Which website would you start?

I want to start a new blog.
It'll either be about jewelry, or video gaming. I know, polar opposites, but I have a small leg up in either of those 2 categories.
I dont know if either of those areas are a better site to start than the other.

With jewelry I don't know if people would actually buy jewelry online. And with gaming I dont know if gamers are mostly 10 year old boys who wont buy online.

When I search for Jewelry on Google I get: 928,000,000 results
When I search for gaming on Google I get : 509,000,000 results
I dont know if that says anything.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

 

why would someone buy a $10.000 ring from your website, i wouldnt even if i have the money, i would never trust.

go for the gaming business, the biz has grown up so much after the PS3, WII games came out... so... I think its a great biz chance.

 

Thanks for the info on gaming.

I wouldnt sell jewelry myself, I would be an affiliate to larger reputable jewelry stores like Tiffany's and Macy's, etc.
And I wouldnt expect to sell a $10,000 ring, but if I could sell a lot of $50 rings that might be worth something.
Of course I dont know of the commissions paid out by these stores are crappy.

 

jewellery vs gaming... id'd say gaming is better and from the custmers point of view doesnt require trust isues as with jewellery sites...

 

Start a site that's interesting for you. It would be the best choice...

 

Good advice.

Trust is a big deal in the online world. Big money purchases are not going to be from some no-name blog, or website.

2 cents.

 

Do a bit of both, and see which one does better.

 

go with games site

 

Yea, jewellery site can work well if you've good offline presence too otherwise simply go for gaming site.

 

I totally agree when you are interesting in that thing, the website creation will be good and easy And you will get paid for that what you are doing

 

Hi,

If you can get a jewelry site going, you might be able to build a small business. But you have to have some sort of plan and experience on selling jewelry.

From what I have researched, I doubt you can build a business from games.

gaming people are not just 10 year old boys - just to let you know. In fact... average play age is somewhere around 20-30 (talking about hardcore games) and bit higher + mainly female (for casual games).

And they buy stuff online.

Competition IS there, but on the other hand: so it's pretty much everywhere else.

 

I've heard selling toe rings, and such is big.
