"Anyone here make money from websites?"

Says it all in the title really! I'm just curious...

Being 18 years of age and living at home with my parents means pretty much 100% of the money I earn is disposable income. I earn my money from my part-time weekend job at my local Volkswagen dealer. 'Tis good fun, but the money isn't amazing and it naturally eats up my weekends!

And now a mate of mine tells me he runs a website and is making silly money...like £2000 a month off it, without it requiring overly time-consuming attention (i.e. updates).

So, I was just wondering...are there any of you lot running websites for profit? What sort of sites are they, how successful are they, and how long has it taken you to get where you are?


Thanks in advance,

I never said that...I have indeed seen his website and he's told me all about it. Currently in the process of making my own (not that he knows about it!)

If your friend is not willing to show you his site then he's probably lying, as a £2000 a month income website is almost certainly a full-time job for at least one person. It's very difficult to make money off the web, otherwise everyone would be doing it!

What did you say o_O

Ask your make, nice his idea and become his business rival..all's fair in love and war!!

I made £12 selling those CDs on my site.

Then I blew it all at William Hill Online.

Moral of the story:

Earn more money because gambling is fun.

Must be a porn site making that kind of money!

Honestly mate, he's lieing, there's no way he could be earning that kind of cash without some work. No way adverts would pay that kind of money on anything but a massive site..

£2000?
what kinda site is your mate's?
