Thinking of starting a humor site

[s2kinteg916]

how hard would it be to promote a humor site ? i have a real good niche... that can make some revenue...

my only concern is marketing a humor site..to get high traffic... since that will definately be the key... to making revenue...

I think if you had alot of content link exchages will bring all the traffic you need. Ask Dave M.

It's competitive, but if you have a good niche then I don't see the problem...

I was speaking to some guy a little while back that had a humor site. He was getting good traffic, to the extent that his database was crashing at peak times. He made good money from Burst I think it was.

Humor sites are out of favour with ad networks these days.... generally, they don't provide much quality traffic (from an advertiser's point of view).

I think it would be pretty easy to get traffic. The issue is turning that traffic into revenue. Not saying it's impossible, just difficult :).

Plus you have to deal with getting content -- which may or may not be copyrighted, so you'll always have the risk of a lawsuit.
