http://spacedelta.com - Your own website, hassle free

* Highly engaged handful of clients * Fully automatic (demo accounts, paypal recurring payments, domain/mail purchase and association, etc.,) * Expenses ~50$ (hosting and providers) * Profits ~250$ / month (paying clients)

Website builder focused in easy of use, aiming to solve online presence for freelances and small businesses (website, email and domain).

Established since 2011, we have still some customers from the very beginning.

It's not exactly a side project, it has been an established business for the last 3 years, but we've struggled to grow it with no success.

Looking for someone that could take it to the next level.

I don't see why it's better to create a general portfolio app. Then what's the strategy to get new clients? I mean, the purpose of the categories is to have landing pages that rank on google and have good score for adwords

Yes, I am using amazon affiliates, which pays me a 4% on all the purchases we refer.

Thx for the info on other shopping affiliate platforms (I didn't know them), but right now my focus is on trying to get traction and traffic to the site. After that we'll see the best way to monetize it

I think that you get the whole thing wrong. GuysHelpMeDecide is a tool where you enter a question for example:

* What iphone should I buy?

And lets you enter 2 or 3 choices:

* iPhone 4S 16GB white * iPhone 4S 16GB black

The key here is that the search for this products is light fast and easy. It grabs from amazon.com the title of the product, image, description and even the price, but let's you modify it (if you don't want the price to be public or you want to customize the description with your opinion on that product).

Once created the poll it appears on your facebook friends wall, if they click on the story they'll see the page with the question, the choices and they'll be able to vote and to comment.

See a quick iPhone color example here:

None of your friends needs necessarily to own an iPhone for providing a valid opinion.

I have endless conversation with my geek friends about the new LCD HD whatever 3D tv and none of us have ever tried it.

Hope it gets clearer now

I probably prefer expert opinions while buying tech products (for example a new HD TV), but I'll give much more credit to a friends' first hand experience on that same TV than the expert advise. That's the base idea of guyshelpmedecide.com

And as for the success opinion I fully agree with you. I don't pretend to create an overnight million dollar business from that, it was just an experiment that looks nice for me

Thx for commenting.

I'm using affiliate links to monetize it too, but it definitely it is not a company or something that needs to break even in x months. Actually I had a great time coding it and I learnt a lot about the technologies it uses (facebook open graph, amazon apis, twitter bootstrap...) so in terms of ROI it's already covered by far.

Being said that, of course I want it to be huge. Not as the next pinterest because it'd require lots of resources and energy but more like a bootstraped project that grows organically and we'll see.

In other words, I built something that I want to use (no other ambitions), and right now I am wondering if it could be something mainstream or not

The idea is pretty simple: A tool that helps you get feedback from your friends on shopping decisions.

Don't know what book to read? With this tool you can set up a poll with some choices and your facebook friends will be able to comment and vote the best option.

This is my attempt to make something cool, simple and viral.

For those interested: -Uses Twitter Bootstrap as CSS Framework. -PHP for server side technology (with codeigniter MVC framework). -jQuery used heavily on frontend. -Amazon API. -Facebook Open Graph API.

I didn't build that for the money, but all the amazon links are affiliate links, so I'll get a 4% :D (Let's see if this covers the hosting at least).

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated
