    6) None of the above.

    These are all incredibly saturated markets.

    Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

      Kmagnet,

      I think you should step back and ponder what a business model really entails.

      SEO, list building, and PPC are not business models but rather tools that businesses use to increase their "reach" or exposure into the markets.

      YouTube and Facebook are marketing venues where ads can be placed and prospects approached, but again, neither is a business model.

      Many of the business owners here on the Warrior Forum use all 5 of these tools and venues in their marketing. There really is no need to think that they are in any way mutually exclusive. One is not better than another. Use them all, at the same time if you wish, to market what and how you sell your products or service.

      I'm not trying to be critical of your thinking but your business model is something quite different than how or where you advertise.

    These are all tools not business models! I think of a business model more like

    1. Authority Site
    2. Several sites in smaller niches
    3. Kindle ebooks
    4. Creating and selling apps
    5. Being an ebook publisher

    Etc....

    Then I'd use each of those tools to help promote it.

    As Steve said

    NONE of what you posted are business models, they are all business STRATEGIES.

    Model does not equal strategy.

    Examples of business models:
    - Affiliate Marketing (promoting other peoples products)
    - Product Creation
    - Freelancing
    - MLM
    - Services
    - Content Creation (yt, blogging)

    Numero dos for the win.

    The more important part would be about how the list building gets done.

    Jeff, this is the second time I saw you sighing. Feeling sleepy?

    To OP, I agree with Steve that these are just strategies to grow your business and NOT models.

    Here's my choice though (in order).

    1. Kindle sales.
    2. List cultivation.
