    Business 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.

    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?

              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

                    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)
                        Only women that will admit to being 'old' are your grandmother, haha.

                        Sugar daddy angle is interesting..

                        Best of luck with the project

                                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

                                      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

                                              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

                                                  old kills the domain ..good luck tho
                                                  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

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

                                                            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

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

                                                                                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:

                                                                                          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.
