I am in a bit of a stick and I need the warriors help

8 replies
So as i said the other day I am relocating and need to make atleast 1k by sunday. I know it is a bit much but I am getting desperate now. I have one site that is currently making on average since I built it in july. That site is making about 500 a month so far. Which if I take the next check I will be recieving out of the 1k but sunday. That leaves me with having to make 700 or so. I did just build another site not to long ago about golf. How ever what I though would be a good domain turns out is a very poor domain seach wise. I have been building video backlinks for all of my sites this past month or so. The profitable site is only profitable if I throw about 200 in pay perclick money at it.

That has generated me 700 minus the 200 for the pay per click from google. Also after every blog post I make I use only wire to social book mark each post individually. I have been commenting on blogs and forums leaving my link in just about every place I can with in my niche. One quick easy question I do have. Is for the one site about gas kits below. I have only been posting comments on hho blogs and forums should I also be expanding those out to any automotive blog and forum. Since the hho is rather slim and the competition is realitivly weak at the moment. I do have that site indexed but no pr at the moment. The other question I have is there any way with out breaking the bank to make a quick 1k by sunday.

      If I were you, I'd get rid of that second post and put the extra info in an edit of your first - any time I have responded to my own thread before anyone else it has been zapped within minutes. Also, I hope you can reach your goal

        No so much as a goal really but necessary really. Would be nice if it really was a goal. Although if I can find a way to do this by sunday. I would not have to worry about every putting my web biz on the side lines again. Like I have been doing for some time now. Like I said I do have one profitable site that is drawling in around 500 a month profit after throwing 200 in google adwords money at it. Since google does not take pay pal as a payment method. I am unable to add more funds to my adwords account untill I can add more funds on to my card. Which If they did allow pay pal I could throw right around 200 on it right now and another 400 on it later this week. How ever that is kind of defeating the purpose.

        Plus I am not the best with my adwords account. All of my ads are only showing a 2 for a rating which means I can only get the content match to run. I have tried just about everything to clean it up as I could but google does not completely remove the deleted groups I have gone through and deleted out. From one video I watched they look at stucture as well as ad realitivity. So my structure was shot from the get go before I knew anything about adwords or pay per click.

    If you try to make serious money with this niche and try to rely on google, you are doomed. You either pay extremely high prices for your clicks or you will get very little traffic. Google does not like that niche in particular and affiliate marketing in general.

    I suggest you write some articles, post them on ezinearticles, build some backlinks and enjoy some nice income. Only disadvantage: It will take a few weeks until you see results.

      Which niche are you pertaining to there hp. If it is the hho gas kit one I actually do really well with my google ads on that one. That is the site that is currently making me 500 a month since I started it. Which 3/4 of the traffic is from google adwords. I admit it did take me about 100 different ads before they approved even one of them. Now I have 4 of them. And as to the person who commented after you I would not know where to begin on selling the site. I did see some sites which where making less money going for less. I would hate to have that site go but I still have the templete I used on that one which I know there are similar sites aout there but the ones running those sites did not do half the work I did to get it to rank as high up as mine is so far.

    Hi Pete,

    You mention you are desperate. If you are TRULY desperate -- and if you have a way to pay your other bills aside from the $500 you're making with your site -- then you might consider selling the profitable site.

    Doing so will put a quick $1k or so in your pocket... but naturally you lose the income stream. So, this suggestion just depends on your priorities and your desperation level.

    Cheers,
    Becky

    HI Petevamp,

    Don't sell your profitable site and 1k is not that much right. Just borrow and maybe pay a fix interest at a fix date after 1 month you made back the monthly.

    Hope this helps.

      Barrowing would be fine except for one thing. My credit is shot from my layoff 2 years ago which forced me to try my hands at im again after not doing it for 7 years because of the hours I was working. I just went to try and get a new cell a few weeks ago. Just to give you an idea of how shot it is. Any how for a 50$ a month plan tmobile verizon and all the others wanted me to give them a 500$ deposit. Now that is for a cell phone can you image going to a bank and say I need a loan of 1k just to get things back on track. All while this recession of ours deepens. Now the last time I was trying to get a loan from a bank just so I could replace the motor in my car i was turned down faster then heck. Granted I was only working part time for ups at the time and had not started into my internet bus yet. I just got it going here this year and took me untill a few months ago to start seeing a noticeable amount of money coming in. It wasnt untill last month really when things started getting much better. Again that is only if I have the extra cash as well to throw at adwords to get my ads going for my hho site. Last week was the slowest week from the ppc campaign spent 70 and only got 45 back on that one. Although I know the campaign is very profitable. The test campaign I ran starting in late june for the hho site only using 20 in google ad money i drew in 5 sales over a course of 3 days. Those five sales totaled over 250$. I thought it was just a fluke so i tested another a few days later same thing. I then ran into some money troubles for a couple of weeks and could not keep it going. So I did the typicle link building. Visiting every blog and forum within the niche leaving a comment and getting the back links. Since my site is not 3 months old it has no ranking which slides it down the searches. I do check my positions alot just to see. The are currently fluctuating anywhere from 1-40 spots at a time hour after hour. Bing has been giving me the best rankings for most of my indexed pages for that site but still very few front page results. However I do tend to dominate other keywords with in the niche using traffic geyser. I checked one of my videos the other day and found I had 4 front page results from one video on 5 different keywords. They where not the top spots though normally I do not get higher then the 5th spot on the search. Most the time starts right below the wiki sites and eza articles at the top. I personally do not use eza anymore because of a fight with them spaming my gmail with 5 or six emails in one day and one bounced which got my account suspended every time.Then having to switch emails for them i got tired of doing that after the 5th time.
