Image hosting website
 

Hello, i want to open image hosting website, i have server that can cover alot of bandwith, and i can buy some domains.

What im interested in to is if anyone can help me decide which image hosting script to use, i have been searching on internet but not finding anything proper, for start i would like to find free or paid script where you can upload image s anonymously , or register and create gallery, get thumbs link, direct link, etc... basic functions.

And what ads you can recommend on website, i have seen some websites with google adsense ads but if im gonna allow adult images, adsense is out, other programs that i know for adult advertising don't give much earnings.

As far as what ads to put up, adult dating generally does well.

I have been trying various adult ads, and ero advertising was best for me.

Ideally you would get a script that allowed tags, then you can get ads that cater to the keywords. As for script, there is no good ones that I have seen. This is another thing that needs a custom job.

Good luck!

Hmmm... very nice idea, i was also thinking to make one ad place for uploaders, to pull them to upload to website and earn something from this. I also found starting point to build script using uploadify java uploader.

You might want a paid hosting affiliate program for it as well. DWHS has a good one: http://www.dwhs.net/affiliates/

make sure they have to provide an email and to confirm it. Then have a check box for your mailing list. It's more work but mailing lists really work when they are opted in.

How much do you want to spend?
I have a photo sharing site that sounds like what you're looking for. imagend.com might be for sale for the right price.
Not cheap fyi. :thumbsup
