$6.000 / MONTH Within 40 DAYS ! - The Blueprint! - NEW

166 replies
First of all I'd like to clarify the fact that this is the net profit, not an overall income. Second, I truly believe that anyone can do it.

I'll try to keep things as short as posible because my goal here is NOT to brag but to offer everyone reading this the necessary confidence to just DO IT.

Before I start I also want to specify that I currently own 126 sites and have a list of a little over 105.000 subscribers, so I kind of know what I'm talking about .

A few months ago my brother in law paid us a visit. It was sunday morning and we were supposed to go shoot some hoops.

Anyway, I told him I needed to verify a few accounts and ten minutes later he joined me after hearing my wife telling him that I just made another $1.200 while sleeping.

Needless to say he was like WT@, $1.200 in less than 20 hours?

I explained to him that I was achieving results like this just from my affiliate promotions. He knew I'm also a product owner and so he always thought that this is the way I was earnings so much money on monthly basis.

What followed was nothing short of amazing for him.

He went from earning a big nothing online to $6.000 per month in just 40 days, of course under my close guidance.

So this is what I told him to do and to my surprise he actually listened to me (and is now earning around $6.000/month).

I explained to him that in order to produce money you have to sell something. And in order to sell you need to know what people WANT.

Always keep this in mind: most of us buy things because we want them, not because we need them.

This is the first category of buyers I advised him to sell to.

The second one is composed of people that have a very specific problem and NEED a fast solution (i.e. they have an infected computer and NEED an antivirus program to clean it up because otherwise they can't simply use the pc).

So I showed him how to first do market research.

Then I told him we need to find out what keywords people use to find the products he choosed to promote.

Out of all the keywords he came up with (using free keyword tools by the way) I told him that he must choose the ones that have at least 50 real searches per day and at most 10.000 competing pages (not websites) optimized for the same keywords as ours.

And also that he must check what type of sites appear on the first 3 spots of Google's first page for our targeted keywords.

I told him this for 2 reasons:

- the first 3 spots receive most of the traffic;
- if the first 3 spots (where we want to be) are well established sites, with thoundands of links, than it will be very hard to beat them so it's best to just find another keyword.

He did exactly what I explained to him and he came up with a list of 30-40 very well researched keywords in different niches, each having at least 50 searches per day and no more than 10.000 competing pages.

After that I gave him a list of 15 web 2.0 properties (wordpress, blogger, livejournal etc) and told him to make a link wheel out of them all poiting to the money site.

He posted unique articles on each property of the wheel (the articles were optimized for that specific keyword he was targeting), pinged them, bookmarked them, submitted their rss feeds to rss directories...the works.

Within the first week he was owning multiple rankings on the first page of Google for dozens of keywords, each keyword promoting a certain product from Clickbank and earning him around $6.000 per month in total within 40 days.

I hope everybody understands that this is not rocket science, if you want to make money online you have to go out there and just DO IT.

Stop procrastinating, stop reading method after method and just pick one. If it works for you then scale it up and move on to the next one.

I've posted this because I truly believe that anyone can make money online if they move their a@@ and get to work.

So...will you be the next one to share your success story with the rest of the warriors?

GET TO WORK NOW !!!

    ^^^ This. I respect you for clarifying that it wasnt total profit. Most people would have left that fact out.

      Since the guy was doing mostly SEO-type promotion... well,
      the sort of promotion that brings a combination of real visitors
      and search engine spiders, then I presume the project is
      pretty much all profit, and the $6k would be the size of
      his affiliate income.

      I often fall off the wagon myself and do not drive traffic as
      well as I know how to. On one level having no website or
      product or service of your own frees you up to invest
      100% of your efforts in actually promoting your offer.

      Good advice here.

      Like I said in the begining of this thread: $6.000 is the net profit and it's all profit because everything was achieved using free traffic.

      The idea behind my post is that with the proper knowledge and the needed dedication and perseverince anyone can make money.

      How fast? It depends on number of hours one invest in his internet business.

        Could you just clarify - I see someone else has asked this question as well - do the web 2.0 posted unique articles lead directly to the sales page of the item/product being promoted, or do they first go to your own sales page / product review page???

