I am debating whether to build a big community site for the general masses (with 13+ up members) or an over 18 plus community site. Obviously, one is advertising revenue generated while the other is membership based. What are your thoughts? I know Under 18 year olds generate alot of traffic, but i also know that i can maximize with recurring memberships as well. your opinion is greatly appreciated.
Hi Chowda, I think it depends what you really want to get out of it. If you want just basic traffic or if you want traffic, plus members and sales. As many more teens of 13 are on the net I also think that not as many are browsing than young adults. Considering after school activities, homework, and basically computer and internet access. 18+ have more access and many are college students, whom use the web for projects, general browsing, music and movie downloading, (porn) and ofcourse the use of email and instant messenger. Hope this helps. Vanessa Affiliate Manager Share Results
