Somebody brought it up before so i don't think that this is the thing).

I'm not making any more gusses now. Time for the answer...

12-21-2003, 02:22 PM
It murmurs... Some people post hundreds of time in a row there... It's having a bad effect on me... BTW: I'm in the murmurs top 50 users now :)

On my Debt Relief Site - I've finnished the design, and I'm now considering the content. I will warn you in advance that it looks quite a bit like one of Shawn Weeks sites and abit like some of Chris' sites... It does not look identical though, Shawns sites all have certain promonent elements that mine does not. And it is only similar to Chris' sites in small ways...

I can't wait to start writing the content... I think this site will be a good one to use offline marketing on, as already had been suggested, leaflerts in citizens advice bueros...

Wrigh_g doesn't post anymore but he still reads... But don't worry, he is more intersted in learning programming languages than actually making sites... He hasn't even got a domain...

I've found another use with a debt site... But it isn't fully made... http://www.debtmanagement101.com I think it was... Not very well designed and only a line of comtent for each thing, so I think that was a 'future project' for that person...

That's even worse. Shawn's told us that it's going to make loads, so that means that your going to copy it?

incka
12-22-2003, 05:37 AM
I meant I won't copy a site if someone's told me about it. I may see someone has site that is similar to one I already had plans for and not stop my plans, but I won't make plans for sites based on other peoples sites on here.

Shawn
12-22-2003, 05:38 AM
I don't mind having competition -- if I did, I wouldn't announce the site. I will just make sure I will be able to beat the competition before I release the site to all you guys.

I should release the site within a few hours.

incka
12-22-2003, 05:42 AM
I am abit interested in making a site about starting a business, but that is obviously not what Shawn's is, because he said $400 million, and that what established businesses have...

I respect you for that, Mike, and I wholeheartedly agree. My sense of honor prevents me from jumping on the great ideas that I see floating around in here.

Example: I've been trying to think up site topics with high revenue potential and relatively low competition that I actually have some knowledge of (makes writing content much easier! :) )
I see Shawn's wireless phone reviews site, and think "*doh* I used to work in the wireless industry! Wireless phone reviews is such a great keyword phrase! Look at all the money he's making in such a short time! I could have done that. Why didn't I think of that? Part of me wants to grab his idea and run with it. But like Mike and I'm sure most members here, I can't bring myself to do it.

Oh well, I think, What other niches are out there that interest me and I have a good knowledge of? Still thinking... Oh well, I'll go kill some time on websitepublisher.net while I'm thinking... Then I see a new site in Shawn's signature -- satellite TV! :eek: Now that's off limits too! Too bad I didn't think of it first. I have a feeling the whole vicious cycle is going to repeat itself once he announces his new site... :rolleyes:

So once I go public on here with my great ideas none of you had better try to steal them!

incka
12-22-2003, 09:12 AM
I'll think of some for you...

How about widescreen tvs?

Expensive wires for hi-fis?

Portable Grils?

DVD-Writers?

DVD Players That Can Write DVDs From TV?

Feel free to use my ideas on the condition that I can use them too.

To answer the original thread topic: I hope to expand on my Amazon Web Services offerings, both in my sites and expanding the functionality of the application behind it. Later next year I want to tackle a full ecommerce site.

Now back to Shawn's Super Secret Blockbuster Site That Will Make Webmasters Weep thread... :)

Shawn
12-22-2003, 11:22 AM
I'm still working on it. Hopefully it'll be out today.

GCT, maybe you could offer a service to other webmasters for setting up Amazon Web Services -- you could give sites that you've setup as a reference (I wouldn't mind). You could make some good money there.

We just love hyping things up. It's the nature of website publishing enterprenurs...

A Quick Question:

Do you feel www.debtmanagementguide.co.uk is a good name for my Debt Management site?

chromate
12-22-2003, 01:20 PM
Referring to the "stealing ideas" thread... I agree. I would never take someone else's idea from here. The great thing about Website Publisher is that we all support one another's ventures. Competing with someone from here would just be going too much against the grain and would kill all motivation anyway.

For instance, how I would love to create a coupon site. It's an affiliate dream purely because you know the users are looking to buy something. It's totally out of the question though as it would be like trying to stab Chris in the back. Though, I'm sure he'd pull a CB Sword and behead me before I even got close anyway (and rightly so) :)

It's the people that don't make any posts that I worry about, because I can't judge their characters.

