I was thinking about.. when do you actually work (do seo, write content, market your stuff)? My daily routine is pretty messed up to say the least.

Morning: Read news, browse forums, check twitter

Day: Scratch my balls, go to gym

Evening: Watch TV, study

Night: *BOOM* start working on SEO, writing content, sending emails etc etc. And I'm mostly doing this till 3AM until my brain and eyes freezes.

I'm really thinking about setting up a daily routine or smth like that, otherwise things just go out of hands.

How are you guys managing to do work? This internet is really disturbing thing, you know.

    I have pretty much the same schedule...the only difference is that I scratch my balls in the evening instead of during the day.

    I have no schedule, schedules are for people that work 9-5 jobs. Yesterday I went to sleep at 8:30 AM, awake again early afternoon. The graveyard shift is when I get most things done.

    The last 4 hours I've been researching new traffic sources (jackpot), man I love people that are new to a niche that they just can't believe is so awesome. I found another niche forum that is dedicated to newbies (few thousand laser targeted traffic) on an entry level product that sells for $2,500 - $4,000 from a single branded retailer (offline catalog + online site) which actually is a pretty good deal considering the bundle of niche software that's included. What makes that so awesome is, the software has a learning curve which gets my foot in the door for anyone new in the niche (Let me show you how that's done. ).

    If you can find a niche where there's an entry level product that has a learning curve & you know the niche, go for it because the traffic will follow you the more you help them. It's kind of like filial imprinting , the newbies don't forget where they first started out & who helped them learn the niche, which also helps generate new traffic from referrals.

    The best-known form of imprinting is filial imprinting, in which a young animal acquires several of its behavioral characteristics from its parent.
    What I'm getting at is, the first person that makes an impression on a newbie (by actually helping them) will have an easier time retaining that same traffic (loyalty). It all starts with a legit site/product & actually being interested in the niche.

      Nice.

      That's some Derek Halpern Social Triggers stuff right there.
