Okay, So i've spent like 20-30$ trying to figure out SOME website Idea that'll get me hooked, and eventually bring some cash.

My webhost is Not working out too well, which I paid 10$ for. I can't seem to promote.
KEEP it? LEAVE it?

If I keep, how to get people to signup?? The packages are SERIOUSLY INSANELY LOW PRICES! (http://www.quifoo.com)



I've tried forums, and whenever I upload them, they always get messed up and won't work right. So that idea is kind of gone.

I have an image uploader that is sitting still. http://www.voluximgs.co.cc
It's good because you can login and store images, but hard to promote. How to make better??
KEEP it? LEAVE it?



New idea of mine: Blogging
As said up their ^^^^^^^^^^ I have quifoo.com. I could switch quifoo.com to a blog about technology/coding and/or gaming.
Go for it? Don't even try?



GamingSector.info
I have tried to do a forum, tried to make it an arcade, all sorts of problems. Or I could make it a blog about gaming and such. I have a good template i'm in the process of making (via Photoshop) which I could take out, upload and use it for that domain. It would take A LOT of work though.


Also could just try to sell the domains, as they don't expire for about 11 months?


Any more ideas? I know these are random posts, but please respond to some, if not all of what I am asking. Good ideas and responses = +rep 🙂. Thanks!

P.S. - tried to color-code to make it easier to separate the things 😉.
 
I had this issue once. Right now, I am free, just owning one site, but its to help others, so I don't mind if I get no one, it just doesn't benefit them.

To be honest:

-Webhost: remove it as you may think they are low, there are even lower priced hosts. Also, it doesn't appear your on your own VPS, so that may cause some issues with uptime etc.

-Image uploader: that means you still need a host, and if you want it to succeed, you will need a large bandwidth and space, plus the design isn't too great. So I would remove it.

-Blog: always a tough one but can you commit to making one post per day, or around 10 posts per week? If you can't commit, then its not really the right thing for you.

-GamingSector: same thing with blog commitment.

If they are things you can't commit to long term then I would steer clear from them. Selling your domains might be a good thing, or at least wait for the next PR update and see if you can get extra cash as its ranked.

😉
 
Though, I would say your domains won't make you much 🙂 just my little 2 cents, I agree with dotDavid:

You obviously are not paying for a good host nor are you reselling or have a dedicated or VPN (so, with this in mind, you are probably violating TOS by reselling space on your server).

As with what dotDavid said, you are probably not on a great plan so having a place to store images might not be the best idea.

Blogging is probably your best bet, get committed and make great, kinda lengthy, unique and content orientated posts. This will help with SEO, I would learn more about SEO and how it works with content in order to help your efforts. If you are going blogging, you can do that for both of those two domains and just change up the info a bit, or have on focused on technology, the other on gaming. This will lessen the amount of content you have, but be more of a niche and bring in more content, which means more advertisement = more money 🙂
 
Actually..my host Was hosted on a reseller server..eleven2.com. and I could Always find a good host with lots of bandwidht for my image hoster.

1) So you were trying to resell on a reseller? That is a dumb idea, just saying

2) 99% of servers don't allow for external PHP scrips to be run, so, unless you plan on using stupid iFrames the rest of the time you will not even be able to go down that route.
