Building A List Around Cannabis Or Video Games?

you can still buy pipes, papers, bongs, 420 clothes etc online. Market those products as an affiliate. make a blog about whats going on in the industry and network with activists all over the web. most people into 420 are also into ecigs, vapor and video games.

Thank you for the advice . I think i'm going to try it and see what happens. I'll keep everyone updated on my Cannabis blogging journey. If it works out, I might could show everyone what I did and someone else might be able to profit from it.

I'm not sure how that could have been any more stereotypical :rolleyes:

99.9% - dope smokers, right? LOL

1. That's true, Maybe it could be something cool to test

2. I see people on Youtube making profit off of it being activist. Magazines like High Times Magazine are really making a profit off of it. That is what gave me the idea

3. Oh yes, I could be proud of promoting something that's been proven to help cancer, seizures etc, Is safer then alcohol, and helps various other sickness and I could be proud of letting people know that it does not cause suicide, homicidal thoughts and Jungle Fever like it was portrayed in the 40s and if there is money to be made, I'm all for it.

4. Me and 50% of the country and that's true. That is why that stereotype needs to be broken which is another reason why I would like to be a part of the many blogs and youtubers so I could help enlighten people on a plant that's been around for thousands of years

5. If the Feds shut me down just for talking about Cannabis, That would be infringing on my Freedom Of Speech right?

6 . Awwh C,mon lol.


Thank you for the advice sir. It's something to think about, I take everything under consideration

i would go for it

I don't think you could have any less of a clue what you are talking about regarding this market. The guy telling you to shut your mouth was pushing limits,but the point he was making was completely on point. You really haven't got a clue what you're talking about, it's obvious you have a complete disconnect from the target demographic. It's like everything you know about marijuana has been regurgitated from the 6 o'clock news and bad college comedy flicks. There is a huge market for it, people spend tons of money on accessories, books, glass, and other related products. $600 vaporizers and $300-500 glass bongs fly off the shelves like hotcakes. Not every stoner lives off stale pizza and works part time at 7-11 to feed his pot habit. Each and every segment of your bulletpointed list is completely and utterly wrong. No questions, lol.

Why, don't want competition?

Wrong. There have been active marijuana communities on the net since the early-mid 90's. Further, there is a cat pushing a $37 info product, and it is a full on professional IM sales page, etc. He is probably making bank right now.

Internet is a big place - just because you don't hang out in every corner doesn't mean there isn't money there.

Umm ... you'd be surprised at the disposable income and professions of some stoners - I know a lot of them. I know PhDs, MSs, lawyers, business owners and yes, a medical doctor, etc., that smoke weed. Again, you are talking about stereotypes and your incorrect perceptions, not facts ...

Quite frankly, I don't know how some IMers in the Health/MMO niches sleep at night, let alone 'be proud'. Thanks dad, but considering I actually owned a marijuana dispensary in Colorado for a period of time, pride isn't a problem, on this issue.

I do, however, question those too scared to make money on something absolutely as ethical, if not more ethical than peddling alcohol (certainly more, because there ARE medicinal benefits to weed, unlike the nasty, physically addictive drug alcohol, that makes people kick their dogs and beat their children, murder, kill people in cars, etc. when they are hopped up on it, unlike weed), because they are afraid of what people might think.

Grab a spine and a pair and go make some legal and ethical money.

The hypocracy is laughable. Go ahead and work for a liquor company, and you have a good wholesome job, eh? Work with weed, a less harmful drug, by far, than alcohol, and one must hide their head in shame?

Perhaps if one is a hypocrite or spineless - but I'm neither.

So what? They are wrong, in large part. Who the hell cares? Thanks, dad. Again.

Read the Constitution and realize that the Federal government is in violation of said Constituiton, as they use article 10 - interstate commerce to regulate drugs. Medical marijuana originates and stays in state and is not subject to interstate commerce laws.

Further, you obviously aren't keeping up with the news and what the Obama Admin and Eric Holder have said about the issue - Follow your states laws and we leave you alone. Those are for the people growing and selling marijuana, not an info product, accessories, etc.

