Sorry, don't earn much except the google ads on top , but they are nowhere near to even allow me to break even on the server charges.

It sure would be... but it would be a huuuuuuuuuge book to boot.

Abt the money earning part... Hhmm no ads, no membership fees... then probably we can donations stuff like that. In the name of God, or say serving the poor. :wink:

Paid access to a website, you mean? its going to be difficult to maintain traffic if you have a paid website, but once you have exclusive members, they are going to come back. From my modest experience, I can tell that it was incredibly difficult to get users to pay initially. As reputation grows, it might be easier to sell products without having to answer questions over and over again about the content and value of a product.

IMO, Unless a website has a product of its own, its going to be hard to generate revenue and even harder to sustain it. Advertising can do a support function, as in paying for hosting etc, but a website really needs a good product to make the revenue sustainable. Also, traffic is a fickle thing. you got to look out for competition if you are going to sustain good traffic.

One of the models is the B2C model...one website that immediately comes to mind is jobsahead.com and ofcourse, hotmail. in this case, you might have to operate the website on your own for the first one year before you can take on advertising. google and other advertisers ae a good thing, but it can distract you from your original plan.

Another model is the B2B model ,where you build a software exclusively for businesses, small business or large corporations. Someone i know is an Excel consultant. He has his business online ,works from home and has clients as far as hongkong.

Its an entreprenuerial venture like any other. if you can identify a need and work to fulfill the need with a good product, you are on your way. Its not really making money that should matter. you should really concentrate on fulfilling a need that you identified in the first place. Money should be a by-product in the first one or two years.

I say all of the above from my modest experience.

hope this helps.
