Hi
Some one please help me , I am ready to start a gen4 site but, how to launch it ???
I mean with no ads ??? how to get advertisers ??? if i place my own ads then it will be more expensive and also risk.

if i have got 3000 members and i should pay them from my own pocket if no advertisers is it will be around 120$ per day ..

How to start the site ???

I cant invest that amount

Dont launch with an ad rate of .01
Lots of us are around 0.005 per click our even less like me. neobux is .001
&
In time people will make purchases of upgrades and referrals.

Hello

Slow and steady wins the PTC/GPT race. If you want to get rich quick, then you will fail. This industry is unfortunately filled with those who think this is how it happens, and like ANY other business, it takes time, dedication, and you will have lots of work to do to make it all work.

For payment per click, you can always raise what you pay so start as low as your math allows for a profit with your business model you choose.

For getting advertisers, as with any advertising company, you have to fish for leads and put yourself out there for them to reach you. You have to target them, and be unique in your ways you do this. Allot of this depends on your business model you are going to use and the type of site you plan on running. Or if you have a theme if you plan on targeting advertisers off of that theme..ect.

To keep payments low and on time, set your rates on cashout high...at first...due to you can always lower it...as you stabilize. For instance, $0.001 per click - $10.00 cashout. That is a nice starting rate. You can even add another 0 if you want to...there are lots of excellent micro sites who do fantastic in this industry and they have the lowest rate of failure.

Whats beautiful about starting out slow as I explained above, is that you can always increase all of those things...as you stabilize and as you get real advertisers, or can plan $X coming in per month on a regular basis.

Thanks

Hello

I don't recommend posting your own ads...but, as you and everyone on this forum know, that is how 99% of people do it/start out.

Some invest nothing to begin, some invest up to $10,000 or more..this all depends on your business model and your end goal.

Where to get advertisers...as I explained above, this depends on things like your business model, and end goal. Some sites do theme'ed based targeting, such as...they make a site based on a field...I'll pick one...DOGS...then they target ANYTHING that has to do with dogs. The site is then designed with the theme of dog's in mind.

Can you launch without ads... Well, you can build your site, set your rates, get your payment processors all in order and upgraded to business accounts/verified, and plan your attack on the targeted audience.

Thanks
Rob

the referrals that people buy are the referrals that sign up under my own code that is posted on sites and etc?

edit; hi does anyone else know the answer to the question?.im guessing that the referrals that people rent are the same members that join for free?.

Cool tips!

I created a spreadsheet to help people with the math needed to run a site.
You must have microsoft excel or similar to open the spreadsheet
Only edit the values that are highlighted in yellow
Everything is label and should be understandable.
You can ask me questions if you like. You might not understand the spreadsheet completely but its a start.
