rowan · 05-06-2013, 08:15 PM

I have a couple of paysites that only have a handful of members left, and I've just received the email from Verotel asking for the 500 EUR compliance fee. This fee would most likely exceed the combined yearly income of the sites, so there's no point continuing with credit card billing.

The content needs to be somewhat protected (not crawlable by search engines) so at the least I'd need to have a registration/login process, but apart from that... what are some ideas for monetising the site? What could I do to make someone signing up for free provide some value?

(The reason the sites are still up is because they have some killer SE positions - I make 10,000%+ more $ with text links to programs, than with actual paysite signups...)

Any ideas?