        Thanks

        Great Jumping Jehosaphat .... 6,000 dollars or euros or whatever is
        a lot of dinero... I am very impressed

        You know you could turn that whole scenario into a WSO product.

        Also, I have to get use to people in the UK using 6.000 , when we state
        it here in the USA as 6,000 ...

        We see 6.000 as being 6 dollars, which is not much at all... lol

          Annie, what form does a link wheel has ? Round, right? So it means it's built around something.

          That beeing said, each article posted on these 15 web 2.0 properties contains one link to the next property in the wheel and one link to the money site, which in this case is a product review page.

          And Sligon, just to be clear...it's 6 thousands dollars .

      @Andi

      I have several questions about your strategy.

      1. Did your brother in law outsource articles that were published on Web 2.0 properties?
      2. How did your brother in law reviewed products? Did he buy them to write a review?
      3. What was the money site? Was it domain on his hosting account or was it Web 2.0 website? Also was it regular website or blog? What was the source of traffic?
      4. Did he use keyword in Web 2.0 properies' URLs? Did he use keyword in money site's URL?
      5. How did he research keywords? How did he know which keywords to pick?
      6. How did your brother in law know which products to promote? Did he promote hot selling products?

      Thanks.

      Hey Andi


      You said he researched 30-40 good keywords; how many keywords per
      niche , per product?

      If it's one keyword per niche, then you are promoting 30-40 products , or
      is it 5 keywords per niche, per one product , and the products are
      unrelated , and you end up promoting for example 6 or 7 products ?

      Now I have confused myself .... :p


      This is a great Post ... thanks for sharing

        Hey BayAreaSteve, you are so funny!

        I, too, am confused - so many questions people have posted.

        Andi...

        One challenge that always stands in my way in keyword search is finding ones that fit those excellent numbers - 50 searches a day (1500 month), with less than 10,000 competition.

        I've searched several niches for such keywords and have found very few. In some cases, none. I've driven myself insane doing keyword search and come up empty handed more often than not.

        Oh, I've found keywords alright, but the searches are closer to 150-500 a month and the majority have over 30,000+ competing sites, usually much more.

        So what's your secret weapon in finding such great keywords - long tail, and all?

        I've used Google's tool, Overture (or whatever it's called now) and a software program called Ad Word Analyzer which gives searches AND competition (when it works). If I use Google's tool, I spend hours taking each keyword, entering it into Google to get the competition numbers. Can be very time consuming and frustrating.

          I do keyword research for Warriors all day long and with 1000+ keyword lists compiled this year alone, I have seen the actual keyword results for several hundred different niches.

          But you are right: finding keyword phrases that have 50 daily searches with less than 10K competition is not easy. And with the Google Sniper method becoming so popular, finding those keyword phrases is becoming even more challenging (meaning, when "snipers" find these keyword phrases and throw up dozens of website real estate, it's driving the competition numbers up past 10K).

          But those keyword phrases do exist. What would you do with a keyword phrase that gets searched for 350 times per day but only has 8922 competition? Drooling yet?

          Keep searching. They're there.

            Well, I haven't quite found THAT quality of "winner" yet, but I have one keyword that just blew me away... 12,100 searches a month (400+ a day) and only 19,600 competing sites. Talk about fantastic odds! I'm convinced there must have been something wrong with the Google keyword tool when I ran THAT test.

            Another one has 2,400 searches (80 a day), 711 competition.

            It's not so much the numbers, but the ratio that matters most. If a keyword only gets 10, 20 or 30 searches a day but there are only 100 competing sites, it is easy to own the top 3 stops. In fact, if you find enough of those low search / low competition keywords, you can do quite well. I've heard of marketers who have mastered this method and are making a good income because there really is no competition to speak of.

        TSc, I'd personally start with the second keyword, BUT you have to take into consideration what kind of websites are ranked in the first 5 positions on Google for that keyword. If you see the likes of Amazon, Ebay, Wikipedia or sites with thousands of backlinks, then go with the other one.

        Priyatham, it's important to take action, but in the right direction (i.e. follow the right mentors).

          I've done that and decided for the first option because on the second LTK are some sides with nearly 2000 backlinks.

