I would appreciate your feedback

Today I bought the domain www.SoCrazy.com with the intent to develop it..

Here's what I am thinking.

make a website where people that are involved with extreme and not only sports can upload their pics and videos. Bmx, skateboard,mountainbike,trial,car racing, and anything else that can fall under the term "So Crazy"

Give out $$ prices for the most crazy video etc... by having users vote....

Having extreme sports links primarilly in the US...

and so on... you get the idea...

I do realize it would require a good amount of $$ to get it marketed and designed the right way....

What do you think? Any honest input/suggestion is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Nikos

PS. Great website :hehe:

[/Moving to the "Website Development" Forum, however].
Thanks, and Best of Luck here Nikos.

nice idea but if u really want to make a crazy site feature the site around me and my crazy domain prices

Good idea Nikos. As you say, it would take time and "some" $$$. Maybe not as many as u think. Just good, strategic marketing and you will soon attract people from the word of mouth.

Good luck, and if u have any other questions, I'm sure someone here at NP can assist you. There are ALOT of helpfull people...

I would be interested in designing this site. Thats always a good start. AIM me at dpk87 or PM me for a look at my portfolio.

Nice idea it could work. Keep trying to develop.

 

[nikos]

thanks for the replies...

In its worst money hungry form it could become a "jackass" site where people are sending in the most crazy video clips...

And them we will get sued:P

I know my son would visit such a site (about a 100x a day!).

Good idea! Good-luck!

The thing is those sites, you'd have to make your money from your own program because advertisers tend to not accept sites like that.

I like this idea, kind of like "Funniest Home Videos" ... certainly you'd need all of the necessary disclaimers, releases, legal preparations, but it's doable, IMHO.
Just a cursory start on development and getting it listed in some of the engines at this point would be a great start toward that ultimate endeavor.
Keep up the good work here, Nikos.

Thanks Coolhost. One question: By getting listed in the search engines, are you talking about the URL submission, (like Cpanel has) in the googlebot etc... or are you talking about paid services?

The former, Nikos ... and sorry for the delay in getting back to you here. With your intentions to develop the domain, and after getting a start on it ... I thought if you could also plan to get it some initial exposure/placement out on the engines you'd be in good shape and hit-the-ground running at time of full deply, IMHO.
Thanks.

The 4Images script could handle the back end thus development costs should remain somewhat low as no custom script would be needed. Sets up in a matter of minutes and adding pics/clips is a snap via the Site/Script Admin Panel.
