What do you suggest is the first thing I'd do if i was looking to make a good amount of cash out of a website???
It depends on your intent...are you interested in truly "investing in websites" whereby you buy websites, increase their value/improve monetization? Or just making money by creating websites.
then i think the first thing you should do is the sign up for adsense and learn how to drive traffic to a website
adsense is free but without a qaulity website your screwed adsense pays you when visitors click on advertisings but you need to have a website of your own or have someone willing to share i also recommend domain flipping
yeah thats what im thinking about... is investing in a website.. but the question is since I'm just starting out what do I look for and why should I look for it?
The easiest thing to do is buy a website in a niche you're familiar with (subject matter). Depending on your budget, you may also look to purchase websites with existing traffic or revenue (though they will cost more). The greatest mistake you can avoid is to stick to things you know (this is, after all, an investment - not an experiment). Buying a website pushing affiliate sales isn't probably the best idea if you have know idea how the industry works, etc. Know the monetization strategy they use, or you plan to use. Mostly just do thorough research, and think of ways that you would improve the prospective website, before making bids, or buying.
maybe a little more detail..... what EXACTLY is it... and how do you earn cash off of it... I know I'm probably being a pain with this just really want to make some good decisions!!!
well i'm currently building up my budget but as of now i have about $20 to invest... not much but im willing to do soe work to make a good website... I'd like to invest in something that will eventually earn me $20 a month.
