Have you put up a website and tried some of the following simple, common monetization techniques? Let's talk case studies. Please give us some feedback as a comment, for starters.

1. What's your website about? Feel free to keep it anonymous.

2. Do you charge for advertising? How do you go about marketing, rates and ad placement (framework)? For example, do you tell potential advertisers your visit volume? What's your success been? What's worked best and worst?

3. How about Google Adsense and Adwords? Have you used them and what has your experience been?

4. How do you go about implementing Search Engine Optimization and what has your experience been?

5. Do you have an online store? Are you a reseller or a source of products? Do you use a framework or component for your store/cart/checkout?

6. What's your endgame strategy? Do you plan an exit? Do you have a monetization plan or did you just start the site with the intention of selling it at some point?

7. What are your feelings about putting up a custom site vs using the piggyback technique with a Facebook, etc?

8. Do you have other monetization approaches like membership fees, etc? What has your success been?

9. Please tell us some tips and lessons learned. Ask some questions. We're eager to learn from your experiences and give you feedback. These are just a few questions that came to mind. Feel free to tell us what you know.

10. Is your website a primary frontpiece for the startup or is it an extension of something else, perhaps a bricks and mortar business or a partnership?

That's a start!
