What Kind Of Online Listings Have You Paid For?

[radderfire]

Hi Guys

I am trying to think of some new business ideas. I'm quite interested in creating a website where I charge people for listings. I'd just like to ask the forum what kind of listings have you paid for / are you prepared to pay for? Now Google offers free business listings I'm guessing business listings are difficult? What else would you pay for?

Thanks

None. I don't even pay for sex or chicken nuggets. I'm a walking talking miracle of nature.

 

[ikillbears]

chicken nuggets ??? you have to tell!!!!

I'm prepared to pay 42 pence for listings of women who want to have sex with me. But I also want 50% of our new business, so I'm only going to give you 21 pence.

You mean Gumtree/Yellow Pages/etc?

Anything at all. What do you pay for to display information online? What listings would you consider paying for? What advertising do you pay for?

Thanks

What a terrible business idea, for so many reasons.

And ebay listings is the only thing, and that's if I can't sell it on here first.

Hey guys, I too have come up with a business idea!

My idea is a business where people pay money for me to do something!

What have you guys paid money for that I could charge you for doing?

You're trying to think of some new business ideas but are interested in setting up a business that already exists and requires large amounts of traffic to succeed?

I really doubt you'll be launching the next craigslist or gumtree.

you might as well have asked:

'hey guys, I'm thinking about setting up this site that lets you search for stuff on the web, what sort of things do you search for and what sort of adverts and paid links do you click on?'

If you want to find out what sort of things people pay to advertise then you'll get a lot more information by simply visiting gumtree.com and craigslist.co.uk and taking a look yourself

you might be better off trying to think of a more feasible business idea

So your business idea is to charge for what Gumtree is already doing for free?

Not quite, his business idea is that he doesn't have a business idea and wants us to tell him a business idea so he can come up with a business idea.

You follow?

I know they have get a gardener but do they have get a tradesman?

Get a gardener over charge so it's not worth while.

Fiverr is a good site that I've used a lot.

There also a site called oDesk that's simularto fiverr but for more long term projects. Its a very impressive site.
