Being an avid Facebook user, whenever an update to the site has been made, there is an outrage amongst the entire community. Most users despise the change that Facebook has decided to bring to the table. Now, while Facebook is pretty good at reading community comments on their fan page, a good idea would be to create a website with the sole purpose to let Facebook know exactly what everyone wants on this very user-heavy website.

Keywords

Facebook and petition are both great search terms. Google yields very good results for the combination of the two words.

Is this a new idea?
I have yet to find a site completely dedicated to talking to Facebook directly.

The Plan
Create a domain using keywords related to Facebook petitions. Such as “FB Petitions.” Refrain from using Facebook in the name to avoid any infringement. A blog wouldn’t be a good idea because it will seem more of a rant than an actual suggestion to Facebook.

• Allow user submitted petitions, or just have one featured petition.
• Get users to comment or show enthusiasm toward the petition.

How will I get site visitors? And how can I make $money from this site?
Create a fan page of your website on Facebook, and send an invitation to everyone you know. The word will spread and your site will gain recognition from the Facebook community and maybe someone higher up on the Facebook staff. Advertisers might want to contact you for ad opportunities if your site grows and is well maintained.

This site idea is not limited to Facebook. Your site can also include petitions for Twitter, MySpace, or other social networking sites.

Facebook users are famous for their clever status updates; some are funny, some are sad, and some are quite indescribable. In this entry we will more specifically discuss the growing popularity of status updates amongst users on Facebook.

Keywords
There’s the occasional reference to Facebook in every day casual conversation. “Did you see what John wrote as his status on Facebook? It was so funny!” With the growing popularity of users wanting to find a good status update for Facebook to impress their friends, use this to your advantage. “Funny Facebook Statuses,” Funny Facebook Status Updates,” “Clever Status Updates,” etc.

Is this a new idea?
This idea has probably been floating around since status updates started gaining more popularity with the release of Twitter. But is there an ultimate database with status updates for you to submit, rate, or view? Not yet.

The Plan
Create a domain using keywords related to status updates. Such as “Funny Status Updates.” Refrain from using Facebook in the name to avoid any infringement. If you’re not willing to pay for a domain and hosting that covers just one game, you could always get a free blog.

• Allow an easy to use submission form for users to share their status updates.
• Moderate the Facebook statuses that are submitted to your website.
• For efficiency, display updates in a textual format rather than a screen captured image. It will be easy for both you and your end users to use. A great example of a popular text-heavy website is FMyLife.com.
• Display a good number of statuses on the main page with pagination system. Example: 20 per page.
• Rate statuses on a 5-star scale.
• Advanced ideas: Categorize statuses (Funny, Sad, Random, etc.), Sort statuses (Newest, Oldest, Most Popular, Least Popular, Random 20).

How will I get site visitors? And how can I make $money from this site?
Your keywords will be a popular search and you will get a fair amount of search engine traffic.
Earning money on this site will not be a difficult task. Since your site is going to be mainly text, you can use Google Adsense’s text-link type ads. Format the ad’s links, background and foreground colors to coincide with your website. If it blends with your site, the users are more likely to read the links and find interest in the advertisement.

This site idea is not limited to Facebook. Your site can also include status updates from Twitter, MySpace, and other social networking sites.

Comment this entry with your funny status updates.

Users of all ages are constantly using Instant Messengers, IRC, Chat Rooms, etc etc. as means of communication with friends, family, strangers, or even programmed bots. What better idea than to archive those conversations! It will serve as means to look back on a memorable moment, be it funny or informative.

Keywords
The keywords used in this website could be “_____ quote database,” or “_____ chat database,”  where you can fill in “____” with the chat style, be it IRC, AIM, etc. You could also replace “database” with “archive” or “logs” depending on the end user you want to attract. Or better yet, you can use all those words and optimize your site accordingly.

Is this a new idea?
A popular quote database already exists: Bash.org. Bash already is an established and well known site, but you can make it better. They currently don’t have any form of advertisement on their site, and with an Alexa Rank of 12,000 at the time of this post, I am baffled! They do have a place for donations via Paypal, but they could easily profit from the submissions of the everyday user.

The Plan
Create a domain using some of the keywords that are listed above. Or create a brandable 4-6 letter domain that people can easily remember because they will want to come back. (Example: Bash. Bash is easy to remember as well as its .org extension)

Here is a general site outline:

• Sort quote listings by: Most Popular, Least Popular, Highest Rated, Lowest Rated, Newest, Oldest, Random, Search. You can always change the names of these or even add your own ideas if you have some. But this is just a general idea.

• Moderate, moderate, moderate! This is one thing Bash.org does not seem to do as often. I can’t stress this enough, be actively rejecting, accepting quote submissions to ensure more traffic. New content = more reason to keep coming back.

How can I earn money?
Because your site will be mainly text, it will be a good idea to use text formatted ads from Google Adsense or another program. They will blend well with your site if your placement matches your site layout. This will increase your chances at a click for cash!

Facebook is a powerhouse social networking sites that allows developers to create applications for users to entertain themselves with. In this entry we will more specifically discuss the growing popularity of flash games amongst users on Facebook.

Keywords
The keywords used in this website would be “____ walkthrough,” “____ cheats,” “____ tips,” “____ hacks,” etc. where “____” = the name of the Facebook app (or Facebook game as it is more commonly identified). We’ll take this one step furthur and focus on one particular game Restaurant City created by Playfish.

Is this a new idea?
This idea is not unique since there are already websites out there that have some form of tips/strategy to the Facebook games out there, but the fact that there are so few in existence gives YOU the logical opportunity to jump on this growing niche.

The Plan
Create a domain using keywords related to this “strategy guide” website. Such as “RC Tips.” Refrain from using the actual game title to avoid any infringement. If you’re not willing to pay for a domain and hosting that covers just one game, you could always get a free blog.

• Choose a popular game on Facebook with millions of monthly users
• Try to make frequent updates on the latest news of the game
• Whenever the game updates, make it a priority to update your site with the latest information. This will get you indexed on Google faster, and first (if your site covers a game that another site covers).

How will I get site visitors? And how can I make $money from this site?
Seeing as your keywords are a popular search, you can get quite a bit of traffic to your site if you follow the plan correctly. The emphasis on creating separate pages for each category is so you can get more pages from your site indexed on a popular search engine like Google. And rather than listing every pick up line you have on one page (like many sites do), you will have them organized, meaning when someone searches for “funny pick up lines” they will more likely stumble upon your site because it’s a specific type of pick up line they want.
To make money from this site, you’re going to want to place some advertisements on your site. Great programs include: Google Adsense and BuySellAds.com.
A great site already in existence is Light Chan. Don’t copy this site exactly, but rather, use this site as inspiration to start your own!

Light Chan covers popular games by Playfish and Zynga

Many of us have heard of those cheesy pick up lines for men & women. We also know they don’t really work, but they do bring out a few laughs. So here’s a website idea!

Keywords
The keywords used in this website would be “Pick up lines.” If you do a search on Google, the results for this search phrase is over 50 million! And the exact phrase using quotations yields close to 1 million results. From this we can tell sites l

Is this a new idea?
This idea is not unique since there are already websites out there that have pick up lines listed. BUT we have tips that can make lead you on your way to building a successful site.

The Plan
Set up categories for each pick up line to be specifically placed into.

• Pick creative categories for user-friendly browsing: Bad, Funny, Romantic, etc.
• Create separate pages for each category and list the pick up lines within.
