WOW, I actually made REAL cash

Greetings Warriors,

Let me start by saying that I am a newbie and have a keen interest in IM. I started reading free and paid WSO's (spent about $140.00) about Six weeks ago and have found much great info relating to IM right here in the WF. I have read many different posts and I appreciate the help that this forum brings. I am sure I do not speak alone in my appreciation no matter what our level.

After reading/ researching signing up for opt ins etc. I decided to go the route of niche marketing. As my signiture reads I would like to develop ten sites by the end of August. After MUCH reading. NM is my focus and most of what I do in IM is right now. It is going well and I am starting to see some modest gains in traffic/ networking/ not so much in sales as I have not found a good pruduct in my niche. Slow and steady wins the race right? As we speak I am doing the methodical stuff like writing articles, submitting, learning SEO, backlinks, etc. Just flat out basics which take much time but do not bring $56,434 dollars in your account in three days.

However about a week ago I had an idea to promote a certain clickbank product via free online classified ads and so I spent about two hours on the campaign doing the regular things (registration sign-ups, check your email for verifications, write some good ads, getting my CB code etc) This was just for fun as I had a few hours to kill so I thought I would try it out. The past few days. BAM! To the hour I've made about $1100 bucks. No big secret formula. CB product (AS $30.77, Grav 20.33, Avg % sale/65.00, % ref 67.00) Sent out a creative classified ad. That's it. Found a CB product I wanted to promote and did so with online classifieds in my local region. It worked. Not about to quit my day job just yet though

I have two reasons for writing this post. One, to thank the warriors for of all level for your help and advice. Two, for the newbies. Learn the basics and be creative.
