What's a typical ROI to expect in this industry?
 

I was just wondering what a typical ROI someone could expect in this industry (obviously it'd depend on the person and they're qualifications, experience, etc.), but just for the "normal" webmaster.

Does anyone happen to know?

:2 cents:

It all depends on the quality of the traffic and the content you provide really there is no way that you can just say average because everybody does things different I would say a 3 to 1 if you do things right...

-1 M to +10M

for the majority, there's actually a calculation to use

(return on investment) = 0 - (initial investment + subsequent costs)

Too many different factors involved. :glugglug

Is it Free sites? AVS? PPC? Se? Paid gallery spots..

It's different for everybody ...

On small ammount it can be really high .

If you go play with big numbers, it will most likely be a lot higher then mainstream but you are taking a chance if you don't know the game
