How to monetize a AI News aggregate website? - i will not promote (crossing fingers)
Hi guys, I was just doing this as a passion project, and I got carried away. It started as me trying to aggregate news for myself using ai schedulers (news is about AI industry and where it's going) As the time went on, I kept using different technologies and changing things here and there, and finally now have a website where almost 500 news channels are monitored for AI related news, then Summarised and clubbed (many channels talk about the same news so clubbing then gives me all in story as a overview) and I also have a meter showing which news channels are pragmatic,optimistic etc (took inspiration from ground news). Later on I started doing the same with all the research papers that are coming into arvix under ai/ml category with much more deeper analysis. I've been using this for myself for some time and it's genuinely useful for me at least. I want to keep this running as long as possible but everything costs money so I am looking for ways to monetize this tech or website. Currently i don't do ads or any paywall, i am not willing to do that later on too, cause that just ruins the focus. My goal is to get enough monetary value to keep this running for as long as possible and the cost of keeping this site alive comes to around 200$ a month (domain , hosting, llm api) I am looking for advice for some different ways to get the money.
