Just wondering how does someone become a site owner? What are the perks and the downfalls to being a site owner. Just wondering, I see a lot of site owners on this forum and I am curious.

There's got to be more than that. WHat about the affiliates. How hard is it to get them onboard? And then, of course, how do they pay. Do I need to have alot of money upfront to get this started, or can I rely on affiliate money to pay those who cash out my site.

the first rule of starting a freebie site
you do not ask how to start a freebie site

Interested in purchasing a ready to go freebie site? I;ve got one on the lock-down and am looking for a buyer, its ready to be approved by affiliates. If you are interested, its around $1400 + 2 year support and ability for custom scripts.

I also have to agree. I'm obviously not a site owner myself, but if I invested all the time and money into figuring out how to get started I certainly wouldn't want to give that information away. These site owners found out how to do it - I'm sure with some dedication and understanding of what to look for - you can too.

Plus it doesn't look good to people wanting to start your site if you yourself are unsure of where to begin.

I've been using freebie sites for a little while now, but from the looks of it, between crediting and arranging affiliates (good ones at least), having good customer support, fraud prevention (and being able to take losses) and managing your time, it seems like a full time job. I'm sure the payout is good, but I myself don't have the will to do that.

I mean I sometimes lose interest in a site midstream. I guess if you filed your articles of incorporation or LLC papers, you could pay yourself benefits and make it tax deductible or however that works, it could be worth it as a full time job, but these are all annoyances you have to worry about when running any business, and I think if you put that much time and money into it, you may as well start a business that will make more money than a freebie site. The problem is coming up with the idea, freebie site scripts are already there, so I guess it's somewhat easier. For people who are running them, as side income generation, or as a first business, it sounds like awesome experience, and I'm sure any employer would really be impressed if you interviewed and told them about the ideas behind the sites and the scene in general. It's like it's own mini free economy (buying/selling greens haha).

Anyway, sorry to get off track, that's my 2 cents as a site user (not owner) but from the viewpoint of running my own business in the past.

I'd say you should have at least $3,000 before you start a site. The rest is just a lot of work. haha.
