I'd think some good ideas would be use API's/WebScraping and build fresh content stuff like Wallpaper sites, or Movie Reviews/Ticket Ordering Sites -- sure there's tons of showtime/movie sites -- but if you can get even a small marketshare in google searches - you can earn a couple hundred a month.
You also could aggregate content from reddit subs into a site, or clone ThisIsWhyImBroke.com -- but automate it via scraper/etc... and focus your effort more on marketing using social media. In that case make money off affiliate commissions.
You also could write a course for everything to do with Wordpress --from setting up a domain to finding a host, etc---and promote your own hosting service in the book -- signup as a reseller for hosting services and start a small hosting business. Too many clients is obviously a drain on time/resources to provide support but 100-1000 clients could bring in 3k per month and take roughly 9-10 hours per week to support, and you can even hire someone to help with that on a part-time basis. If you only do support via ticket you'll save time as well. -- This was actually my plan, but I've been working too hard at my day-job to focus much energy on this.

- mtrycz 10y agoI think you are correct, and that GP is also right. No product will sell without good SEO.
- Xiol 10y agoBut if it's making you money, do you really care?
- richrichardsson 10y agoIf you have no morals, no.
- gremlinsinc 10y agoIf it's open data from api's what's the issue? There's tons of movie databases for example, and some wallpaper sites have API's as well.
- wordpressdev 10y agoWeb Scraping is a good idea, especially when you scrap open data / APIs. I have considered several ideas so far but haven't been able to launch as yet. Analysis paralysis, I guess. I was into web hosting business for sometime but had to wind up due to increasing demands by the customers.
