Moving from Short term to Long
I decided to stop trying to flip websites ( Could have made a decent amount though) on a short term basis and rather go for long term projects.
I don’t know about you guys but I’d rather set up something earning me in the high $XXX on autopilot or semi then working hours for a revenue in the mid $XXXX. ( That’s just me)
Work that involves minimal labor can be replicated and that spare time can be directed towards other things but If you invest hours on a sole subject, you will not have any ways to create other revenue sources or tweak different facets of your businesses.
Here are some projects that I’m ditching :
Proxies( They get blocked often and I don’t want to bloody remake a new one every time one of the oldies can’t be accessed anymore).
Website flipping( I don’t want to make a site and then sell it for one month later. That’s not what I’m looking for in a business).
Others I’m looking into:
Starting a social networking website like perhaps Myspace or Facebook on a specific niche( Perhaps a Video game I love or something popular that interests me)
Starting a proxy listing( This kind of project could work wonders for my proxy promotion service)
Create a website for my article writing service while perhaps hiring a proofreader for my team.
Create some minimal work websites perhaps like bash.org that I could properly monetize through adsense and other PPCs.
When creating a long term business , make sure it is something you love so you don’t get bored out of your skull during the building process.
Any other suggestions?
Btw, Neotrepreneur just had broken the 50 suscriber feed yesterday . Wonder how long it will stay there for?

I would try affiliate marketing. Social networks are very crowded right now, affiliate marketing lets you work in many different niches.

Hey there. I was thinking of getting into proxy sites after reading about it on theuniversitykid.com. However, I had a semi-bad experience ordering a proxy site, so I took that as a sign and shelved the idea altogether.
I hear you on 3 things:
- long-term
- lessened effort
- doing something you love doing
I’ve been thinking about those recently.
When you do get your article-writing site off the ground, do get in touch as I do proofread.
take care and all the best…
