    OK, I want to start a website, to make money. Now this is what I got ;

    - 2 Years of hosting [ 1TB space, 20TB bandwidth ]
    - Money for a domain.
    - Photoshop and xHTML/CSS coding skills. [ I do NOT need a coder and/or designer ]

    So I pretty much don't got anything. What is the best and fastest way to make money with a website ? I have 12 hours a day to spend on the project, and I am willing to put a LOT of effort in it.

    Please throw me some suggestions, tips and feedback. Help would be GREATLY appreciated !

    3- write photoshop tutorials
    4- submit them to tutorials index sites to get traffic
    5- add adsense in your blog
    6- start earning

    Thanks moaid123 ! Nice idea !

    Thinking about a domain name, I was thinking about :

    www.xbr-tutorials.com

    Is that a good domain-name ?

    Why dont you offer designs and coding of designs on dp. You can do say a couple discounted to build up a portfolio and then sell your services on dp etc.

    You could also make a free template site with some of your skills and sell sponsorship links in the signature to make revenue from too.

    Yes, that seems like a good idea.
    Just a suggestion - dont use hyphens in the domain name.
    Try to keep it short(words like xbr dont help either).

    All the best with your new venture:)

    "What is the best and fastest way to make money with a website ?" if you think like this i can asure you you won't get far and fast

    Start a website of something you know and are good at

    Build it yourself since you have the skills and then start promoting (pay somebody or start learning seo)

    I once have submitted a tutorial to Pixel2Life. The site had over 3000 visitors in one day, because the tutorials was a 'tutorial of the week'. If I do this, I will get quite a lot traffic !

    Once I have fairly good traffic I will start using adsense etc.

    Thanks all for the help !

    I will notice you killerj ;), that's a promise.

    I need some ideas for a domain, I kinda finished my logo but the name is missing. I already made a slogan though -- ' Where art meats simplicity '

    I wouldnt suggest posting a domain name you're considering buying - someone else might agree that its a good name and get in there first!! :eek:
