Hello,
I feel like I have been a wantrepreneur many times before in my life and this thread is dedicated to it stopping. I have already done a fair amount of work toward the project I am working on and will continue to chronicle it here. I won't explain the full details of the site I am working on but basically there is information on the internet that can be scraped and shown to users for profits. The particular information that I plan on showing my users has never been scraped before. There are competitor websites focusing on different information in the same category that charge more than $100 a month to their subscribers. I figure if I even charge $50 a month if I can get 100 subscribers minimum that is technically enough money for me to quit my job. I could just use this information for my own profit but the real money is in selling shovels not mining for gold. I am going to post on here every day barring days that I have to go on work trips in which case I work >16 hour days where I don't have time to work on this project. Currently, I spend 3 hours at least every day towards the project. I have a fiance, full-time job, and workout so that takes some of my time as well.
What I have done so far:
I already wrote a python script that scrapes this profitable information and stores it in a MySQL database. I have created a blank website that is already connected to this database and displays all of this data on the webpage for users to profit off of.
What I need to work on:
-Improving the script so it runs on a loop.
-Finding the best place to run this script continuously.
-Continue talks with Upwork freelancer about logo design.
-Work on website and find plugins that turn your website into a membership website.
-Study competitor reviews and websites.
