Video based classified adverts: The next generation classified advertising program where people can upload a video instead of text/photos. The videos can be placed on various categories and flagged by community on appropriate content.

Imagine creigslist with videos instead of text ads. Users can demonstrate the product they are willing to sell and place a better pitch than they could have with normal text based ads. Add appropriate tags to their listing and these tags can be converted to keywords for search engine optimization.

Marketing:
1. Viral marketing: Posters/listers can sign-in to their popular email or social networking sites and email all their friends about the listing right from the site’s interface. Estimate cost: $0
2. SEO: Good optimization can help products get better spotlight and in return more users on the site. Estimate cost: $0 to $10,000

A clean web 2.0 interface and ajax rich website.
Estimate development cost in USA: $40,000 to $80,000
Estimate development cost offshore: $10,000 to $20,000
Estimate development time: 3 to 6 months.

About Me

Like most of the people living in USA, I recently joined 'the two jobs on shoulder' club. Working my ass off throughout the day as a software consultant and at night as a freelance web developer, this is my attempt at earning $1.1 million in 3 years. While this blog is mainly focused at freelancing, I take pleasure in writing about other things that interests me. If you like any of my posts, please do subscribe! And also keep an eye on my goals list ;) More
