So How Much $$$ Does This Blog Bring In?

by T.I.M.

Surfing the net I came across this google ad & had to click it & was brought here:

"Chedda Hustle's $5,000 a Month from the Government"

I cut off the affiliate link & have NO association/affiliation etc. w/ this site.

This is definitely a well targeted niche, are they just to capture email & build a list? Plus a few bucks in shipping? It's an adsense ad so they're paying...

Probably an upsell later?

    Actually I wanted to re-title this post but couldn't to:

    "Who do you think set up this blog?"

      The site is trying to get people to take the trial offer for the grant kits for which the site owner/affiliate likely gets anywhere between $19.00 to $30.00/lead. Although, I can't speak to those two offers specifically, most Grant offers like that have a terrible reputation especially as it concerns how they handle their negative option marketing.

      These are kind of products that make people suspiscious of ALL online marketing.

      Here are a few more like it (I took off the ".com" extension because why would I want to make it easy for people to go to sites like THESE?), including some where there is a complaint/allegation on ComplaintsBoard that someone used their vacation photograph without their permission:

      * 12KIn30Days | Kevin Hoeffer
      Married to Audrey
      * AdamsMoney | Adam Davis
      * AdamsMoneyBlog | Adam
      * AlexGetsGreen | Alex Johnson

      I've located about 100 of them so far. Usually it's pretty easy if they're hosted on the same IP, but in this case they aren't.

        CuzinTim, also you can't judge this blog by normal blog standards because as someone on the SomethingAwful forum pointed out...it's not a blog at all - it's a "bling blog". ;-)

        Of course it actually isn't a blog either. LOL.

      Hey, I am only 38!!!! LOL, Just kidding.

      That is a very targeted niche site though. Kind of funny, but probably converts pretty well. The site leads to two CPA offers which probably pay $20-30 per lead as mentioned earlier.

      Interesting find though.

    That's funny because I seen an almost identical site with someone else's pictures on it. The storyline was nearly the same and the $5300 was definitely the same one. I got there through adsense from an MMA site.

      It's probably a script that generates these "sites" which the adsense campaign is ran by a couple of blackhat pro's...

      That I can almost guarantee...

      I've seen a handful of these same sites, diff pics etc...

    I just found an adsense ad on my own MMA site for the same thing. Of course I didn't click on it. :-)

    Hey guys , you want to stay away from this - They tell you it is free with a 1.99 to cover shipping. I almost fell for this crazy offer. You have to enter your credit card to cover shipping. I then went and read the terms ( fine print ) and it stated that by entering the credit card number and receiving the free information on grants etc ( 1.99 for shipping ) you also agree to a monthly contract of 80+ dollars for a similar program on grants. I almost hit the send button and after finding out this information I hit cancel !!!

      So were you looking for a new Tiffany watch for ya girl?

      Ha ha yeah there HAS to be some backend to this since he's paying for Google Adwords.

      Actually I have a friend who went to community college w/ a girl who got part of that tuition paid for by the gov't. She ordered the Question Mark Guy (Matthew Leskos) book & part of the grant paid for was because she was left handed & a female.

      I borrowed his book from the library (bigger than a phonebook) & it seems most of the grant money is provided to females starting a business & there are a lot more things offered to minority females. If you're left handed you're golden, seriously there's money put aside for lefty's too.......
