How those Myspace resource sites get their content

    I am planning to launch a kind of Myspace resource site in a short term. I am not planning this to make money directly from the resource site, but its part of my strategy to setup this kind of site.

    Basically I have the whole idea of the resource site in my mind, of course I will be innovating and not setup just another Myspace resource site, but I will make it a bit different. Since I am still analyzing my opportunities in this niche I am having a small problem which is the content of the Myspace resource site. How do all those big guys in the Google top 10 ranking get their content like layouts, backgrounds, graphics etc. Perhaps they have made so much money that they will have their own designers? But they have started once in the past with some content. How and where to get that content?

    Looking forward to your recommendations.

    myspace is played out mate, you're entering a market full of competitors that have already been in it for years.

    There are lots of designers, especially on MyspacePros, that sell packs of layouts and graphics.

    Also the big sites accept "user submitted layouts" (which could be unique or very likely ripped off.)

    They pretty much all get their content from here.
