What kind of website do people want?
I've got the funds to start up a website of any kind. I don't know what I should do though. I've created many websites before. Some successful, some not so much.
Anyways, I'd like to start a new website. Something slightly different, but something that's going to catch on, something that you guys want, something that everyone wants, something you'd tell all of your friends. Something.. awesome!
Now, can you guys tell me what you think that something is/should be?

Re: What kind of website do people want?
A hiphop music site, you can learn and make cash. alot of.
Where beginning artists can share their shit, hold battles, enter cyphers etc to go higher up the ranking. Pay for extra publicity around our site etc, like a myspace but then just personalized for hiphop artists etc.
-You can let them:
-Pay for advertising around the site.
-The site themed goodies, clothing etc.
-Premium subscriptions with benefits.
-Let producers open shops where they can sell their beats and receive a comission on them (Like 10% or W/E.)

Re: What kind of website do people want?
Whatever you do, do NOT make a forum. I've seen many attempts fail.
-
Re: What kind of website do people want?
Hip-hop music community. Elaborate. Like, how would it be. For example, like a forum kind of thing, or a cms of some sort?
& Oh god, creating new forums these days is so hard. There's loads and loads of everything already out there now. It's pointless in my opinion.
They're only good for if you've already got a main website/community, and you simply need a message board.

Forum for general things as contest etcs.

how much your original first impression has been bad, i find this a very good idea!
but maybe not just a hip hop one though, maybe music in general..

Or a general one with subsections, for a guitarist can hardly enter a cypher.
PS: I only say good shit when i need shit, i need this.

Very nice. It's a pretty good idea. Isn't there already several websites like this already though? It's a good idea. Not what I was expecting in general, but I'd expect an idea like this from you of course. Regardless, I like how it sounds. I'd look into doing this if others thought it was a good idea and would join and submit some of their work to the community also.

I will join, and so will my fellow wannabe artists!
NEXT! THERE ARE A FEW SITES BUT THOSE ARE LIKE, FILLED WITH DISTORTED MINDS N STUFF.
one's known alot = letsbeef.com but the cms is rather sucky and there's alot of hacking and leeching going on there. There arent too much sites like this.
---------- Post added at 09:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 PM ----------
besides, people for once could learn sometihng and develop their talents instead of spend the whole day posting shit n trollin like i do here.
You'd add categories for each thing, since a battle is a test of skill, and therefore does not always have to be about eachother, which hasnt been seen yet,we'd have educational content next to the crapy braggy new-age shit.

Alright, I just went to that website and it was full of trash. I listened to one battle and the first guy said "I'll Pop you like a pimple, and slice your throat with a pencil.".. LOLWTF. & he sounds like me also. lmfao.

Re: What kind of website do people want?
I had a porn site up for a while. youporn rip off. Got so much traffic I had to stop, because I couldn't afford the bandwidth. Over 100k hits a week after being up for only 1 month.
So your answer is Porn....people want porn.
-
Re: What kind of website do people want?
Many porn, or world of Pussy.

I already own a high definition only porn image website. HD-Jizz: Updated Daily
I'd do a video website, but they're way to common. Wouldn't make any money off of that.

Re: What kind of website do people want?
Usually a unique niche can't be found just by asking random people.
-
Re: What kind of website do people want?
I'd personally say just make a website that interests you, and eventually a user base will grow.

Wouldn't you have been making enough to upgrade the server(s)?

I understand what you mean, but I'd like to make a website that interests many others instead of just me for once.
It'd most likely get a user base faster then "eventually".
@That other guy.
& yeah, if you were getting 100k hits a day (def not uniques), wouldn't you of have been making shit loads of money? Would've been smart to put up a donation button or something.

Re: What kind of website do people want?

rock section
dnb section
hip hop section so on so forth
-
Re: What kind of website do people want?
I'd be willing to do the music website idea.
Any suggestions on a cms/script to build off of though?
I'm really not all for starting from scratch right now, though, if all goes well, in the future for sure we'll have our own system.
@EnhancedGFX;
Yeah, I'll most likely do it, and you'll be my gfx guy. :3
-
Re: What kind of website do people want?
There are CMSes around there, powered on Joomla, wordpress and a few hacks for VBulletin.
You'll just have to look in to them.
-
Re: What kind of website do people want?
Here's what's going to happen, you'll either make something which everyone likes, in which case you'll get mega rich (rare) or
You'll make some shitty site, which is a rip off / already exists / isn't unique / which you will get bored with, have already paid for a year for the domain and the hosting package, at which point you'll realize you never want to do it again... then 1 year later, repeat because you think things have changed and you have a better idea.
Trust me, it's not worth your time.

Re: What kind of website do people want?
That's just common sense. If I didn't try, what'd be the benefit of being a webmaster?

Re: What kind of website do people want?

Yes because this is unique and there are only 5 million radio stations online. Including every habbo player.
Do the rap site, we'll have it about something else then eachother as subsection, that's original.
People rap about the world these days, about what's going on n stuff, so we should give them the chance to express theirselves in a lyrical way.

This has already been discussed. I wouldn't make a porn video website. There's many free "porn tubes" already out there.
Here's like 10 I can think off from the top of my head.
pornhub, redtube, porntube, youporn, tube8, aquaporn, hotgoo, xhamster, keezmovies, youjizz, shall I go on?
-
Re: What kind of website do people want?
Nag Nag Nag >.> then do the rap site like tufan said
-
Re: What kind of website do people want?
Go make a Game Hack server that would be a complete success and I'm sure of it.
-
Re: What kind of website do people want?

Re: What kind of website do people want?
That's something awesome Foxx.
-
Re: What kind of website do people want?
-
Re: What kind of website do people want?
Yeah, I'll probably just do the rap/music related website.
Anymore ideas, anyone?

Flash isnt the language, actionscript is.
Next, try integrating a cms into flash, you must be really dumb to work your ass off for that, also, flash is nice for visual pleasure, but not for cms systems that contain alot of data that should be ranked in google, so forget it, that's the most stupid idea ever.
@Drew, we could make an intro record aswell were we 2 go all black n spit some lyrics bout the site n encourage ppl.
YEH NIGGU!
PS: Rappers usually have slow internet, especially U.S. one's so flash would be an -off for them.

I was making around $400 a month. Not much because it just opened. To upgrade I would need at least $600/mo.
It was just bad timing when everything happened. I could relaunch it I suppose, it's just a tun of work.
