FINALLY - I've Pulled my Finger out

For a good few months, I was just pottering around with my sites. Yes, they make money, but nothing like the gurus of the IM world. But a few weeks a go, I decided I really need to pull my finger out and change my ways.

Originally, I was writing, 1/2/3 articles a day and maybe spending an hour on SEO. I thought IM is for me because I can sit on my arse doing F*CK ALL and then earn millions. It doesn't work like this!

So what have I done to change my ways:

1. I have set up a new website. I will still be working on my old ones, but this is a new venture where my attitude is GOING to change.

2. I have written up a plan that I MUST follow for this site (outlined below). Boring I know. But it works for me. Well has done so far.

I won't be mentionning the domain of the site or the name of it here but will mention the broad niche (weight loss, I know dangerous).

So the plan:

1. Build the site and get it ranking for number 1 for a certain low competition keyword I have managed to find. It gets over 30,000 searches a month and in a few weeks, I have managed to get it to the top of page 2.

2. Build a list, ultimately of 25,000 members. A tall ask, I know, but doable. My ultimate goal is ten times this in the weight loss which is already bound to be profitable.

3. I will be giving away a free weight loss guide with this. Basically, a 7 day eating plan with recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner for 7 days.

4. After 7 days, I will have an automatic email sent to them offering my advanced 1 month eating plan for $37. Contains recipes for every day of the month blah blah blah.

5. Aim to get a 1% conversion rate on my list, which I believe is doable, especially because the free product will be extremely high quality (even if I do say it myself). So 1% of the initial 25,000 is 250 = Roughly $9000. Obviously, this is all based on whatifs and maybes. But I will also be looking at getting a far larger list.

So basically, wish me luck. And it's just to say NEVER GIVE UP and DON'T THINK IM IS EASY. YOU need to get that finger out of you know where and get working.

Please don't slate my idea. Let me fail so I can learn what goes wrong instead of poking huge holes in it.

Thanks and enjoy
