iHubz Project Information

Dear Sir/Madam,

iHubz has put together a list of Release 1 features, launching within the new year of 2008. Features are subject to change, however the main basis of the site will be based upon these features.

- Worldwide and National news feeds
- Local News (users generate their own news for their area)
- Image uploading and sharing (users can upload their images, which are moderated by a moderator and then share with their friends)
- Discussion Forum (users can discuss topics within the different sections, and can create their own topics)
- Reviews for products, seasonal gifts, games and websites (users will be able to submit own reviews after being approved by a moderator)

This will form the basis of Release 1 of iHubz. Currently in discussion is a Video sharing section, where users can upload their own videos and share with other users. All users of iHubz will be registered members, however non-registered members will be able to see the pictures and videos uploaded – this allows further sharing for user-uploaded files. Registration for users will be simple, quick and secure which invites more and more users to join the iHubz community.

BETA testing will be carried out throughout 2007, and will be available to users who have opted in via our main website www.iHubz.com (http://www.ihubz.com/) which will be set up later this year.

If you would like to find out more information about the iHubz project, how to get involved, advertise or even invest in the project, please email [email protected] ([email protected]).

_________________________________________

I have recently created a website called iHubz. I was originally making this website with a business partner who would code the website, while I manage and design. Its a shame that this person has recently withdrawn, after I complained to him of his lack of work and unwilling attitude.

I am offering 50% of iHubz, in return for completion of the coding of the website and services. 50% includes full, equal ownership of the idea, product, services, website and business and 50% of all income. Many people at this point may be put off due to the risk involved, however this business has been thought out very well and a business plan can be produced if asked for.

More information about iHubz, including what services we are hoping to offer can be found here;

http://www.splurstudios.com/iHubz%20Press%20Release%20-%20October%202007.doc - This press release is mentioned above, however this is the official document in .doc format

As per the press release, you can email myself on [email protected] and discuss any questions you may have, or if you wish to get involved in this project. Just to give you an idea of the social networking market, one well known social networking site called Facebook has made 7.2 Billion in only 4 years, and was created by a 18 year old, now 22. Facebook this week was invested in by Microsoft for £120m for under 2%. This is a market to get into.
If you have a question or concern, or would like to give constructive feedback, please feel free to use this post, PM or email.

If it was that easy to make a multi billion business/website, everyone would be doing it. I dont think you will take over the likes of facebook etc. Due to its size and popularity.

[rh4u]

you cant realy get any later this year?

[Dentafrice,]

Sounds like a great project, he has asked me to maybe jump aboard and I am thinking of it. Seems like a great idea.

[Antony]

Darren Toogood ... lol... no thanks AKA Woodrally :rolleyes:

The kid who has tried to start every business on the market, each being a big failure

[iHubz]

I am the owner of this project yes, however I do not know how you found out, but anyway that is besides the point. Antony, that is your personal opinion however I see it as a success - selling a website and making money.

Liberation, I do not want to get my hopes up that much - I was just using it as an example of the market and its popularity.

Why do you boare me with crap I already knew?

i mean it's world wide news...

[Antony]

How did you find out?

Because it shows Darren Toogood. Your name is kind of known as a failure, so the constant changes of Habbox Forum names isn't really working.

Secondly, you hosted the .DOC file on another old business failure of your's site.

[iHubz]

O yes, so it is.

God, so users may not listen to the news - I constantly get slated for listening to the news ^^

Naughty, I am sorry to hear you think that. I have had no other bad reports. Your feedback is welcome via PM about the design of Splur Studios.

EDIT: Ant, splurstudios.com is not a failure. I am not sure what you class as a failure, however it is a website to hold my portfolio and offer my services, however I have not marketed this website. I also change Habboxforum username as I change my habbo username. Please stop trying to take this topic off-topic.

[iTechnical]

SplurStudios isn't a failure right.

ROFL
You were going to sue me for making the name
"smearstudios" Still waiting :)

[iHubz]

Sue you - would really not be possible. Smearstudios sounds a little like splur studios though, don't you agree?

Anyway, I am just waiting to hear back from Denta about the project, however things are looking very positive!

