It’s been hard for me since megaupload went down; I lost my only way of making some extra buck. But it’s time to move on. I’m starting this thread to discuss about my new idea. I have tested this and it’s working.

Idea is to start a little image hosting site and then drive traffic to it manually. I have been making $7-$10 with this method. I would like to share it with you and see if anyone can get it to action. Below is the link to my blog post,


My Method of Making Money after MU

Hope this helps someone

Thanks

Nice you will get some referrals maybe ;) Well image hosting is hard to monetize IMO coz junk traffic much and people won't click actually but can monetize with popups. I had one image host which had over 10k uniques per day and later dropped coz of not much revenue.

I hope so, Traffic may be junk, it is junk, No one interested in ads. But pops are profitable. They make some reasonable amount. I have been doing this for 2 months now. have to say good replacement for file hosts.

Yeah! its fun in the beginning but with days going its tough to maintain an imagehost...they consume high bandwidth and within a few months you will be forced to buy a dedi and all the profits making from it are gone to hosting industries.
 
hmmm, u'll probably need a small vps around 25$ cause those kind of scripts eat up lots of server resources and bandwidth and u'll end up getting kicked out of ur shared account..

.com is also a good network & u should be careful with blacklabelads becausee thy ban accounts like crazy...in overal it's not very profitable idea unless ur willing to give it a lot of time and dedication
 
also you can buy a vps and setup your own file host site
where you have also the ads from and some money from members that get premium....
 
^not a bad idea, but almost all forums has file host restrictions. So it'll be hard.

And for that bandwidth issue, probably true. But at the moment I'm making $200 a month with cost of just $2.90

That's just awesome. And i'm not taking this seriously. If host banned me, I'll forget my existing content and set up it somewhere else. You don't have depend on returning traffic. When you made a post on a forum someone is going to click that thumb. That's all you need. and on PlanetSuzy, there are thousands of people clicking.

Click count for older images are going down every day. so why care about those images

On a side note, if anyone needs hosting for an image host, I'd be happy to provide hosting in exchange for a share of the profits.

I have several high end servers that I could put to good use so downtime wouldn't really be an issue.
 
bayfiles is so terrible for free user
who the fuck wait 5 mins just to download file?
dont know how it good for free user speeds not that fast
 
Bayfiles has unlimited speeds for free users now really awesome! Files up to 5gb for every one, i bayfiles will be the new megaupload they are hosted in sweden, best contry in the world to host warez and they have 10 gbps servers, their hosting company is Portlane, they don't delete copyrighted files
