    What's the fastest time you went from buying a new domain to making decent/good money with it?

    I really hate posting stuff like this because everyone wants to argue and call you a liar but 30 minutes. 2 weeks later I was pushing $5,000 / week. This was in 2001 and it was actually $0 investment because I used freehosts. I've done the $0 to profit in the same day many times since on various stuff.

    The fastest way I know is paid parking

    Park your domain for money while you develop a content site.

    Depends on the service you choose to park on, if you park on Sedo or similars for sure you will not get more than just pennies a month.

    It took 2 days to post my site, 4 to display adSense ads, and I made 8$ in the first adsense day! So I guess 1 week to profit. If after a month of business profit = revenue - hosting - ads (if any) - domain name

    I have a q: how a parked domain is making revenue if it is not a very easy type in? and is a fresh site!?

    I made $10,000 in 24 hours. Launched a new membership site and had a few people email there lists about it. Sold out within 24 hours. This was in March this year.

    Site took me about 4 hours to make. Stuff inside the membership was all outsourced, so that didn't take anytime for me to develop.

    ...and no...I won't be letting you know what site. :)

    Also started another membership site in May 2006 and made about $9,000 with it in 24-36 hours. Same process was used, different type of content inside the membership thou.

    It took me 2 years before I was making enough money so that I could finish my full time job where I was earning over £300 per week.

    In this 2 year frame, I had learn't how to write html, php, sql, learn't marketing, affiliate programs, etc.

    Before the 2 years before I quit my job, I didn't know nothing about affiliate programs, internet marketing, how to produce a website, etc.

    Now I have been doing all this for just over 4 years and am happy that I turned to the internet for my income and full time job.
