What is the best way to decide if it is worth time to "do it better" than a current site? I know nothing about programming, very little about starting websites, and nothing about the statistics of a website. I am very eager to learn everything I need to know about this to start the site, but I will learn as I go. I need to know if a site that I am thinking about starting will be worth the time.
I checked out a website that is doing basically the exact same thing I want to do (didn't know that anyone was already doing it...I had to look for them), but just by looking at it, I can execute better. I looked on dnScoop - Domain Name Value, History, Stats Tool and Forums and alexa to check traffic etc. but I am not exactly sure what this is telling me. My guess is that it should be very easy to compete with to make #1 :shruggie: 33% bounce rate seems very high. I also looked at keywords and there are about 200,000 searches monthly.
The website I was looking at specifically is garagesalefinder.com. Also, does anyone know what I can expect to make monthly from this type of site? It seems that all my revenue would be through ad clicks, but eventually, if this is something that others find value in, I could start selling certain services.
It would be great if someone could point me in the direction of figuring this out (good web articles/blogs/other threads on here/etc.) I am new to the fastlane way of thinking and even newer to internet business. Thanks to everyone in advance!
