[QUOTE="linux.poet, post: 77471207, member: 443852"] I really like [USER=416395]@bèlla[/USER] 's questions and I think they deserve more attention. These are good questions for developing any knowledge based business on the internet. Paid forum moderator making $4000 or more a month. I think even if I won the lottery tomorrow I'd still be invested in expanding online forums, either owned by myself or others, into the 4K profit mark. Writing forum posts, writing SEO compliant articles, providing feedback to site owners on ways to improve their forum operations, moderating topics and posts. Web designing, systems development, poetry. Problems with site search engine optimization and attracting new users to their site. They also want me to solve the problem of not having enough forum posts on their forum by hiring me to write them. Occasionally I get a male individual or two who want me to solve their romance/girlfriend hunting issues. I ended up rescuing a coworker from a catfish yesterday and helped him optimize his Tinder profile. Since there are less women online in the circles I frequent, people come to me for a female perspective on certain issues or to solve certain gender dynamic problems. People IRL want me to make websites for them, or do web design consulting. At one point I was called upon to supervise another web designer to make sure the designs produced were what the organization wanted. That was a weird job. Basically, the problem of "no website" or "my website needs improvement." Weirdly, I tend to hate the people who keep doing this because it just strikes me as a treadmill to nowhere. I gladly work for someone else's forum to obtain the knowledge I need for a project or to support something I care about, but working for other people in the web design context feels miserable to me. I'm not fascinated by web design mechanics, more how a website can best serve its users.

People IRL also want me to resolve their financial problems or financial insecurities, which is annoying because I don't seem to have any skills or means to solve them. I think people IRL don't understand the Internet very well, which leads them to either assume that working on the Internet is an unprofitable waste of time, or that the Internet is a money printing machine that I can just pull money out of. Both of those views are toxic and destructive to my mental health. Any subjects related to web design, online forums, and webmastering. Publishing, Twitter/X and YouTube, internet marketing and SEO. Psychology of online relationships (not just the romantic ones), ethical treatment of forum members, that kind of thing. Any sort of online conversation. Forum debate, PM, Discord chatrooms/servers, Slack - doesn't matter. Reading books and doing various in-depth research. Drawing and Graphic design. Playing free mobile games on my tablet.
