Idea popped out of nowhere.. would it work?

[Aly]

So i made few buck thanks to this forum last year through instagram cpa and selling some instagram accounts and some adsense money through youtube but have been busy Since then..

Now before going to bed i just got this idea popping in my head

In my country people are so interrested in news in general they would literally believe anything and click any link before their eyes on facebook no matter how much clickbaiting the title would be. Plus they like to share it to everyone they know.

So my idea would be to buy a hosting+domain and start a news blog/website with a catchy name plus creating Facebook / Twitter / Instagram pages and start botting for followers.

Idea is to create small quality articles daily related to current news ( local , worldwide , sports and mostly celebrities news) with clickbaiting titles of course and nice pictures and videos maybe then share them in an approriate way on social platforms. Grow little by little and build a nice audience (with the help of bots ofc)

I would get my content (news) by scraping maybe or copying even maybe translating other news pages and website and edit them since that would be the best and easiest way then share them through few clicks to all my platforms.
Then monetize through ads
But most of all i need to find a way to share through whatsapp since whatsapp is the most used platform here and people use it all day long to share anything between them.

Would this be a nice long term project? Do you think that would work and what should i add maybe

Based on what you said we might be from the same country lol

of course it would work there's 100,000s doing it already, however you need to target your audience and have your opinion on things.would probably need writers etc

Depends on what you exactly mean with clickbait title.

There was a scandal like this going on in Italy last year. Where there were news websites posting clickbait/fake news and banking hard with them.

If you are planning to monetize with Adsense, then don't waste your time and effort on tier 3 traffic.

Thanks for the info. I should find other ways to monetize then. Even though half of the traffic should be coming from europe and usa since a lot people from here live abroad

Try to use the multi quote feature when answering! Anyway it would work but are you sure you are up to the task? There are always hundreds of news everyday and with you being alone could be a heavy job.

 

[CrytpicShipper]

You think these individuals that are creating these clickbait titles just happen to create these titles on accident?

Of course not, they know it's going to bring traffic to their site. So essentially you answered your own question, you just had to think a little harder.

I thought it was Italy

 

[light2298]

It's India isn't it

if it's old people they click on any old shit even if its a cat missing after 3 years

creating Facebook / Twitter / Instagram pages and start botting for followers.

You do realise that this essential process is the hardest and unreliable. Just opening accounts and following few users is triggering the account block.

Also, Facebook is very quick to crackdown on fake news sites or news sites with unreliable sources.

I'm not trying to put fear or discourage in you. I'm just telling you what will happen if you do what you want to do.

nope its lebanon

if it's old people they click on any old shit even if its a cat missing after 3 years

exactly lol

viralnova grew quickly and banked big time because of how fb worked. there were a lot of people who copied the model, but fb updated a lot. even though it's a 3rd world country I guess you might have troubles scaling it.

Let me guess.. You are from the Philippines

We got websites like this in Germany and they generate lots of traffic. They are like Buzzfeed. Basically full of clickbait and articles like "10 life hacks you should try - number 6 changed my life" etc. Seems to work pretty well.

The only problem is creating lots of interesting content in the first place. This means not three articles per day, but probably 30 articles per day. One person can't do that. The goal is to make at least of one those articles go viral on social media and gain relevancy.