[iTechnical]

Oh right, explaint o me why on msn you went:

WHY COPYMY SITE, YOU'LL BE HEARING FROM MY LAWYERS

[iHubz]

Please do leave this thread and grow up.

Anyone else interested in being the business partner and coder of iHubz?

Why are you going to make a website and you can't code?

[Hayd93]

thought the name rung a bell then i notice the link from that faliure splur studios.Its another 1 of his dreamy ideas were he is always right and people think it is great had he has had pro web designers say how good it is.You are living in a dream world get real

[iHubz]

God, I am doing the design and administration of the project. I was originally jonit owning the project with a very good coder, however he pulled out of the project due to him having to much to do (hornby, sheds, homework). I do not want to leave this project sitting no where, therefore I am seeking a new coder, who would also be the joint owner.

Hayd, I don't see why you think Splur Studios is a failure. Its a website I set up to offer my design services, and to also show my photography - there is no success or failure. It is more like a portfolio than a business. When I get around to marketing it (marketing is not my strong point) I will start to develop Splur Studios even more.

'Its another 1 of his dreamy ideas were he is always right and people think it is great had he has had pro web designers say how good it is.You are living in a dream world get real'

Its not a dream, its there on the internet right now. Yes, I have had comments from publishers about the quality of my work for my age.

[God..]

Well, i'll do it for some $$$$

[iHubz]

God, if you read the first post I am not going to pay a JOINT owner money. That is a little silly, me paying someone when they own half the business.

I am offering %. 50% of the business, which means they earn 50% of all revenue.

I read, but if you want people to work for you, you'll need to pay them, I told this to I.technical the other day.

[iHubz]

They are getting paid in a way, they are getting half of ALL revenue. Say this website made £1000 in the first year for example, they would get £500, and this would continue for as long as the business lasted.

Pay me to do it, I will, but I am not going to be apart of the buisness.

[iHubz]

That is not what I am offering, therefore it is no deal.

That is not what I am offering, therefore it is no deal.
We can't gareentu your 'buiessnes' to make money..

[iHubz]

Nor can I, however its called risk and risk assessment. I have done alot of research and I have put together a business plan. You can never say you are going to make money - it all depends on what happens.

We aim to make our money first from advertisement, and then start charging for some of our services.

[iTechnical]

Please do leave this thread and grow up.

First of all, I wasn't being immature, I was simply enquiring to when I was going to be sued, by your male prostetute lawyers.


I read, but if you want people to work for you, you'll need to pay them, I told this to I.technical the other day.

Yeah, you'd have to pay him, it isn't at all silly paying a joint owner.
It's called wages. ^.^

Darren, you're 12 years old. Your business plan is probably "lets make money" Risk & Risk assesment is to find about security flaws, health & safety. Nothing about the staff.

ROFL. Money from the google ads? You don't even have a budget to start off with, except your £5 a week pocket money.

LOL. He's probarly using that Nulled MySpace script...

[rh4u]

IHubz,
where the hell your going to earn £1000 of revenue of ads in the first year is like impossible.
Do you realy want to know how long all these other sites have been going for?
Google it cus im lazy.!

Well, he's a slippery sally isn't he.
(He's only 12 go easy on him, he hasn't learned proper currency)

[Antony]

So while you sit on your lazy **** someone is doing the coding for this failure for free, while you think of crap ideas to go on it. Then you think if this thing becomes a success, you get 50% of something you've put nothing into, and the coder gets 50%?

Jesus, you need to get your business skills better loll.

It wouldn't be worth doing the coding, without official contracts. Plus in the first post you said you sacked the coder for being lazy, yet in another you said he left? hmmph

[rh4u]

If he sacked the coder for being lazy, he shud sack himself ;)

[iTechnical]

He shouldnt even own it. :)
The coder should

[iHubz]

I am not 12 for a start. Just because I am young, it does not mean that I can not make a successful website.

O, and I will NOT be using any script/program from any other website.

[iHubz]

I am pleased to announce I have found a possible coder and joint owner of this project, who can carry out this project quicker than anyone else I have found!

More updates soon :)

[rh4u]

good for u.
Now on ur bike ;)
IHubz = 0WNED?

[iHubz]

0wned?

Nope, it is still working

[Invent]

This site will fail I'm 99.99(r)% sure.

