Become A Nightlife Guide

Do you love the nightlife? Working as a nightlife guide can be a good business opportunity. Nightlife lovers are picky and always want to be at the happening clubs. As a nightlife guide, you can build a website that shares information about clubs in different parts of the world, particularly locations where nightlife is common.

You can earn from tourists who search for the best places for nightlife or bar owners and restaurateurs who want to advertise their bars and restaurants to reach more people.

Here are some real life success stories of starting a nightlife guide:

1. PubClub.com ($24K/year)

Kevin Wilkerson came up with the idea for PubClub.com while in Amsterdam with a friend, realizing the importance of knowing not just where to go in a city, but when to be there. He started the lifestyle website to provide information on travel, nightlife, food and drink, festivals, and sports, and has since expanded it to generate approximately $2,000 a month from advertising with around 25k users per month. Through his background in journalism and PR, he has been able to publish quality content and attract partnerships with tourism boards.
