Business Ideas

Business IdeasThanks for the email and kind words! I think you are off to the right start. I have two ideas like a tour guide and a classified site, but for separate reasons.

It is also very good local pointer just does not get too specific or not there will be a wide enough audience to build a big business. This guy could point your blog to Australia but the car had lots of other sites that differentiation car and worked for him, just as an example. He talks about this more in the interview mp3.

The site could be better classified as a site of community forum or like that. Will work to promote up-front, but the advantage is that users generate most of the content after it gets going, not you, so it will be a plain more passive way.

Both types of sites could produce good advertising revenue once they get going. Will not be easy but I bet you could start putting some of them a year to really get him so far and what would work.

You are certainly on the right track, and is so easy to put these type of sites today that should not last too. It does not hurt to try some and see what takes.

A final thought: if you are trying to find a good topic for a blog / forum / classified site like this, try going to a giant magazine rack at a bookstore and look at all issues out there. If there is a magazine about a subject (car, business, celebrities, health, minorities, etc.) then you can be sure you have enough of an audience to make a business out of. This has been one of the best ways I’ve found that … you can just flip through the magazine and think “is there already a good website out there that you are heading to these readers?” If not you can be the first to do it!
