I have been thinking of starting a copon site

5 replies
I know there are some big competiters such as retailmenot dot com.. but i was thinking more towards a local coupon site with coupons from local bussiness..

Can anyone give me an insight on whats ahead and if its possible to turn this idea from nothin to somethin...

    There is nothing like to competitive (unless you are targeting a Product Name Keyword on Clickbank) you just have to find the right angle.

    In your case you could try targeting keywords with the following extensions:

    city
    state

    I.e

    "Walmart coupons in detroit"

      Thanks, thats exactly what I was thinking. Would it be possible to optimize a script like couponpress to do this..?

      I hope to hear from more warriors who have done a project like this.

        google tried to buy groupon.com for 6 billion and they rejected the offer... must be a great market.

          That must really be an awesome market. But if you pick your beans right your stomach won't hurt. I just typed for example "Dominos coupon", and i got only 19,000 results. the keyword gets 90,000 global searches and 74,000 local.

          Well, your research plays a big role even in these big niches.

    That is a tough niche to crack. I have actually designed websites for 10+ coupon sites in the last 5 months. I believe only 2 are doing anything decent now. Just make sure you have a decent business plan for it!