Now then... I think this thread should be split into two separate threads. "Your publishing aims for 2004" and "Shawn's Monster Site." Chris? lol

Mike
12-22-2003, 02:36 PM
Ok, I haven't posted in here for a while so I'll post my views;)

Copying Ideas - I have two ideas at the moment. If anyone out of the blue launches a site on either topic I will carry on with them. No matter what anyone else would think, I would know that I had that idea, so I wasn't "stealing" so to speak. I would never copy someone elses site though. I agree about the coupons site chromate, I would like to do one but as you said, it's like stabbing Chris in the back:)

incka - Like the design. Not that much like Shawn's, just the logo and menu.

BBC - The good thing about the beeb is that they do allow you to reproduce their content on your own site. Email them and all they ask is for a link in return on the actual article. Good stuff if you ask me.

Shawn - HURRY UP AND TELL US WHAT YOUR IDEA IS!

There. That's everything:)

Suggestion: Use wordtracker.com to find the keyword terms with the highest KEI. Then register a domain with those keywords and optimize for those keywords. Loans and debt consilidation are extremely competitive terms and you'll get slaughtered if you don't find a niche in that area with less competition.

Actually, now that I look at it there isn't much competition for debt management guide. The top site in google is a PR 4. If there are a decent number of searches for those terms you may have a winner there.

incka
12-22-2003, 02:57 PM
There is enough to make a decent amount (I.E. £1000 a day if all the searchers go to my site and click the highest google ad on the pages which are optomosed to the keywords of debt loans...)

debt management guide is not searched much you know, five times according to wordtracker. i wouldn't call it a decent amount.

something like debt consolidation would be better. searched over 4000 times according to wordtracker, and the top rank is a PR5 with others around being PR6. not that bad considering how much you could make from it.

chromate
12-22-2003, 03:30 PM
Yeah, searches on "debt management guide" are pretty few in number. Debt management would probably be your primary keyword phrase. You should at least get on the first page with that (if you work at it a bit). $1k a DAY is no way a realistic expectation though.

How do you find out the 'value' (ie, CPC value) of keywords? I see Overture mentioned - do you need to be one of their publishers or advertisers to see this?

Mike
12-24-2003, 07:41 AM
You can see roughly by using adwords. Just following the steps to signing up, which includes choosing keywords.

incka
12-24-2003, 07:48 AM
It can be misleading though, as you could search for debt loans, while the google adsense targets the ads on your page to debt management, and therefore you have a different amount of commision... Do overture have a thing like adsense?

Westech
12-24-2003, 08:17 AM
http://uv.bidtool.overture.com/d/USm/search/tools/bidtool/?Keywords/

Of course overture bids won't necissarily be identical to what adwords pays for the same terms.

lo0ol

Great link, Westech. I was wondering where I could get that info as well. It won't be what AdWords advertisers pay, but it should give an accruate comparison.

Westech
12-24-2003, 12:23 PM
And just in case anyone doesn't have it, you can check keyword popularity at http://inventory.overture.com. Wordtracker is probably more accurate, but I think overture is good to get a quick estimate or compare one word against another without going through all the crap that wordtracker makes you go through.

12-24-2003, 02:00 PM
Wordtracker's great if your sites going for a global reach but I wouldn't recommend it for country specific (UK and europe) keyword popularity.

Yes but you need a large amount of traffic (sites generating more than 1 million Web searches a month) searching your site to be considered for their Partners Program.

MarkB
12-27-2003, 09:14 AM
You would need a LOT of money for a cd shop. The minimum order that most labels and distros requires is enough to kill most plans (they killed mine), particularly if you want enough stock to compete with the big boys.

It depended on the label or distributor. Some have no minimums. Some have £50 per order.

Some have minimum 20 units per order.

While some have minimum £1000 per month to maintain your account.

You could focus on getting small label releases unavailable in the UK except through expensive import - but then you'd really have to target a niche (like Nordic Goth or something).

I wasn't planning on doing a niche... (I use that word so much because my dads company is called Niche Timbers)

My goal is to get over $4000/month revenue by Spring Break.

Right now Im doing about 2k.

My fastest growing site is my CellPhoneReviews.net Site. So far about 8000 uniques this month, on pace to make about $400 with adsense and Tribalfusion this month. Need to add amazon to that site somehow :D

I think I read somone in this thread say, don't just pump out sites, and instead put effort into them. Thats exaclty what Ive been doing and it's paying off. Ive never made good money off something Ive created in a day but have made good money with stuff made over several weeks.

