Those I know revolve around affiliation, alternate search engines, porn/erotic stuff, niche technological forums and such topics :)
Not by him but in the same kind of idea, here's an example:
http://fastpowertools.com/ http://fastpowertools.com/
A while back I know the owner of this site did a few hundreds $ per month. It was really an eye-opener to me :)
Of course this requires SEO skills to earn more than a few bucks, that need to be learn on the way.
I started a couple of sites like this one, and although I earned a bit of money, I wanted to try sites that are really useful to myself, which I'm focusing on now.
I think it's always good to remind myself that between what would look a half-spammy site to a regular programmer, and the typical too complex projects regular programmers would start, there's a sweet spot in the middle.
- aw3c2 17y agoThat site looks like a shady search engine spam site. I could never earn money like that and feel good about myself.
- thibaut_barrere 17y agoWell, it's a fun experiment per se - but for one it's hard to really get past the few bucks stage here. I do understand what you say, that said. My overall feeling is that these kind of sites are not really "changing the world", if I dare. So now I'm trying to solve real issues I have. It's more fun for me!
- jacquesm 17y agoWhat I wouldn't give for a way to filter all sites like that from search engine results ;)
- thibaut_barrere 17y agoI would pay for that as well :) Do you know of projects that achieve that correctly ? I know about custom google search engines with all the big retail stores removed, for instance.
- nitrogen 17y agoIs there a generic webapp (something like OSCommerce) that can automatically create an affiliate store like the one you linked when supplied with a list of item names or URLs?
- thibaut_barrere 17y agoSearch for "affiliate store script" and I think you should find some.
