Question 4 paysite owners
 

Even though I worked for payserve.com, I never thought about what the costs are 2 start a good paysite!

What are the set up costs, content ( PICS-MoVies )?

6000$ without the advertising

This is how I did,,,
Get a photographer as a friend.
Get a partner who is good at design pages.
Signup for ccbilleu.com (free)

Done!

:Graucho

being a friend of a photographer doesn't mean you can get all his content for free

I steal all my content, use free hosts, and I process through PayPal.

Very low overhead. :thumbsup

I think it depends on the niche, but I wouldn't bother doing it with anything less than $20,000

$3.000 Depend on how big you want to make it.

19.95
the kit also comes with a killer set of knives that can cut open cans

lol

THANKS for your replies......:1orglaugh

depends what photographer it is.... :thumbsup

Nick, what are you up to? :Graucho

setting up my own business :Graucho

if you find a photographer like that, please give me his contact info :)

if you're going exclusive you're looking at over 60k for a decent one...just content and design

Is it more if you try to do a reality type of niche? Also co-branding with the talent seems like a bad idea but lots of sites do it and do well. What is the thought on that?

whoa, 60k?

I think it depends on what kind of site you want and how cheap you can get the models to shoot for.

I would say you could do it as cheap as $5000 (maybe less) if you got your hustle on and learned how to do it all yourself. It's when you have to out source everything when it gets expensive.

Around $500 should do it

He said "good" paysite.

Hmmm, a lot of different prices :1orglaugh

I thought it would be around 50k, Just 2 make sure you have a nice retention from day one.

How can you even try 2 start a paysite for 6000$ ?
You probably buy a lot of overused content, and try 2 fill your membersection with upsells right? and/or Feeds.

Lol like reak the sigspammer knows the answer

Oh well

Cost me about $10,000 and I did not have to pay for content, as it is all mine, but I did have to lease some bonus stuff.

Spooky

Headless just posted a sweet design in this thread: http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showth...hreadid=180555

I think he'd let it go for 50K :Graucho

Where do I send my credit card info?

remins me of titmowse

20k easy, no advertising budget either

I would say about to start would be ok if you start with atleast 5 sites which will run about 6-10k just for the design, another 10k for content, another 10k for an affiliate program with an ok script, another 10k for advertiment and about 100k for webmaster payout for the first 4 months before you make a dollar :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

around 500$ for the designs i guess
& a quick stop at www.adultcontent.nl and they will set you up with loads of european content at low low prices:)
starting at 49 per dvd (video) of around 90 minutes

advertising not included
