What I would do if this were my domain is create a content rich site that search engines would eat up, with a lot of strategic sponsor placement of ppc, rev share and product referrals. Gear your articles and blog towards your sponsors and link to the sponsors from the articles. You can find content writers for very inexpensively via GetAFreelancer or here DNForum, I use UN: myst woman from DNForum. Get them to write a handful of original 150 - 250 word cliff hanger articles for you and you add them the the site to keep the content fresh and updated, as well lean on some automated rss feeds of sorts to fill in the blank spots of the site, preferred monetized rss feed if you can find it for this niche.

Build it up with traffic and 1 way links in 1 years time you can flip it for a very profitable amount, or you may decide not to cause you have good revenue coming in from monetizing it with sponsors and products.


Little tangent guys, sorry. Dont know if you have noticed and I cant think of the examples off the top of my head at the moment. Lately on TV commercials I have noticed a increasing number of branded companies with branded websites are acquiring domains names that are catchy for national multi media advertisement campaigns.

I can envision a large company like "Kraft" purchasing a domain name like this "HealthyFoodSecrets.com" because it has traffic and has a memorable ring that you will remember whether it is in print ad, radio jingle or tv comercial.

It's probably not as good as your idea, I thought of this half baked idea in a matter of 75 seconds +/- a second.

From the hip thats what I got, what do you think, am I a little out there for you.....lol!
No, you are not "out there" at all. I actually really appreciate the time you took to share your two cents. I wanted to let everyone know that I have started development on the domain after the great response I received from this thread. I will be adding more to the site as it develops.

By the way, Joomla is unbelievable and I highly recommend it. I'm adding ad sense, affiliates, blog, forum, testimonials, personal trainer, and Ebook..Now I need to finish working on the site and get on the SEO. If you guys have any thoughts on what I'm adding feel free to let me know.
