Newcomers to Virtual Real Estate -> Best Methods?

[Tommy Rampal]

So Im embarking on quite a wide scale project, but its severely encumbered with time due to lack of funds. I was thinking of taking up small scale virtual real estate to hopefully get a little income and land mass to work with.

How should a newcomer come about this? Where is the demand? General, moderate or adult? Themed, partitioned or whole islands? Invest in one or aim big? Or is the economy hindered and I should avoid it completely?

Thanks guys

Adult, and you should probably start small until you have more experience.

[Tommy Rampal]

Is there more appeal for adult land? I assumed general as its accessible to the entire SL market and no extensive age verification is required

[Elric Anatine]

The "adult" oriented market drives pretty much every industry in RL and therefore SL.  It has the most expendable cash, and the most demand.

Good luck.

Thanks!

I was wondering if I should add some theming/scenery, e.g. roads, landing zones, sim surrounds, etc. Would this be a waste of prim usage and/or land mass? Is there more success in renting out land plots or whole sims?
