Hi,

I wanted to get peoples thoughts on this....

I have a myspace friend adder which is AJAX based and runs right in the browser (check out the review on www
.bot reviewer
.com ).

I was looking at ways to monetize it, and had the following concept...

www
.socialnetbot.com
/sntpublic/freefriends.aspx

Basically, it's a featured profile page integrated with the adder. Casual myspace users can come in on a daily or weekly basis and add 50 new friends at no cost. However, with high traffic, the featured profiles themselves could end up with 1,000's of friend requests....so you then sell the featured profile slot for $$.

It's basically a train on steroids.

So the hypothesis is this:

assume
1) the site can get 2,500+ unique users per day
2) I can get $10 per slot per day (2,500 adds per day)
3) I can sell all 50 slots each day

Then $10 * 50 slots * 30 days = $15K per month.

I'm also considering a franchise type business where marketers pay me a flat monthly fee and I set up + host a featured profile page for them, they sell the slots and keep the revenue they make.

Does this sound feasable or am I smoking crack?

Cheers.

I tried your system after reading one of your other posts. I was impressed by it and your idea is seemingly feasable... I would be curious to know what figure you had in mind as your monthly fee...

It seems like it would be hard setting it up...

I'd try your system and it work fine for me. But I still thinking of something.. :glare:

Setting it up is the easy part. Selling the slots is the challenge.

Make the first one profit before you dream of francising.

I've had a lot of the same sorts big dreams/schemes in my time. I don't wanna burst your balloon. Stay focused on the challenge in front of you instead of counting all the money you will make 'someday'.

Finding 1500 people a month to give you $10 for 2500 train whore friends will be VERY VERY difficult.

Get something up and running and we can all throw something at it and help you out a bit I am sure. But stay focused. Get it built and running first.

Thanks for the feedback chickenhole.....yeah, baby steps first...gonna concentrate on making my first $50! Then I'll take it from there.....

Thanks for your support.
