Clickbump Themes or Free ones

10 replies
Hi Folks,

I am planning to pump out 5 micro niche sites a week as a platform to host adsense. I can devote 8hrs a day to this task 5 days a week. I wish to make them in WordPress, I am a complete WordPress newbie, I had been using Webplus for many years.

I see many Free Themes available, (A WordPress theme being what I would have called a template, correct me if I am wrong).

Would you suggest I spend $97 on a ClickBump package, which includes some SEO goodies and some themes. Can I still use the Clickbump SEO stuff if I down load a free theme that I like more?

or

CTRtheme that has 3 themes

(I am worried using these that I am a easy target for Google to target my sites, hunting all ClickBump sites. Can you change the color from disgusting green and black that seems to be all over the net now.)

or I just hunt down some free themes and use all in one SEO free and $39 for the better PRO version.

How hard are these themes to make anyway? No HTML experience by the way.

    ummm.. before you throw away money keep in mind

    you can find many high quality wordpress themes for free which would go great for adsense

    the thing you have to be concerned about is setting up your blogs and optimizing them properly so you can get indexed in the search engines and get lots of free traffic to your site ..

    here is an example scenario

    you create a self hosted wordpress blog - find a free quality wordpress theme

    set it up and optimize it properly

    use ad's that go into your content so it looks like links - i find those work best if you are doing micro blogging sites

    you could use that 90 or so dollars to do a paid ad campaign

    so for example if you get 1 person for every 2 cents

    and you get paid 5 cents per click or what ever you will be paid you could make an ok amount of return on your investment depending on how much traffic you can get generated to your site

    i think you should be more focused on getting your site ranked number 1 so you can get lots of free traffic so you only see profit

    I agree, focus on getting ranked number one, that is why I am asking about how good the ClickBumb themes and SEO stuff really is and how does it compare to All In One SEO PRO?

    Just curious, are you allowed to send paid traffic to Adsense pages?

      Honestly I haven't used it enough to really know if its better than the all in one seo plugin. All i know is it makes on page seo really easy. I bought every product scott has put out. I love clickbump jumpstart because it makes my sites in seconds with all the pages already made and the sites i have made were all indexed within a day or two. Also, their customer service is top notch. They have helped me out on there private forum with any problems I've come across. I highly recommend Scotts Biz Local product. I already have a bunch of clients lined up to make websites for their local business and possible seo consulting. Charging $250-500 for the websites that only take 2-5 hours to customized for that company. I have only been doing internet marketing for 4 months and while i keep learning the craft of affiliate marketing i can be making sales from this offline technique. There are so many small businesses without a website. idk something to think about.

      I love a free theme as much as the next guy but.... there is a difference between a free theme website and a Clickbump website. Clickbump has always ranked VERY well for me and quickly. The inital ranking always starts out at 50 or better (for me). With the free theme you will spend more of your time trying to rank. What is your time worth?

    OK, so by the looks of it, for a novice WP user it is probably a good investment. I will look into it more.

    Hi there Ducksauce, I'm Scott Blanchard, creator of the CE4 WordPress theme (ClickBump) and several other products mentioned here. I'd be happy to answer any questions you have.

    Here's the skinny:

    My core theme, CE4 is used as the framework theme and powers "ClickBump Express", "ClickBump Engine", "ClickBump JumpStart Pro" and "ClickBump BizLocal".

    Express is the entry level version of the CE4 WordPress theme and comes with the "Amaze" premium template pre-installed.

    Engine is exactly the same as "Express", but adds 12 additional "core" templates pre-installed. These are the micro-niche templates that made the system famous.

    BizLocal is a specially packaged version of CE4 which has 3 business class templates pre-installed along with a special installer that builds your entire website in less than 30 seconds.

    Express with JumpStart Pro is a specially packaged version of Express that has the same installer as BizLocal.

    My SEO! plugin is called "ClickBump SEO!" and works with ANY WordPress theme, not just mine.

    Hope that helps. Give me a shout if you have any ?s
