      50,000 USD or 50,000 PHp?

      I believe your budget has a greater role in this endeavor of yours.

      Also, do you live here in the Philippines already? If so, take time to get some info about the business industry here. Continue doing your research and write down all your plans in a piece of paper. After that, take action.

          Hey I'm not a Filipino though I have many Filipino friends. No matter which market you're in anywhere around the world, I suggest you take time magiclouie suggested. Go slow and don't rush. $50k can be depleted VERY QUICKLY in IM without careful planning.

          All the best to you!

    I see a lot of people ask the same question.

    See, I live in Canada. Should I use a .CA or .COM domain name?

    Since your website will be seeing by many people around the world in the future, I would go with a .com

    i think 50,000 is a lot of money in our country. 2.1 million pesos you can build an apartment and for rent it. Don't waste your money in IM if you are a newbie. learn and research first if you wanted too.

    Don't compete with the big fishes. Find your niche.

      I beg to disagree why not compete if he wants too. Its his choice. If he want to dream why not dream big?. The only problem is to get members to post. why not give them reward for posting.like giveaway stuff every month or referral contest. Filipino love freebies. You probably lose some money at first but you gain more after.

    Philippine based ad sites have high volume traffic compared to blog sites. The internet is a free market so you can compete anytime you want to if you think you have resources for it. Goodluck!
