Pros: What would you do with the domain name OldDating.com and wanted to make 4-5 figures a month?
 

If you had that domain name OldDating.com laying around sitting there doing nothing, what would a smart business person do?
1. Make it a Rated PG dating site for mature people like SeniorFriendFinder, OurTime, etc? Proote it on facebook, twitter etc like I see OurTime all the time.
2. Become an affiliate of one of those sites and promote the shit out of it?
3. Buy an affiliate software like elevatedx.com, buy lots of mature porn and just promote the hell out of if
4. Other?

Was digging through some old domains and saw I had a similar good domain to that and thought I'd do something with that. Its a waste to just sit there whe I have time to devote to it. :helpme

ps - This is if youre hungry so theres no time limit, no work limit, no shortcuts at all. You could spend 16 hours a day working the plan. whatever it takes to get the most money out of it

Biggest problem with it, Old people usually don't like to be called Old. :(

I would ask the same question on gfy, but I would say I want to make 7-8 figures, why settle for 4-5? :)

This :2 cents:

If you're looking for a great dating domain name, I have friendsfornow.com for sale.
See sig for contact info.

I would let that crappy domain expire.

Good point.:2 cents:

Not long ago tried to make 7-8 figures on something that seemed to make sense and spent a year interviewing potential clients who loved the idea, and I lost my life savings when i built it and no one came. I fell into a 3 year depression after and I'll never do it again.
I got to know Lexapro and Lorazepam way too well.

So I'll be happy with 4-5 figures a month and a nice little life. More realistic for me :)

Thanks for the great point. So itd be better off for adult? As mainstream users will be put off by the name?

there is definitely a solid trend for the niche. We would love to assist with your organic growth when ready

Google Trends

Yeah its definitely a great niche. Everyone gets older so its on everyones mins, not everyone wants to date a 20yo, theres a LOT of men who like old women
and a lot of younger women who want an old sugar daddy.
lots of angles with it, just not sure the right way to go with it

well, you obviously have to keep it mainstream to gain the organic, but based on what i can see, the traffic is there, just a matter of conversions which is based on the quality of the site.

There's 'old'.. and then there's 'older' (mature seems to be the preferred term) :winkwink:
Only women that will admit to being 'old' are your grandmother, haha.

Sugar daddy angle is interesting..

Best of luck with the project :thumbsup

cougar or sugar daddy dating.

ok what if you had OlderDating.com?
do you think theres $10,000 a month business to be had there?

how long is an old grey piece of nut sac hair?

You can make lots of money with pretty much anything if its done right.

No question olderdating.com is preferable to olddating.com but there's plenty of potential with what you got to work with too :thumbsup

You better accept Money Orders.

i think yeoledating.com sounds more old :winkwink:

Old is not that much popular, you know: old people, old website, old software, old furniture, old car, etc.

Old objects are antique, not old. Just like dishwater is "Au de supreme repas". :)

So you better make some "Dating site for experienced" or something like that.

I personally would consider a better domain. I'm just not a fan of "Old Dating".

Thanks, I'm asking what "done right" means?
Does that mean porn or mainstream or something else? Does that mean the options I gave in the first poster something different. That's what I'm trying to figure out

old kills the domain ..good luck tho

or maybe just use it as an affiliate for a WebCam site and feature older MILF and grainy models

Ok I now see that the word "older" is better name, thanks for the advice all

Besides the name now I just don't know what to do with it

yeah, if it was dating.com you might be able to make a few dollars

:) think about who calls old people old and you'll know your target audience

i prefer oldballsdating.com

Whether or not you can make five figures a month has absolutely nothing to do with that domain.

You can try it as a dating site, build your own HERE

10K a month with a domain :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

im asking about how to make money in the Mature niche, not how to make money with a domain. I know that domain is worth $0.
I meant what would someone do to make a nice business in the mature niche.
I asked it wrong, fuck

and mature porn vs mainstream porn is what i was getting at

clay. you are confusing everyone

are you talking about porn or dating?

Im asking if you have a "Mature" domain name would you put porn or dating on it.
thinking long term

Create a site (blog) about how the old way of dating is dead and this is how to do it right today. Its got the keyword dating and its a .com and 7 years old.

Is that too many olds in one sentence? Fuck I must be getting the old bug ::helpme

Go with "yes signals V 2.0"

Thanks! Actually my domain name is better than that and it's about 14 years old. I just used that domain in the title as an example because I didn't want to give mine away. But I wasn't sure people are making more money with mature dating like seniorfriend finder and ourtime.com. Or with just mature porn

The domain is shit

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

try to sell it for 20usd, buy used ice skates, then you can make unlimited figures per month :winkwink:

Not sure how you gonna do anything porn with this domain.. unless its a variation of 'fuck an ugly chick in your area now" banners you see on tubes.. but for old hags aimed at zit faced dateless wonders who would fuck just about anything.

Or maybe do a US version of what these guys have done or sell it to them:
Old Dating - Meet Older Dating Singles Online

Or maybe as you alluded to go the affiliate angle of a bunch of those seniors/mature dating sites and have a directory thing going.. olddating is easy to remember and hence can be keyed in a pinch in addition to SE traffic you'll be getting.. can have an adult section as well for raunchier stuff for the oldies :winkwink::thumbsup.. uhh.. umm :Oh crap

:1orglaugh

Keep on keeping on bloke!!

Hand out flyers at the local nursing homes ...

Ok so what Im hearing is that its too much of an uphill battle to try and make a mainstream mature dating site, i should just go for an adult site so it will be easier to promote and people will be less fussy about the name.

Well if they're less fussy, they might be more kinky...... check mussig

No sugar coating....

Domain is irrelevant. Either you have the skill and ability to hit your goals or you don't. Just tossing something up and hoping the world will find it, clever domain or not, is guaranteed to fail.

However long you have been out of the industry, it is much, much more difficult now than you remember.

IMHO, the goal you are aiming for, thinking you can do it on a single domain, and having to ask what to do with it, is not even remotely realistic.

I would forget about your domain and instead make a game plan about how you are going to get traffic to whatever site you are going to make. Without that, you're dead in the water. If you think affiliates are going to be the only source these days, you are going to be greatly disappointed.

Good luck.

Throw up a nice landing signup page on olddating.com. You don't have to build the site, just have a landing page that API's to another site or just collect the leads for later or after the user signs up just have it say thanks for signing up we will notify you when we launch. Next, hire an adwords expert to send you traffic. Do like $100 a day for a week as a test. If you can land users for under $2, you will most likely make money on this assuming you convert 1:20. Then you gotta build the site and get whitelisting and a dedicated server and IP's. I would bet you that older people will rebill longer.

This is how I test ideas. It costs about 1k to test to see if it is even worth exploring more. If you cant get signups for the right price then don't even bother building the site. Once you know the landing page converts, then you build the site, once that is converting you can look into getting affiliates with older people traffic.

give it to me

thanks, thats what im trying to do and gather information. i want to work, i have plenty of ime, just wanted suggestions on what direction to work in

thanks you, I didn't think that idea would work for mature dating because theres sooooooo much competition that I would think every click would be over $1

:thumbsup

Solid advice before dumping it all into something that may not work.
