Why have you failed? Have you ever been part of a successful business in action? Have you ever had to sell stuff? Have you ever had to deliver something on time for someone else?
Have you ever dealt with "ordinary people" and their requirements on a web site? Did you do extensive A/B testing?
Why did you shut down the other sites - were they a time sink? Why not keep them ticking over? Did you get any money at all? Did you have any customers at all?
These are questions you need to ask yourself. You've not given us enough information to even advise you.
- iuhizoov 16y agoThis might sound insane but my first startup was actually the first time i ever built something for people to use. I made mistakes like overloading the site with tons of features, thinking they will attract users, adopted a build-it-and-they-will-come mentality and holed up in my room coding day in day out, doing nothing to reach out to users at all. And i knew nothing about a/b testing at that point. At that point, i shut it down due to gut feel, that i wasn't going to make it with this. The only money that i made was through advertisers for the site.