There are HUNDREDS of social network. sites, why would this one do well?

[Pyroka]

Agreed with Invent, there are hundreds and this one is nothing special. For one you don't even know code yourself. If you learnt code and maybe show coders you can help them out, maybe you would stand a slight chance of 'hitting the big time'. Then you have to sort out your advertisement scheme, which costs money (which you don't have).

I remember Suerte Heights, and you flopped it, dreadfully. I was actually quite appealed to Suerte heights, however either you ran out of money or just got lazy with it, and tried to sell it off for god knows how much, 300 quid I think it was... It didn't even have a working client did it? :S Next time, get a 'marketing manager' for your 'business plans'. If you're the owner, yeah sure you should have some idea of where you want to take your business, but the marketing managers would usually do this. Maybe you're just looking in the wrong direction, and instead you should be a marketing manager. You seem to talk the talk after all.

Some people were born to lead websites, some are not. I am personally not, I'm just good at motivating people when it needs doing, and inspiring others (to an extent). Maybe you should think to yourself, since you've 'unsuccessfully' made a website/project last more than 6 months, you could be doing one thing wrong: Your position in a company.

Note I didn't say you were too young, as I know one lad younger than myself, and he's amazing, and almost seems like he's over 20 as I once said to him. Age isn't a matter, but your mind and aspirations are in what you want to do. I personally do think you'll be better going someone in that direction.

[DeejayMachoo$]

i did this for him,

http://sharecore.net/quick/

i spent like 20 mins on it but now im hearing that it wont work out ect i dont wana do it for him..

[Antony]

don't waste your time on it lol.

[DeejayMachoo$]

ok thanks for the advice. i wont :)

[iHubz]

That is very unfair. Me and Matt are getting on well, Matt just don't listen to them. I can't speak to you until 5pm tonight.

What they are saying is guess work - they THINK it will fail however we can make it work.

I am not having rude members ruin another project of mine.

Is Matt getting paid?
What's Matts benefits from this?

Let me correct the second paragraph!


What they are saying is so true! - they KNOW it will fail, FAIL so miserable, we can't make it work!

Rude members? These "rude members" know alot more about making a site than you, jeez man your template is off zymic.

[iHubz]

Matt had agreed to the given terms within the Press Release and Business Plan.

My template is not off of Zymic atall. I will be showing the template and idea to a publisher in about 30 mins from now, and we will see what he thinks.

Press release LOL. Who was this "press release" being given to, other than this forum? Lollll.

If matt want's to do it, it's up to him but lets think who's actually stuck with you in your many failures that you call businesses. lol.

[iHubz]

Thanks again folks, you ruin yet another project. If you had kept this thread positive, and not 'guesed' the future of iHubz or looked back on the past, I may have a decent coder right now.

The press release was for visitors to Splur Studios, and for anyone interested in iHubz project. Py, Suerte Heights did NOT fail. I sold it for £120, therefore I made money - a success.

'Maybe you should think to yourself, since you've 'unsuccessfully' made a website/project last more than 6 months, you could be doing one thing wrong'

None of my websites are unsuccessful. Suerte sold, Splur is active and still going and provides the service I need it to provide. People get negitive views on my websites because of people like yourselfs who bring up the past, and then say that future projects are likley to be bad :S

[Jamie.]

Sapulce.net O.o = P

Sapulce will be a success :)

[God..]

Yes, but your telling us that we have to code it all for you and get 50% of owner ship, seriously, if i was the coder i would want 85% of all profits / ownership

[iHubz]

That would then give them the majority control, and I would have no control over the business, which is not what I want.

Anyhow, I have found a coder, who has agreed to all terms and hopefully we will have a new site out by december :)

[Jamie.]

who?!.,

[iTechnical]

Well, Darren, you've outwit us again!
You really are Toogood at this game for us!

I spoke to Matt on msn, you're a failure,
let me be bolden that up your in-acceptable mind FAILURE

BIG
NON-SUCCESFUL
FAILURE

it's in red Darren.
So it's true.

[iHubz]

and why do you think I am a big, non successful failure?

Where is your evidence to back this up?

