A WordPress-based PSD resource site attracts over a million pageviews monthly, contributed by community designers. The primary task required is to browse PSD submissions and post one daily. The site generates revenue mainly through advertising and also sells digital download bundles and other digital products.
Another WordPress-based platform offers free design resources with an option for paid memberships, presenting an area for potential revenue growth. The work needed includes moderating user submissions and registrations, along with removing spam, though a strong anti-spam system is already in place. Revenue is primarily driven by advertising, supplemented by digital downloads and memberships. The site consistently garners about two million monthly pageviews.
In additional revenue details, the advertising revenue for this site declined in January 2012 due to a switch to a new ad service provider, which proved ineffective. The site has now reverted to its previous ad provider, stabilizing revenue back to normal levels by June. In terms of traffic, the PSD resource site receives approximately 1.6 million pageviews monthly, while the design resource platform sees about 500,000 pageviews each month.
