How to start a publisher site

Friday, May 28th, 2010

The 10 steps you need to take to make sure you will always make money online:

1. Think of a UNIQUE idea – something that has great added value to the USER

2. Find a good relevant script that can accommodate your needs in the most optimal way – something you don’t have to invest too much time/money in customizing and that will give you enough leeway to beta test your site.

3. decide if you want to create a keyword based domain or make up a name (ex: google, yahoo, bing, meshable, ping, VS Myspace, facebook, wildtangent, fox etc,)

4. Set up your website and add initial content to make it look somewhat alive – this can be done by you, your friends, content writers, importing RSS feeds etc’.

5. Add creative’s on your site- start selling your traffic! In today’s world users are so used to seeing banners (and disregard them) that if they DO NOT see any advertising on your site (unless you are operating craigslist or something similar) it feels to them that you are not successful.

6. Start building links – article writing, directory submissions, blog commenting, forum posting, build a facebook page, create a twitter profile, create a myspace page and any additional social media platforms you can think of.

7. Optimize your site with great additional features and widgets

8. Buy traffic to your site while continuing to add new fresh content

9. Consider new traffic source, advertising channels, and marketing opportunities (JV, Affiliate, Etc’.)

10. Optimize your site and prepare the Release candidate of the site

The benefits of using open source scripts

Friday, May 28th, 2010

There are many benefits to using open source scripts.

The main benefits of using them is cost. Most if not all of the open source scripts are free. The idea behind an open source script is to let others use your script for free and allowing developers to create new features, plugins , templates etc’ for your script. This environment allows scripts to progress rapidly and efficiently. Usually, every time a developer comes up with a new idea and makes it into an update he lets everyone enjoy it. And thus if you come up with some brilliant idea you can let others use it and gain respect within that community. There are many developers that begin their career this way and work their way up into lead developer positions.

What this means for us is that every time we come up with a feature we want to add to our site it’s already most likely been thought of, and with the right research skills we can find anything we desire very quickly and install it very easily.

Additionally because many people from all over he world are using , testing , developing and releasing new updates for the scripts on a daily basis you can rest assured that you are working with the most advanced technologies. That you will always be updated on new features and that basically you are investing your time in the right direction.
