Re: Poll: Who is making some $$$
 

Bob, thanks for joining in.

if you ever get hold of that plugin send me the link. Phil thinks so far ahead and faster than I do, that it's sometimes hard for me to keep up;)

I'm working my way through the list of links he posted, to get an idea of what's needed in order to earn more than a couple of dollars for a 500+ word article.

I've never been able to work out what keeps holding me back. I certainly put the hours in. If you believe in the 10,000 hours to mastery theory, then I must surely be a master of something, twice over, given the time I've put in over the years:D

Maybe I'm jumping off the wrong high dive or haven't gotten enough water in the pool to make a splash... perhaps I should have been born an Orca...:)

The big watches do sell online Bob, I've seem some really big auction sales over on ebay and Amazon has some big brash expensive ones for sale.

Any and all suggestions warmly received.

Happy Christmas to you Bob and holiday greetings to all SOWPUBBERS.

Paul.

Hi,

quick update:

I'm looking into the suggestions posted by Dien Phil and Ankesh for the watch site. Since my last post, visitors have disappeared, so I'm stumped, but still looking at how to get things moving.

Best regards,

Paul.

Another wristwatch niche...?
 

Thanks Phil,

That's a great article you linked to!

The great thing is - people could do what he did, for other niches too... Use him as a model...

Regarding watches specifically, it just occurred to me - I love mechanical self-winding watches! I've had a few in the past... I love them. I find them a little bit "magical"...

No electronics at all. But it works - and you never have to wind it. For some reason, I love the whole concept. They often look quite beautiful, too...

I wonder if there are other people "out there" who are like this, too? Who knows, it might be a viable niche in itself... (More research may be needed!)

Best wishes,

Dien

Phil,

Thank you. Benjamin Clymer's site is wonderful. I visit regularly. Would love any of watches he and his team talk about, but they are way out of my price range.

Who would have thought that a site named "Hodinkee" would get almost half a million visitors every month. His advertising income must be huge...

All the best,

Paul.
