Google Adsense/Search Problems 2Much? Need Inspirition? Stop ..... Collaborate...and Drop Ship

I don't know how others have felt, with all the Google changes but I know it's disqusted me.

I make more from YouTube videos than I do from website content now. The CPM on website content gradually decreased and Google knocked off many of my niche earning websites from search, without 'good' reason. All legitimate unique content.

This year, I began searching for an answer. A cure to that 'sick' feeling I get everytime I see an update. What did i find?

e-Commer Sites! Before you say "oh that's nothing new" of course I know that. NOTHING is new under the sun but I feel there's probably a lot like me, that have long overlooked the potential here.

My first eCommerce store was launched at the beginning of this year. I netted about $3.2k profit drop-shipping in 2 months and then sold it for $7k to someone else. That's over $10k profit in under 3 months.

Can you live with that ? Can it replace your other income?

A lucky niche I stumbled upon, it's definitely not likely I'll find these often BUT , I made $70+ profit from each sale. That beasts any CPM payout and I was able to sell the business, without putting 50 pages of content together. And without outsourcing any work.

And I repeated the process. My second store, inspired by the first, I launched in July. Earned $9.7k in about 75 days. I'm currently selling that business and will likely score $12k from it, just going for the 'now' and not maintaining. 19% of my traffic is direct / type-in which should go to show, how effective branding your own product can be.

Now my stories are small. I just wanted to share with you guys some videos that I found inspiring on Alibaba.

These guys made GREAT careers from creating a brand and eCommerce store of their own. Check it out!

Hopefully this inspires some others on Warrior who are struggling with all the Google changes.

The biggest beauty of this, if you have paypal or moneybookers, the money is fast and direct. You dont have to wait 30 days for someone to hand you a check. And I'd say be careful. If google's ok cutting people out of business as they've been doing lately, it's likely Google will start getting funny about checks in the future.

No morals behind that corporation. I wouldn't depend on Paypal either.

Some marketing techniques i found successful:

- Getting Google News & Yahoo! News approved sites to allow you a blog post!
(*enriches your domain brand and gets your store on front page | PRweb, PRLeap, etc can help*)

- Buying Blog Posts on Large sites within the niche you're targeting

- Posting niche relevant news content with 'catchy' headlines . Once people know your brand that direct traffic = great referrals.

Just hoping I can help a fellow Warrior get re-inspired by this post. If you're struggling, try it out. Try to target some product that has a NICE mark up or a very high volume.

Some niches I saw that were of interest to me:
- RC Devices ( RC Cars, Boats, Helicopters)
- Electric Scooters
- Skateboards

Hopefully this post makes it through, whomever is deleting half of what i post now. It seems a moderator does not like me sharing certain privy information. Hopefully this forum hasn't sold-out to political ties.

God Bless , Good Luck to Success Warriors!
