Just wondered if any of you fine fellas are shifting any Thai produced gear through websites ? I'm in the process of setting something up but wondered if anyone else is actually making a decent liveable income out of it and what pitfalls can be avoided.

I sold DVDs/ VCDs for a while. Some good titles could be buoght a MangPhong for 99 baht. Sold most of them for US$12 or so....
Started low at US$ 0,01 and charged US$7.95 for postage (which actually only costs 60 baht).
Nowadays only B movies at Mangphong. The A titles are around 500-600 baht, not worthwhile.

As posted in another thread I run 4 websites in the UK. Just info sites (in high revenue subject matters) with about 400 pages between them but the "Google Ads" revenue is around $6500 a month from around 71,500 unique visitors a month. Outgoings around $1,800
Income rises as I add more sites or pages - costs are not exponential. Anticipate profist of around $7,500 within next 6 months
Its not really rocket science though it is very time consuming in the early days. If you use content management sites you dont even need any web design or ftp skills - I certainly dont have any.
If you set up info only sites or sell other people's products via affiliate schemes then you are truly borderless - my sites are UK based and hosted but administered from anywhere in the world.
If I found a truly worldwide market then I would be even happier.
One thing to remember is a fairly straightforward rule of business. There are 20,000 farang (I think) in Bangkok, 10 million thais, and many billions of people worldwide so WHY do people insist on setting up businesses selling to the 20,000?????? It actually makes no sense at all but we see it all the time. Go where the markets are my sons..................

Actually I am the other side of Adwords which is what I think this is about. I set up campaigns to promote web sites based on search words and I decide what words, what countries and how much I am prepared to pay per click. Thats on Google itself and Google also has partner sites where, I assume, there is a revenue split with the site owner.
Some key words I pay 50 cents per click and in some areas I have heard it goes much higher. Similar to a webmaster program promoting Adult, Gambling or whatever. A lot of people I know in Asia making nice money running those.

Dr - you have lost me.
My pages get around 71,000 unique users a month. I have a CTR on my google ads at between 5 and 10%. Thats 3,500 to 7,000 ad clciks a month.
Some adds pay me as much as $4 a click most less but not many below $1
