Im looking for a new approach.. internet marketing rock bottom.

30 replies
Hello,
I am effectively back where I started when I joined in with all of this internet marketing, im back at zero.. if you want to know the reason why im back at zero then basically my account on Fiverr which I was coming up to making $100 and was really excited about, got banned.. this $100 was going to fund my sites for a domain name, hosting, backlinks and some traffic.

I know you may think it is my fault for getting banned and I suppose it is, and it serves me right for not reading the terms and conditions, but I want to get clear that it was a gig that got me banned and not me scamming or something. Now back to the point.

Unfortunately I have effectively lost that money now as I cannot withdraw it for 45-90 days which leaves me waiting around 2 months... So I was wondering if somebody could tell me another good approach of getting enough money to fund the domain and hosting at least.

Also can anybody give me some sort of rough guide of how to manually increase my ranking in Google? Pm me if you like! I was also going to pay somebody for an SEO report on my site, so I was wondering can any fellow warriors be able to write me a very short report for free on how professional the site is and how it can be made better, if you would be able to do this then please again, PM me!

Thanks, IsayHey

    In terms of google ranking.

    Just outsource some backlink creation on fiverr...

    It's only $5 so..

    Concerning the making money part, i suggest you do the same thing that raised $100 dollars before but this time abide to fiverr rules..

    Cheers,

    ~Gary

      Hm, okay! But Its hard to start off on Fiverr with no feedback or anything but I will add most of the gigs I had before apart from the one that got me banned. And then with the earnings buy backlinks etc!

      Thanks.

        If you have some quality gigs, add them to IMGigz.com, which is another fiver-type site for internet marketers (and you can set your own prices). I'm doing well there with my own gig.

        Hang on a second. You've been banned from Fiverr. Does it say in their TOS that when you're banned you can just set up a new account?

        If not don't you think they may notice you're the same person they banned when all your gigs are the same as last time except for the one that got you banned?

        If it's only a temorary ban, fair enough but if it's not I wouldn't do that. He's been banned, it's not good advice to tell him to just set up an new account and abide by the rules.

    Also there are plenty of places to offer your services like Elance.com, Guru.com and you will be able to charge more than Fiverr - as long as the service is good this is an awesome way to make an income.

    Based on the way you write you seem at least semi intelligent. Quite frankly its surprising how stupid you were to do what you did to get yourself banned. You haven't hit internet marketing rock bottom, you weren't marketing at all, you were acting more like a criminal that was stealing advertiser's dollars.

It's scum like you that gives IMers a bad reputation.
      I made a mistake, I don't think the word "scum" represents me frankly.. I did not break any laws I just broke a terms of service... Yes of course it was my fault but I was not being sensible about how I did it.

      You have branded me as something which I most definitely am not, and then blamed me for the reputation of internet marketers? Your sincerely incorrect.

      Good day.

        You didn't know advertisers invest their hard earned money in those pay per click ads in an effort to get more traffic and sales to put food on the table for their families and the families of their employees and subcontractors? You didn't know clicking those ads will make them pay for those ad clicks without them gaining any benefit of some sort, since you won't be buying their products and service offers, won't be signing up to their mailing lists since you aren't interested in what they're offering, and won't be completing their CPA offers since you're just interested in getting paid by ad publishers for clicking those ads? You didn't know manipulating an official advertising system to your advantage and to the disadvantage leading to losses of people involved in such official advertising systems is fraud? You didn't know laws are there to prevent such fraudulent activities? You didn't know participating in such fraudulent activities is breaking a certain set of laws? Where have you been hiding all this time?

          It was one Gig, It didn't get any sales anyway, I know that is besides the point.. but again, I made a mistake I paid for it by losing my account and having to wait upto 90 days to get my money, I don't see why everyone is turning against me

            You did not make a mistake, if you made a mistake you would not have offered that gig in the first place as you would have thought anyone was alowed to click on their ads.

            You knew it was against the TOS and that is why you offered it.

        Wrong, you did break the law, you unlawfully took money from others without concent as the TOS stated you could not!

            And I am no con artist and to wish me to fail is a horrible thing to do, I would never wish that on anyone... I was never trying to con anyone, I was just careless.
            Even the potential to offer the service is illegal. It does not matter if they were bought or not. You cannot offer a fraudulent service, it does not matter if you gain customers or not.

            I do not wish you success as I pay for adwords and it is people like you that cost me un-needed money!

          Did you realize that the service you were offering also jeopardizes those who purchased from you?

          Adsense people can get their accounts banned if someone is returning to the site and clicking on the ads.

          But here is my question for you - what other gigs were you offering on fiverr? Anything a bit more legal?

            Everything else I offered was 100% LEGAL! I offered articles, reviews alot! I had done 30 orders with 100% positive feedback so do not go about trying to make me look like the evil person here, I offered fast, helpful and kind service.

              It is Illegal. I would also Check your Adsense account , make sure That's not Banned.

              Also , I contacted you On Fiverr about This , and I gave you a heads up. Yet you still didn't correct it.

              I'm sorry but This is your own Fault here. None of us Can help. Everyone Knows That rule of Adsense , Hell I knew it before Adsense. It's common sense here , some that you seem to lack.

              To Get some More money , PM Me. I might be able to Help you out. BUT I won't pay you much , and I'll only pay you by results. If you work 20 Hours and get no results , Bad luck on you.

    If you have any traffic generation skills, you can consider referral programs. Not everybody likes them, but to me...it makes sense. I've done one in particular and made $800 over 4 months. Not enough to quit your job, but I think you can cover the expenses you mentioned above.

    PM me and I can give you the website....and a few tips. Oh, and I'm not sure where you live but you have to be in the US or Canada. (with this particular program)

    Hope this helps a little
