@maxklein Would love some feedback on a specific case too. The tax-for-dummies book idea has value, but it doesn't fit into the "optimize for time" strategy you advocate.
For instance, while working in tax law for a number of years, I created an annotated Google Custom Search Engine for my own research purposes.
As evidence that it's an under-served niche, the website where it's published was cited by a UCalifornia Law Library and a number of other related websites as a useful resource for tax research purposes.
Besides adsense, how would you generate income for this?
- maxklein 17y agoI don't really know how ads work, so I've never actually used them. A tax search engine seems to me like an ideal place for affiliate selling of books on tax, and ebooks that other people are selling. You have the terms people are searching for, just match a book to the term and offer to sell to them. Something like that, but I have no idea about the market.
- sabat 17y agoFrom your article: I once made a video hosting website and put 30 ninja videos on it. Adsense money was about $1 a day. From your post above: I don't really know how ads work, so I've never actually used them. Huh? Which one is true?
- maxklein 17y agoUse as in optimised for them and actually made an effort to learn how to make things work with adsense. What I did on the video site was embed the code google gave and that's it. That does not mean I know anything about adsense.
