    I was thinkign of making a bird classified websites just for bird buyers & sellers.

    I wanted to put google adsense and spread the word of my classified website, and make it popular . The script i will be using is Noah's classifieds...

    Sounds good - what is keeping you from going forward? Might try other things than just adsense if you want to make some money. What about calling around to other pet stores and either working advertising deals with them or sell them a bulk rate - i.e. place 20 ads a month for $100.

    just make sure the birds you trade in are not on any prohibited list or any of those who trade on your site or you could be getting a lot of unwanted attention . Other than that good luck with it .

    It seams all classifieds go free, which mean it needs to be ad supported

    Yes its a unique niche but there is not huge market there for this kind of niche.
    And the trading of bird is somehow bound by country law so the chance are low to get seller paid to get listed at your classfield.

    I agree with mentos.
    Classifieds are great attractors, but the market has to be right.