To get music-videos.ws online with 1000+ music videos and getting over 10,000 unique vistors a day by the end of the year.

To set up a network of personal finance and law sites which ties in with my Debt Management Guide site.

To open at least one amazon store.

To open either an ecommerce store or to set up an online poster store on cafepress.

To set up the music video site and several others including an ecommerse site. To make by the end of the year £1k per month.


Well I've met the £1k per month thing. The music video site won't be done this year. E-commerce site will probably be started early next year. I suppose it was the financial target that I really wanted to hit, and I've hit it with ease 6 months into the 12 month... (June was the month I got £1k)

My plan this year was to make my old music site generate enough income to make me self-employed. But with the niche it was in, that wasn't possible - so I sold it.

Since the beginning of June my plan's been to generate $100+ a month in non-Adsense income. I think I'll make target this month :)

My other major plan is to (finally!) launche my 'community consultancy' service, which will basically be helping people brainstorm community ideas for their new or established sites, and give them a framework from which to build a unique online community. Should be fun :)

I easily hit my original target of $1.5k a month. Not so sure if I'll be able to hit the target of having an ecommerce site by the end of the year though. I just think it will be too hard to make anything work being in the UK and using normal SEO for marketing. Problem is, I have no experience in any other form of marketing and shipping to the US will reduce profit margins down to a prohibitory level.

Chromate - I want to start an ecommerce site too, but most customers are in the US, so it will be expensive to ship there, and there is no way I am going to go live in that country...

My goal is $1000/month by the end of this year... I am making less than 10% of that now :)

Hope to meet some people on these forums I can work with to help meet my goal.

You guys aren't thinking outside the box ;) There is one key, huge market here in the UK that other countries don't necessarily have (at least not in such numbers, or in such a concentrated area).

I'm sure it has a market in the US, but geographically it might be more spread out...

You guys are looking at things the wrong way.

Sure, the US is a huge market, but Europe is a big market too. I get people from Europe emailing me all the time complaining about how much it costs to ship to them.

So who says you can't be successful with just a european or UK ecommerce site?

Well, I guess it's just harder. However, one of my targets for 2004 was to have a site that didn't rely on search engine traffic to be profitable. A UK / europe based ecommerce site would be perfect to publicize in targeted offline publications. I could hit both targets with one site here. :)

Yeah, I think I will just do a UK ecommerce site, advertising offline. It's not going to be until next year when I start anyway.

Still, I haven't thought of anything to sell yet :)

I actually have a few ideas for things that would do well online in the UK and EU, however because they will also do well in the US I worry I will be loosing alot of potential customers who can't afford shipping.

Is charging for content classed as e-commerce? Because I hope soon to do that...

MarkB

Selling anything online is e-commerce. It's 'electronic commerce', innit?;)

intelliot
07-24-2004, 03:32 PM
But you're not really selling the content, per se -- you're probably selling 'access' to it:)

Ah, yes. Access... Mmm... Freshly entered SQL database... Mmm... Tasty...

My plans are to learn server sockets and create massive multiplayer rpg game like runescape but in flash and diffrent than just fighting and stuff, I can make the game single player but not multiplayer yet so Im learning server sockets to make it multiplayer, but the bad thing about sockets servers are that they are really costly the one Im learning right now is $3000, so I was also creating a game website for sometime which I put on hold to learn socket servers, once my site is up I hope to make the 3k to buy the socket server, but for now Im going to learn socket servers, and create the game.

I don't know about socket servers, but you don't need anything fancy to run a MUD text based game. You can find code for one that is only about a page long and then the client can use telnet.

Telnet? Its like a remote login system (at least, thats what I used it for at uni), more here: http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/T/Telnet.html

Those multiplayer games get boring with 2 seconds... Can't make any money on them...

I have to disagree multiplayer online games can make alot money, which is why there's like a new company making multiplayer games every 2 weeks or so.

MUDs offer much more flexibility than graphical MMORPGS

For what its worth there's several good socket sever solutions for Flash you can use with multiplayer games.

junglewar: vietcong and battle for the sudan were a couple of great examples both now closed but at the time where very popular, in vietcong's case - thousands of users online at a time.

As far as how to make money with Flash multiplayer games it wouldn't be difficult, your biggest concern would be how to setup your site/server to cope with the traffic.

If you're able to make high-quality flash games, then offer your services to sites to make branded games just for their audiences.
