Become: Be Smart, Be Thrifty, Just Be
Michael Yang’s new venture Become just went live. Really simple idea: specific search site combined with google ads for the income. Resulting in comparitively low maintainence and, possibly, high revenue. The only trouble is that it is a bit hard to differentiate a search engine like this from say… google itself. The fact that they chose a layout similar to google is not a pro i think, it makes it even harder to notice that Become is returning different results.
As long as you keep your costs low Google ads can be a really efficient money maker. This wan’t true a year ago b.t.w. but the scheme has really taken off since then with a huge advertising network and very high recognition among advertisers.
