First of all, Hello! Domain: http://www.myfuturefiancee.com This is my first post here on DP . I believe this is *The* place to get help and information and I hope I can achieve a point where I can give valuable information, too . I can not seem to make my mind and there is way too much information for me out there ... Should I "marry" this domain to a website that is : 1. Classifieds - with monthly prize contest. 2. White Label Dating - with monthly prize contest. 3. Store for diamond rings and/or symbolic rings. 4. Code my own website ( too time consuming .. with my dayjob and life.... ) 5. Other ? __________________ Sadly I am starting with only 100 dollars.. ( future hosting some seo from fiverr + articles. ) + adsense and/or facebook . Sincerely, I am lost... Can anyone point me in the right direction ? Thank you for viewing my post.... Kind Regards, Nootropics
Starting a Diamond ring dropshipping store might be a good idea, the name is catchy and made me thing of wedding accesories, maybe start selling wedding dresses as well?
Hey Sverre! Thank you! Yes, that could be a second line of income , but this must have , I believe something to do with engagement, that is prior actions before the "YES" and the wedding.. Hmm a diamond drop shipping store would be great . that is if there are any reliable drop-shippers out here.. Thank you for your valuable insight! Expecting more ideas maybe ?
Here is a list of some Jewelry drop-shipping suppliers, it's an old list but it is probably still good http://cathfan.blogspot.no/2008/04/best-jewelry-dropshipper-directory.html
Thanks! Here are the websites, from that blog post, that still work : http://www.seleon.ca/seleon/shipping_info_drop_ship_jewelry.htm ( for gold and diamond rings) http://www.316steel.com/ (steel rings) http://www.steel-jewelry.com/shop/ (steel rings) http://www.fashionjewelrytrade.com/product_info.php?products_id=11346 (ceramic / steel / other ) Nice , I will search for other drop shippers, too.
The 100$ constraint removes classifieds + dating from your options since they would need a large amount of traffic to make any money. Drop shipping is also probably going to take up some time (to contact drop shipper and get approved, documentation etc) and investment. With $100 what you can do is create a wordpress blog on a cheap host and buy a decent wedding related theme for 10-2$. Sign up on multiple related forums to see what people are discussing (ways to propose, where to propose, what kind of rings etc). Based on this, create some awesome content and post to your blog and to the forums. You basically want to use the forums to drive free traffic. Collect emails from the start so you build an audience along the way. Make sharing of content easy. You can monetize with either google adsense or affiliate programs (always try both) and if your site becomes successful with high converting traffic, you can then think about the drop shipping capabilities. Hope this helps Niki
Hey Nikita! ( one of my most favorites TV Series!! ) Thank you for your great input. Yes, it seems that using WordPress as a platform would be the best thing going. I see your strategy to so watching forums based on this topic , seek what people are interested in , create articles, post website on those forums and make the traffic grow. Thinking using some fiverr gigs to do this also. Thank you, again, for giving me some time of your life to help! Let the ideas come!
You are welcome. Regarding fiverr, I would be wary of using a fiverr gig to drive traffic to your website, since this will not be targetted traffic and will be useless. The only instance to use fiverr is maybe for a decent logo or image/video creation.
