    Not sure where to post this so I'll try it in here.....

    I'm thinking about adding a well-done magazine subscription site to my sites. I like to read various magazines and I'm sure others do too. Can it be profitable enough to warrent fooling with? I know that there are many of these already in existance, but the 'net is a really big marketplace. Has anyone here had any experience with selling magazine subscriptions?

    Any thoughts etc. are appreciated. Thank you

    FYI I just took on a new magazine affiliate program client. One of their affililiates is Monster.com. I doubt Monster would bother if it was not profitable.

    BTW these are FREE mags so consumer does not need to buy anything so conversions are up over 20%.
    Here's the full page review if you are interested:

    I've never done it, but heard you can make some $$ off of magazine sites. If I had to guess, you'd have some stiff competition though.
