Have you ever made a high quality site that was completely white-hat?

...no black hat or pushing Acai Berries. Relying on the quality of the content to attract backlinks. Basically trying to add to the interweb. Money is important but much of the satisfaction would come from building something great.

I really want to do something but honestly everything I've done on the internet has been 95% for the money. I can't think of any hobbies that would lend themselves to sites. I could start a blog in an oversaturated niche and involved myself in community, which would be okay.

Setup a blog where you encourage and teach people to make white hat sites.

Of course, several of them. If you're aiming for 7+ figures that's usually where that money is made on the internet.

Yep. Many haven't been touched in literally years by human hands and still write checks to me monthly.

It's like buying low risk mutual funds - good diversification.

I have a site I do just for a hobby. I am honestly interested in the subject matter so updating it or writing an article for it never feels like a chore. I update it about 3 or 4 times a week w/ fresh content. I've been running it since 2007.

It ranks fairly decent in google for some terms and traffic is pretty good. It doesn't make a whole lot of money, but I do have adsense on it and also push ebooks in the niche from time to time.
