Windows 7 - Time to Make Money

Posted in » Business Ideas, Make Money - by Ades on May 30th, 2009

windows 7Microsoft is releasing yet again new operating system Windows 7 sometime in October this year. That means there is a huge opportunity to make money for everyone especially for bloggers, since most of them are good in setting up websites, doing basic SEO and promoting it on the net.

So how would you make money around Windows 7? The possibilities are many. You could setup a tech forum for Windows 7, or make a wallpaper site, or tips & tricks site, or Windows 7 hacks site etc - all of which are very popular segments for previous versions of Windows OS; XP and Vista.

Tell me more…

The idea is simple, basically you are going to use first mover advantage and try to be the authority website in your niche, to make your site popular and high traffic. And then put up some ads (adsense etc) and enjoy the fruits. Or sell the site and get a huge pay for it.

Alternatively you could make money referring people to buy Windows 7 to Amazon or to other Microsoft partners that have affiliate programs.

I am gonna try this time…

This time I am planning to make at least one website related to Windows 7 and see if I can make money out of it. The idea came after reading Larry’s post here. Larry is one of the people who have made substantial amount of money from previous similar opportunities, he is trying again this time with Windows 7. (Good luck Larry!)

Tell me your opinion on this. What do you think? Are you going to seize this opportunity?

  3. By iMac on May 30, 2009

    This is actually something I was think of too. Well the tech forum. The problem is i dont have acccess to any beta products etc so its hard to initiate conversation at the moment, however, hopefully a ‘friend’ can pass me some of this Windows 7 goldmine :)

  7. By Ades on May 31, 2009

    @xbox 360, thanks, it’s Ades.

    @baloot, i am sure that domain name is taken already ;)

    @iMac, yes it will be a tough competition. thanks!

    great news. a new topic for the bloggers to start making money.

    Welcome back, Ades!

    I am glad to see that you’re kicking off with something new I haven’t seen anywhere else (most prob because this used to be the best kept secret in web marketing ;-) ROFL)

    Jokes aside though, I do feel that you’re onto something her. Another blog I occasionally frequent is http://windows7news.com/ and they’ve been working on this very recipe for quite some time now. Great minds think alike!

    This sounds huge. Good luck with the project

  13. By iPhone on Jun 1, 2009

    Surely the already setup Vista and XP sites will just add W7 to their pages and claim 99% of the market!?
    Worth a try though, and I might just add an affiliate link to a W7 wallpaper site to my blog.

    This sounds like a great idea. I agree that it will soon be a very competitive niche, but if you get in early enough ahead of the rest, who knows?

    Great ideas. It’s going to be a competitive niche, but an early start (even before the release) can give webmasters an advantage.

    It is really nice to see this post.

  18. By Xbox 360 on Jun 2, 2009

    @ ades, then there should be a ‘ in your domain name :P

    I only read this post after the one that actually followed on this one, and am now getting to understand what the Windows 7 story was all about. It does seem like a great niche, one well worth exploring. Keep us posted with your progress please.

    @baloot, yes i do remember that you are malaysian.

    @marketing man, thanks, good to be back.

    @xbox 360, :D not for sites that i want to sell…

    Really wonderful opportunities for bloggers having knowledge regarding internet marketing as they can earn quick money with windows 7.

  22. By Property Solicitors on Jun 3, 2009

    One more source to make online money specially for the blogger.

  23. By Marisha Adams on Jun 5, 2009

    This sounds like a brilliant idea.. I guess it’s dominating the market before it even exists?? Really clever idea!

  24. By Chelle on Jun 5, 2009

    It is nice when you can jump on something before it gets too over saturated. I hope windows 7 is a lot better than Vista…I know quite a few people still terrified to leave XP.

  25. By nomad blogger on Jun 5, 2009

    wow. we still can make money from this way? Agree, time to make money. No need to waste time anymore.

  26. By Hurtownia Tkanin on Jun 8, 2009

    If you could set up a windows 7 help board and get it to the first place in google now, before it hits the shelves you’d earn a ton of money in october or whenever they finaly release it.

  27. By www.coredownloadz.co.cc on Jun 9, 2009

    I’ve noticed that Google rewards the first website on a topic by keeping it on top of the SERPS longer than normal. Great idea to start a website on a trend, product, or new idea right at the beginning.

    Although Microsoft will be the top result for the term “Windows 7,” there are many niches where Microsoft won’t be, including: Windows 7 Lessons, Windows 7 Books, Windows 7 Forum, Windows 7 Expert, etc.

  32. By joseph on Jul 7, 2009

    nice share man.. i will try to make wallpaper site

  33. By Budzer on Jul 9, 2009

    Thanks Ades, that’s really a good tips.
    Thanks a lot.

    That is a really fantastic idea, if you get the jump on your SEO now it won’t be hard to stay at the top once it has been released. Nice looking out!
