A 2006 Wrap Up



December 16, 2006 – 6:01 pm | by gaulardcom



I remember the day, January 1, 2006. I was sitting on the floor sulking. I had no idea what I was going to do this year. I knew I wanted to launch some more websites, but I was out of ideas. I already had PetClassifieds.US, CycleClassifieds.US, BoatClassifieds.US, MotoClassifieds.US and TemplateMarket.US. What more could be done? I was out of it.

Then, one day I noticed that my very generic domain name and one page website for WebClassifieds.US had been listed in DMOZ. Ok, wow. That was a shock. I wasn’t even sure that site was alive any more. Well, it was, and that listing put my domain name into the all important Google Directory. Now that WebClassifieds.US had just gone up in value, I decided to create another general classified site there. That took a few weeks.

Well, now what? Ok, I picked up some ideas throughout the year and made a few more sites…like around 16 of them. Here is a list:

  • MyAutoMarket.US
  • MyBabyMarket.US
  • MyBeautyMarket.US
  • MyBoatMarket.US
  • MyBookMarket.US
  • MyCycleMarket.US
  • MyGardenMarket.US
  • MyHealthMarket.US
  • MyHomeMarket.US
  • MyKitchenMarket.US
  • MyMediaMarket.US
  • MyPetMarket.US
  • MySportsMarket.US
  • UpMyAlley.US
  • Also, I needed a place to put all my dot US websites, so…dotusnetwork.com. Lastly, somewhere along the lines I got the grand ol’ idea for a RSS Feed Directory. Yeah, uh huh. I feel a little better.

    That’s the thing with me. I get really bored really fast. I always think I am going to accomplish nothing but actually finish ahead of schedule. Well, this brings me to a little issue. Now that it is December 16 and almost 2007, I am kind of out of ideas for stuff for the new year ahead. I either need to partner up with some rich dude and pump some marketing money and new servers into this stuff or just keep making sites. Suggestions?
