Live Earth Cam sites?

3 replies
I'm always racking my brain of ways to make automatic money online as many diverse attempts have failed miserably including some Kindle books that I recently wrote, just flopped with $9 in sales, I don't know how to jump start this marketing for them, despite that Amazon supposedly has the marketing built in.

I'm curious how much a site like this makes, EarthCam - Webcam Network
and would you pull in any ads if you set up webcams on your street, or on a mountain top, or a village? I don't know how you'd do that, or if they'd be waterproof, or someone's camera pointed through a window. Looks like they have set-up instructions at:
EarthCam - Webcam Network

This one has a cat sleeping, and another animal shelter had a camera up, really good idea to raise funds for them.

I wonder what kind of camera you need.

Has anyone tried this? My marketing attempts have failed miserably so I guess I'm a little jaded. I've tried selling a weight loss supplement, set up a whole e-commerce store only to find they're meticulously hard to maintain. I've tried youtube ads, and my videos never even get hits, something I put up 2 years ago has a few hits, like 14,000 but I think you need way more to even get some decent income and you need to pay for promotion on youtube. I have another technology interview series that might profit and be of interest on a tech. topic, I have comedy online on createspace. I'm recording some nature recordings to try to sell them on Amazon. Quite varied but not really one cent so far. I'm ideally looking for "set it and forget it" income now, such as Kindle books. Jaded! Not afraid to admit it really. Just trying to see what's out there. Even when you take e-commerce classes in a college, no one really tells you how to make money, that wasn't really addressed.

    So that's it with Kindle, huh? What built in marketing are you referring to? I think you (and many others) need to stay with one thing because almost NOBODY gets it right away. Something worth having is worth sticking to until you figure it out.

    I've been around a while and it's only after a little more than a year that my Kindle sales are picking up nicely. That wouldn't have happened if I jumped out of the race. Good luck, whatever you decide to do.

    Just imagine how much you could of made if you would have put all that energy and time (and I assume investment) into just one thing.