No, I do not suggest getting involved in selling seeds or advertising for seed banks as they are breaking the law as those seed banks, largely, are in places like the UK, Spain, Amsterdam, etc., where it is legal to sell cannabis seeds. DEA gets pissed when seeds come onto the US, so tread lightly with seeds.

Making money online in the weed niche is not the scary proposition you are painting it to be.

For what? Ya know, I'm going to trust the lawyers at places like Barnes & Nobles, over you, as you don't seem to really know what the hell you are talking about here. Walk into any one of their stores in Colorado, and you can choose from half a dozen books about how to grow weed.

You really don't know what you are talking about here. There is nothing illegal about selling an info product on how to grow weed. It is protected by the first amendment and multibillion dollar organizations, like Amazon, know this and sell those info products. Go ahead, look on Amazon for books on how to grow weed and then come back here with your Chicken Little routine again.

Well, Alex, I am a retired ski bum. I also need 3 surgeries on my spine and have some pretty serious nerve damage in my lower legs, losing feeling and some muscle use. I am in 24 hour/day pain and could eat handfuls, legally, of opiate based (heroin) narcotics that are physically addictive.

But I don't. because I do not want to become a junkie. So I smoke weed, instead. And quite frankly, your insults about people like me, being idiots, lazy, etc., stems from your ignorance about the subject and the stereotypes you were force fed and believed.

There is money to be made in this niche. And the niche will continue to grow.

Someone like me, with 20 years experience cultivating cannabis, well, I'm still deciding whether or not to throw my 150,000+ words onto an authority site and be patient, or to sell those words for at least $5,000 to a real IMer that understands the potential profits in this niche.

How 'bout the rest of ya that really don't know the first thing about the subjects, weed in general or the very active weed communities on the net, do a little research first, before you shoot from the hip insulting me, and the many other users of cannabis, both medical and recreational, that visit this site, with some hypocritical (ya'll won't touch the much harder drug, alcohol, in your criticisms), incorrect socially conservstive nonsense that came straight out of the religious propaganda film, Reefer Madness, in the 1930's.

I can give you the contact info of some people. A person, say, with cancer, using weed to help keep them alive, and you can shoot them of an email saying all of the insulting things about us 'dope heads' that you just did here. Up for that? Rnadomly insulting people dying of cancer because they smoke weed and, according to you, are too stupid to remember anything, lazy, poor and ought to be socially ostracized and 'banished from the herd' for using weed?

You obviously get marketing, LOL

No doubt a cookbook would do great and could be easily outsourced and sold for a few bucks. Sounds like a project for Brad Gosse and Ron Duckett!

As far as the rest of this thread... some good ideas and a lot of ignorance..."it's illegal! blah blah blah! my d!ck is little!"

If you have an interest, follow that interest, learn more about it, become an authority on it and monetize it. There are seed banks that have affiliate programs... a ton of stuff.

The world doesn't need another lame affiliate site on forex from someone that has no idea or interest in the subject. The world needs information from thinking individuals like you OP... friggin go for it

With all due respect, you don't have a clue what you are talking about. In 20 years it will be legal (at least for medicinal use) in all 50 states.

Ignorant people said the same thing about penicillin. What an insidious "drug" that is.

I think you're talking about alcohol

do you have any real proof it has ever killed anyone like alcohol or tobacco? how about prescription drugs they kill more people a year than all of the above three. Do some research before you just comment as another sheep in the heard . You have been brainwashed by the news and mainstream media for too many years. There are kids here with their cancer in remission because of it. For example search " hope for Landon".

Oh wow, I did not even realize that . A nice related backlink too. I shall definitely add my blog to your site when it's complete. Thanks!

Puke Bags lmao! D. Thank you very much. Looking for affiliate programs for each of these now.

P.S: On my bucket list: Go visit that Hash Museum

Don't know about list building but out of our 2 dozen amazon affiliate sites guess which one niche makes the most profit from a tiny bit of traffic?

It is a booming and affluent niche, go for it I say

that's a sweet sales page... might have to buy his product after checking that out... slick

just to continue on your tangent, you might like this list of people then: Famous Trippers « Reset.me Reset.me