[DeejayMachoo$]

Hxf (abou 50 odd) - 0 (Woodrally)

[iHubz]

Matt, I don't get what you mean. You guys are saying my projects will fail but you have no evidence for it. You have no idea about my private projects. I sold one project for £120 - that is a success, and my latest project Splur Studios is fully up and running, however just needs marketing.

iHubz now has a coder, and he will be starting work as soon as I have the complete design. We have changed the idea of iHubz a little, and the plans will be revealed soon.

We are looking to launch iHubz in December.

I still remember when I pretended to be an entrepreneur wanting to fund Suerte Heights and you went along with it - me and Oz had a good 'ole laugh that day.

It'll fail.

[iHubz]

Another one...

You say it will fail however you have no proof that my project will fail. My past may be bad, however you also thought that Suerte failed, even though I sold it for £120.

Now, you say this project will fail, however have no proof of this and you are just saying this because you don't want me to create a decent, working project. I have a good coder working on it, and I am doing the web 2.0 design for iHubz.

I think I better stay away from this forum with press releases, because it just seems to cause problems. I have done nothing wrong here, and I am just making a very good project for others to use. More information can be found at

LOL! Whats that a white square and a double coloured bg :| I could report you to paypal for being under aged with an account, account holders must be 18.

[iHubz]

Your right, you can't be 13 and run a company. iHubz is not a company at the moment, it is just a starter website. If it does expand, I will get my parents to register as a company, until I reach 16 (in less than 2 years).

[Liberation]

You may have sold it for £120. But you even said you didnt make any profit. So where did you win there?

[iHubz]

But people have been saying it FAILED, which it did not. It was a learning experience for me.

[Jõnathan]

If you didn't plaster your name everywhere then people would forget that it was you.

[iHubz]

I wouldn't say adding my name to a press release (I did sign at the bottom) as plastering my name around. I purposely kept my name away from here.

which'd need taxing

alot of cash monthly for copyright
Alot of business productions.
Alot for company registration

[RichardKnox]

Taxing - £5,300 something a year
Copyright - Don't need to. DMCA protects intellectual property without the need, plus you can use iHubz as a TM until you register it.
Business productions - not at all
Company Registration - £250 I think to become a limited company.

basicly your dad left you?

Very much doubt it.

yeh my dad gave me 20 grand to make a busness!!! hes notz lien

Your dad is getting £200 per day, I think you have forgottern where is the money coming from to the pay bills etc? Im sure your mum & dad would rather use the money for other things than a website there son is going to waste £6000 on.

[iHubz]

My dad has not left, he is on work out there for about 6 weeks.


The coders have left this project before it began, so I may make a new project. I will be looking on these forums for a new coder this afternoon

Why these forum's you would need advanced coders for a project like this, before anyone bites my balls off, not that no-one is un experienced theres not alot of people here, and if there are they already have projects.


thats only £8200 ure dads getting :|

[iHubz]

Anyway, moving on...

I am not sure what to do now. I bought the domain because I thought the coder/joint owner I had would stick with me, however he was just lazy and left.

I would have had another 1 MAYBE 2 coders, however people here at HxF have made things worse.

Illegal because your under 18?!
When did the law get changed?

Firstly, you can register a limited company at 16, and under 16 you can LEGALLY have it registered in the parents name. Don't believe me? Ask me for the webpage from the government.

[iHubz]

Richard is correct...

I double checked, when my brother tried setting one up at 16,
You have to be 18, and pay copyright taxes. (I think it's copyright taxes not sure, some sort of tax)
But you can set it up in the parents name. Aye.

And also, Darren. Why bother us with your projects? IMA PLAN A NEW 1!
Dude, we don't care. We don't want to help, so don't act as if we're very intrested.

Sorry God, I am not paying you or anyone else to do this project. I am offering 50% of the business, which means no limits on the amount paid. If the company earns £1000, you get £500.

Oh that was so funny, I was weeing myself.

I wouldnt class £120 as a success because it costs alot to make but mainly because of the time it took to create. If you would have got a job you could have made alot more in that time. Some designers like [Oli] on this forum could probably make that in one layout.

Yeah, You took 6 months, and earned £120,
[Oli] would earn about 2k, in 6 months maybe a LOT more.
