Started with micro niches out of the gate and focused more on traffic generation.

Semi-Retired-Dave · 03-23-2010, 07:19 PM

I think I would have bought more domains too, even though I have a lot, I should have locked down some better ones.

I never thought Google was going to take off like it did or Apple. I would have bought stocks in both those companies for sure. If I had enough money back then.

GAMEFINEST · 03-23-2010, 07:29 PM

probably get more domains ..

brassmonkey · 03-23-2010, 07:32 PM

Well lets break it down, at the end of 99 or so apple stock was $10 now its $228

Google wasnt even public 10 years ago but when it went public you could get shares for about $100 now its at $570 or so.

So if you took a million bucks $100,000 and invested in apple back then you would have:

$2,280,000.00 Now

If you where to have taken $100,000 and invested it in google at the end of 04 at the $100 share price you would have about:

$570,000.00 Now

THE question is what will be the hot stock in 5-7 years from now that one can get in cheap right now?

And the answer is:

I have no fucking clue, but I sure as fuck can look back real good

96ukssob · 03-23-2010, 07:52 PM

start up a huge TGP network. do lots of SEO work on my sites to get in hundreds of thousands of visitors in daily and blast them with the best sponsors and push dating sites. Then sell this off in 2006/07 and start a tube network and cash that out within a year... spend the time between then and now masturbating on my yacht

ok me too some more domains.

blonda80 · 03-23-2010, 10:16 PM

i would do the same things as i did but better

JD · 03-23-2010, 10:18 PM

be 18

Oldy · 03-24-2010, 12:05 AM

wouldn't change a thing,
Success is always hard work, regardless of what you know, it still has to be implemented.
Luckily I put in the effort back then,
but I would not go back to "re-work", fucking 18 hour day workloads for a decade is no fun.

Oldy · 03-24-2010, 12:06 AM

At any stage of the game, It was never easy,
fuck I was doing expired domains during 1998, It still wasn't easy
I was mailing NEW DOMAIN REGISTRATION domain.com to networksolutions for domains, It still wasn't easy.
Shit was never fucking easy even when you knew how much money there was to be made.

Everyday was a fucking grind up regardless of how "easy" it looked in hindsight.

Oldy · 03-24-2010, 12:10 AM

Most people given the tools wouldn't have succeeded even if you gave them a roadmap on how to succeed, If you didn't succeed back then, it wasn't because of what you didn't know, it was because of how little of a grindup you did.
If you grinded, you made money, If you didn't, you sat around and jerked your cock all day, That does not make money.

Congrats to all the winners.

Chosen · 03-24-2010, 12:54 AM

I would have worked harder and reinvested more. I got my start keyword bombing Altavista. In 98-99 Altavista was one of the biggest search engines out there. It didn't take me long to figure out that you could build a site with 5 pics on it. several banners and links to sponsors, then spam your chosen keyword all over it and submit it to them. Within 48 hours you would be listed. Sometimes I got a top 10 spot. Sometimes a top 5 and sometimes lower than 50. But I made a few dozen of these sites a day and submitted them to altavista and spammed them in the appropriate usenet newgroups and was doing pretty well with them.

I thought it was so easy I wasted a lot of time just screwing off and not focusing. As things changed I had to buckle down more. I should have really focused more when things were easy and good.

plsureking · 03-24-2010, 01:27 AM

i would have stayed out of porn lol

biggest problem for most guys in porn over the last 10 years wasn't doing things wrong, it was spending the piles and piles of money we earned doing things right.

i should have just stayed a corporate drone rather than eating all that gold and now starving like the rest.

Oldy · 03-24-2010, 05:04 AM

kane,
Not trying to jab you , but we did the same thing, I did a lot of subdomain spamming on altavista. But get this...
I used over 100 new domains a day * 500 subdomains each = 50,000 new subdomains daily. Every 2-3 days they all get banned, I get another batch of 100 domains
So in your case, you did 12 sites?
I did 50,000 sites a day...

Money is made in the scale!

nation-x · 03-24-2010, 05:18 AM

I would start screaming bloody murder that Al Qaeda had a plot to hijack planes and fly them into the trade towers, the commodity futures modernization act was going to cause a financial meltdown before the end of the decade, there are no WMDs in Iraq, and saved all my money to invest in Google and Apple.
