You really have to target a specialized niche that's hungry for the information and having some personal experience or super well research info is a must. But even then both of those you listed still charge for content, but its a newspaper. If you build enough of a following its entirely possible to start a niche newsletter - theres a couple I know of the first is Yanik Silver, his is $80 a month. Another is Dan Kennedy, I think his is $100+ a month. However, they include a lot more than just written content. Ie, audio interviews on CD, videos, etc... I suppose its all about what you package it with. That’s true, building a successful content membership site online is difficult because its all about the niche.

If you remember, even the NY Times had problems selling their content (which was top-notch...) That said, there are companies like WSJ that can and do charge for online content. It really depends on the content, though, and there's not a lot of it that can be sold via a subscription to a website, imho. (ebooks just popped in my head for some reason...) Anyway, just wanted to throw that out there. Keep up the good work. ;) “easily leverage”
