First $100 Day.....Kind Of - And Some Thanks

26 replies
I say 'kind of' because it depends what you consider a day :p I made $40 yesterday(in the early evening) and have made $80 today, as of a few minutes ago If I was to consider a day as a 24 hour period, rather than 12am to 12am, I guess I've done it

It feels really good, and as per my user title - I feel I'm really making progress. I owe so much to this place, so just want to say thanks to a few people by name. I'll probably forget a few, but the forum as a whole has helped me massively anyway so even if your name isn't here, it still could be that I've learned from you.

BIGMike - Kindly sponsored me into the War Room back in September. I love Incansoft's products and use them daily, and he's just an all around great Warrior.

Don & Jeremy
- Fantastic work ethic, a no nonsense approach and full of great ideas and strategies. In addition, their CPA Bootcamp and the techniques within have definitely helped me make the sales I've generated in the last couple of days.

TheRichJerksNet - Another guy with a no nonsense approach, and a great work ethic. His article marketing strategies in particular have really struck a chord with me over the last few months. I'm very pleased to be a member of Article Productions too

Alexa Smith - Great attitude, tells it like it is and knows her stuff.

Stephen Wagenheim - Full of wisdom and ideas - and another that tells it like it is.

Paul Myers - 'Need To Know' really changed my mindset when I read it a couple of months ago. Tells you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear, and is rightly a WF legend.

Imran Naseem - His CPA manuscript really got me started with CPA, other products delivered too. As a UK IM, someone I really look up to.

NewBum76 - Did a JV with me for our first ever WSO, and is always positive and encouraging.

Daniel Molano - SEO genius and world class IM.

KKChoon - Another SEO genius, and always very helpful and encouraging.

RuthP - Very helpful and encouraging, particularly with site flipping, which I'm going to get into in the coming weeks.

I could go on and on, but I just want to say thanks to all Warriors This isn't just about a few sales in the last couple of days - the help and advice I've got here has helped me go from pretty much a complete newbie, to someone who is beginning to really believe I can do very well in IM for years to come.

Between the end of October and mid December, I didn't make a cent.....between mid December and now I have made $400+ and am establishing a couple of sites really nicely in their niches. I posted this thread during that zero cent spell, and I think it was somewhat of a turning point:-

http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...me-advice.html

So again, thank you - and I hope I can help lots of other people to really get started and make some nice money

I realize this thread wouldn't be complete without saying how I have done it - the second link in my sig pretty much explains my strategies and such. I still have a long way to go though, so I'm by no means getting ahead of myself or thinking I've cracked it. The penny is very much dropping though.

      Thanks Cindy

      I really hope this thread can inspire some newbies, and anyone who is struggling. At one point, I was beginning to wonder if I was capable of making money online - those thoughts are completely out of my head now. Focus, determination and organization make anything possible

        Keep concentrating on an end goal and you will find that with a bit of effort you will see that figure appearing more and more consistant.

        Again Fairplay.

      Congratulations! The most important thing is traffic. Without it, you won't make money, so traffic has the highest priority in internet marketing.

      Just having to write an entry at the end of each day has really helped me to focus, and when looking back on it I can see what's worked and what hasn't. Up until a couple of days ago, I didn't know if anyone was reading it or following along, but you're one of a few people that has since said they are. I'm honoured and really appreciate it

      I'm thinking of creating a WP blog, with my own domain after this challenge - writing things down really helps me to focus so I think I will.

      I have a few sites, and a few CB/CPA products/offers I promote but this particular burst of sales is all the same CPA product, from the same site. All the traffic is completely organic, from Google. I hold the number 1 spot for a 'buying' keyword, and a few of the other spots too, with articles, press releases and such.

      All the keyword tools say this term gets a low amount of searches or 'no data', but I know differently - I'm getting 20-30 visitors every day. The offer is converting at close to 4%, which is reasonably OK I think, although I'd like it to be higher.

      Most of what I do is simply article marketing and SEO, nothing new really. I make sure to update the content on my sites regularly, and in terms of backlinking, I make sure to build them consistently - article submissions, web 2.0, press releases, blog commenting etc etc. I did used to do profile backlinks but haven't done so for a couple of months now.

      I am making sure to leverage the tools I have available to me. For example, before, I would write an article, submit it to my site/EZA, then forget about it. Now I rewrite it, spin it and submit it to other directories, web 2.0 properties and such. I use the spinner at James/TheRichJerksNet's Article Productions site to do my rewrites/spins

      Compared to lots of people here, my 'success' is modest, but the important thing to me is that I'm making progress. The secret to my consistency is....consistency - I can't say it better than that really.

      Thanks everyone for your kind words I celebrated this little milestone last night but feel a bit rough today as a result It's kind of become a tradition in our household to celebrate milestones - first clickbank sale, first 10 sales, first $100 day etc etc. I don't know what the next one is, maybe a $200 day - I'll go a bit easier on the beer and champagne next time though :p

    thanks for the post.. i've been coding websites for years and just let other worry about the marketing.. but it's always been something i've wanted to do.

    i am actually far more motivated to read about how to make $100 a day than hearing stories about $10,000 days with no effort... maybe I am just cynical but I have no problem doing hardwork to learn things... I'll keep an eye on your efforts!
