£30 Mini Site Service

Morrissey · Jan 8, 2010

Hi all

I am thinking of starting a new project orientated around making complete and ready mini sites for people based around certain niches for £30.

The sites will include:

Ad placement or affiliate links
Full Search Engine Optimization
Content
Template
Kick-start link building and directory submission

Believe it or not i have no examples at the moment, which is why i am only posting here as a test run to see if there is any interest and to build a portfolio. If anybody would like to give it ago, they can post the link of their site here when I am finished and they are happy with it. (I promise you will be

)

So, any takers?!

This is actually a pretty good idea. Many here appear to have talents which specifically relate to domain names, and having a simple mini site up is surely preferable in almsot all cases then having no unique web presence to accompany a great domain (unless mney frm the parked page is good). I'm interested. As you don't have any examples of your own, is it pssible for you to pst a link to a mini site elsewhere which emulates the kind of thing you are looking to do?

I am interested but need more information on your background and past experiences.

What websites have you built? What contents have you written? How many hours would you schedule for each minisite and is £30 enough?

How many pages of content would you get?

Good question.

Morrissey, do you have a specification written out for how you're going to appraoch this? For the 'content' part of the service, would it not be better for the site owner to sent you the content, and you simply optimise it? Perhaps it depends on the topic at the content and the individuals requirements.

Yes they can do that if they like and would be preffered as it would take less time.

You're looking at around 3-4 hours, £30 is the price i have set at the moment, if in the future i change the way i do things or add more to the services then i will most likely raise it. I've built a lot of websites in the past and have eventually sold them on, have been out of the game for a few months but haven't lost any knowledge or what it takes to build a nice SEO ready website. But obviously at £30 you're not going to get a site like bbc.co.uk.

bensd said:

Depending on the subject, from 3 to 6.

Overall you can expect the site to be complete by 2 days max, although it should usually be done within a day.

Any more questions feel free to fire away...watching the West Brom/Forest game at the mo.

Thanks for the reply Morrissey. It sounds like it might be a speedy process then. It's definitely something I'll keep an eye on. As this is a mini site I assume that the pages will be html based?

Morrissey · Jan 9, 2010

Yes, they will be.

Discount?

I understand your prices are already quite reasonable, but would you give a discount if, say, someone ordered 5 minisites?

Regards,
Paul

This.

I do feel that what you're prposing could work, but having a URL handy as an example could really set the ball rolling.

I am really interested in this service how would I pay and when can you start???? I am prepared to make mine the guinea pig site so that others can judge and you may get more work it from it. I have a small collection of half decent web names (and a larger collection of really bad ones!!!) I'll let you chose which one you think will be the most workable. Reply on the forum or PM Me.

very interested in hearing the results back from people who are going to use your service.

Guys, Please post your overall feedback as I will be interested in doing business if the reviews are positive.

rharper83 · Jan 20, 2010

Well I would give you some feedback, but I'm still waiting for a reply from the PM I sent a few days ago...

uh, maybe the time it takes to build the website, the experience he may have that you dont, ...that's like saying to a builder "well I supplied the materials, so what exactly am I paying you for, for this nice extension you have built.
