Hey..
First off...I never said I was going to compete with the BIG paysites..
Second..Unlike most of you all..I have yet to create any paysite? So, due to no experience with it, I thought I'd ask the ones that know..I've seen quite a few paysites with not so many images...Besides..I don't plan on a mega site..just a small site..I planned on making the site free..(To an extent)..
My idea was to choose 2 sponsors to discuss my plan with about an idea..
Surfer joins my site for FREE for one year & get's 3 days free pass to several sites of 2 sponsors..THEN..if surfer does not cancel the 3 day pass, it would in theory recur at $signup rate X # of sites in package x 2 sponsors....
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
theoretically..the surfer will be so damn fucking busy surfing 50 ARS sites that he'll forget to cancel his membership..
SO, I'd get $35 per signup X 50 sites OR recurring...(But with 50 sites I'm doubtful of recurring..) This is just hypothetical..
Is it so much trouble to ask questions here..
It is a webmasters FORUM after all isnt it?
Now, if I don't ask, I'll never find out..AND, if I don't do it..I'll never learn experience...
And about the quip about free hosting...
Yep..for the galleries of my free site's..For this project NOPE!!!
Checks will be in the mail soon...that means extra $$$ for hosting & domain, etc..(hopeful/wishful thinking..)
And about the script thing..I never said I could write such a thing..just an idea because I thought it would work if someone was able to create such a thing...BRAINSTORMING!!!
& it is NOT sponsor content..
It is licensed content..
Quite a few pics..a dozen or so mpegs..
I can add some plug ins & add to this...
I finished opening a hundred or so zip files..& discovered that it's not 10,000 images...more closer to 4000 to 5000 with several CRAP which'll likely leave me with 2500 to 3000 useable images & the movies which are HQ w/sound & 1 to 3 min clips..
I just have motivation to try things..to experiment..to challenge things..to take on tasks & see where it can go...After all, if you can't have fun with it..then you can't make money with it...
I just made the first page for a tour..
gotta shrink this fucker now
1600 x 1200 ...lol
