I need you ideas on what to do with a website

[flishess]

I have had webmasteronline.us for a while, however I am stumped. I want to develope it into a site, can you guys give me any suggestions?

 

[bentong]

from the name itself, you can only develop it as a webmaster forum but maintaining a forum is not an easy task and it takes alot of work..

 

[flishess]

I think there are many more webmaster related sites out there that don't pertain to just forums.

 

[peter phillips]

Well I think this name would be most suitable for a forum. Btw can you provide a few examples of webmaster related sites out there that don't pertain to just forums?

Since you are not interested in developing a forum with that name, you could develop a site on that name with a similar concept of one of those sites whose links you have provided above.

I think maybe a tutorial site. How to video, instructional manuals, class room type forums. Contests and design workshops. Like a webmasters school or bootcamp.

IMHO

:imho: it could be a webmaster services offering webmastery sort of like:
http://worldlancer.com/
or
http://getafreelancer.com/
still a community between 2 types of people (1) the buyer and (2) the webmaster accepting paid jobs your site could be the middle "man" of some sort earning a percentage on every job placed on it.

I found a script that allows you to setup an online school, you can actually hold online classes, have quizes, tests, learning programs, etc.

Would anyone be interested in helping to setup this type of service, there would be alot to do, but after everything is setup we can hold sessions and charge session fees, etc.

I think this would be a big project, however I think it has some potential.

http://moodle.org/

There are so many webmaster related courses we could setup, I think a great course to start with would be an SEO course.

I have seen lots of sites try to accomplish an seo course through email, I am sure you have seen them, "Learn SEO when you sign up for our newsletter" (and then you start getting Email 1 of 50, blah, blah, blah) and then you start getting emails with lists of search engines and directories to submit to, and they never actually teach the art of SEO.

We would need people who have mastered the art of ranking high on search engines using SEO.

We could start with a complete start to finish on selecting a domain name, to setting up a website for search engine optimization.

If anyone else is interested please help elaborate on where we could go with this type of project.

This is off of the Moodle website... www.moodle.org

"Moodle is a course management system (CMS) - a free, Open Source software package designed using sound pedagogical principles, to help educators create effective online learning communities. You can download and use it on any computer you have handy (including webhosts), yet it can scale from a single-teacher site to a 40,000-student University..."

It is Open Source so we could customize this however we wanted, we would need...

Programmers
Web Disgners
SEO Experts

Tell me what you guys think.

 

[dreday12]

Maybe develop a chatroom.

 

[deleted984054565403]

That sounds like a nice name for a tutorial site. Webmaster chat/forums are too broad.

 

[dreday12]

Tutorial site, thats a solid idea.

 

[softgroups]

Put a simple webmaster forum on it, or a simple webdirectory with webmaster related links ....

 

[sjaguar13]

I like the webmaster web directory idea. I think the domain fits it pretty well. The online class room thing would be hard to get going unless you had some sort of certification or something to make the class worthwhile. Even with a certification, it would be nothing. If you wanted to do it for newbies to learn who aren't real good at reading and doing it themselves, I doubt you could charge very much for the class and it would take a lot of work.

 

[abhinav]

Well you can jus do is try something unique with it.
Something with misture of many things on one site.

 

[aotgroup]

I think you could develop a site along the lines of webmonkey.com. I've found this site really usefull.

Starting a webmaster forum will be a tough today...
