Now I know a lot of people will put up a website for a movie that is coming out within a few months or a game that is launching next year in order to gain authority over time and make a few sales when the movie comes out of the game launches.
But have you ever thought about putting up a website for the next Summer Olympics in 2020? This is a big task because it's 4 years of work and you don't know if you're even going to make a single dollar off of it, but would it be worth it.
What kind of advertising would you put on your website? Would you slap up some BSA (buysellads.com) ads or would you try to generate enough traffic to the website that you could get big fish like Nike or McDonalds to show some interest in paying you a hefty amount to advertise on your pages for a month? If you had the traffic, where would you try to find the advertisers to bring in the money?
I think this is a pretty awesome idea but it's a huge task because the amount of content you would need on the site in order to be competitive. I guess you could put some adsense on the website and just talk about summer sports that are in the Olympics and get a few dollars each month off of that. But how much do you think you could pull in?
I may actually try this out, but I don't know if I'd be able to get the amount of content that I'd like. Sure I could ask people to post for me or pay writers to do it, but that would be expensive and whoever is posting for free would probably not stay around for long.
Give me your input on this 
I'm tempted to set something up to tray and make a profit in 4 years, but it seems like a ton of work with little chance to profit later on. The only way to really profit big time is to get big fortune 500 companies to pay you thousands for an ad spot on your pages, and that's a really low chance.
Of course you could just focus on the sports and bring people in over the 4 years to click on your BSA ads or adsense, but I'm not 100% sure how much you'd make done that either.
This is a high risk type of thing. You could invest 4 years of work into it and make a ton of money, or you could be wasting your time lol :D

Yes I think that this is a really great idea and it takes into account so many of the ideas I have been considering. There was another discussion about building a website based on a future need, so this would be one of those for sure. Plus you could work on it for 4 years and then flip it just at the right time!
Or of course maybe keep it through the games and make a good income from the traffic and other sales on the website.
I'm not really into the Olympic Games though, but really this could be very profitable! Razzy geez buddy.... the stuff you post just gets my brain pumping way too much (certainly too much brain work for a Sunday LOL)and you have given me some really good ideas for websites that can pull in some money in the future.