          My opinion is: Go with the first, you will see results faster, with less work(not that you should work any easier).
          And thats another point - i've done to many projects in other work fields which turn out to be a dead end story so it would be good to see some results fast.

          And, Vendetta, i LOVE database designing, i like every kind of design a system, may it be a technical, economic or social system.
          But database and web scripting is time-consuming and has no return of investment without a good marketing.
          But if i made a good marketing i could earn money without the time-consuming programming part by use affiliates and do the programmings when i sit in the garden of my irish castle paid by IM.

          ---

          By the way - there was an interesting phenomenon on my research results.
          The count of competitors change by the factor 10 when i was recheck them 10 hours later on my main work.
          Yesterday at home there were 19000 competitors for the second LTK, today morning on work there were nearly 200000 competitors and now at home there are 19000 again.
          Am i stupid?
          Are there any settings ive to made in the google search?
          Or does the aliens manipulating the big G results? oO

    Andi,

    Great post mate, should inspire anyone to take action here!

    It took me a while debating whether this kinda method works, but after weeks with nothing to show for myself, I decided to stop debating, and JUST DO IT!

    And guess what? It really did work, and all I did was simple stuff that anyone can do!

    The same method as Andi's above, but with 1 keyword promoting a CPA offer in the Health niche. That's all it took to finally get me into action, and keep coming back for more!

    So if you are the same as I was, then take a quick 5 minute breather, then get your head down and start your campaign immediately and keep going until its finished, you won't fail, unless you quit!

    A few months ago my brother in law paid us a visit. It was sunday morning and we were supposed to go shoot some hoops.

    Anyway, I told him I needed to verify a few accounts and ten minutes later he joined me after hearing my wife telling him that I just made another $1.200 while sleeping.

    Needless to say he was like WT@, $1.200 in less than 20 hours?

    So this is what I told him to do and to my surprise he actually listened to me (and is now earning around $6.000/month).

    I explained to him that in order to produce money you have to sell something. And in order to sell you need to know what people WANT.

    Always keep this in mind: most of us buy things because we want them, not because we need them.

    This is the first category of buyers I advised him to sell to.

    The second one is composed of people that have a very specific problem and NEED a fast solution (i.e. they have an infected computer and NEED an antivirus program to clean it up because otherwise they can't simply use the pc).

    So I showed him how to first do market research.

    Then I told him we need to find out what keywords people use to find the products he choosed to promote.

    Out of all the keywords he came up with (using free keyword tools by the way) I told him that he must choose the ones that have at least 50 real searches per day and at most 10.000 competing pages (not websites) optimized for the same keywords as ours.

    And also that he must check what type of sites appear on the first 3 spots of Google's first page for our targeted keywords.

    I told him this for 2 reasons:

    - if the first 3 spots (where we want to be) are well established sites, with thoundands of links, than it will be very hard to beat them so it's best to just find another keyword.

    He did exactly what I explained to him and he came up with a list of 30-40 very well researched keywords in different niches, each having at least 50 searches per day and no more than 10.000 competing pages.

    After that I gave him a list of 15 web 2.0 properties (wordpress, blogger, livejournal etc) and told him to make a link wheel out of them all poiting to the money site.

    He posted unique articles on each property of the wheel (the articles were optimized for that specific keyword he was targeting), pinged them, bookmarked them, submitted their rss feeds to rss directories...the works.

    Within the first week he was owning multiple rankings on the first page of Google for dozens of keywords, each keyword promoting a certain product from Clickbank and earning him around $6.000 per month in total within 40 days.

    I hope everybody understands that this is not rocket science, if you want to make money online you have to go out there and just DO IT.

    Stop procrastinating, stop reading method after method and just pick one. If it works for you then scale it up and move on to the next one.

    I've posted this because I truly believe that anyone can make money online if they move their a@@ and get to work.

    So...will you be the next one to share your success story with the rest of the warriors?

      Hey guys, thanks for the kind words, I posted this success story because my brother in law knew NOTHING when he started and just by showing him the right way to JUST DO IT he's now earning around $6.000/month.

      And I know he's grateful because they're expecting a baby, so....

      Like some of you said: YES> you do have to work, but after you put this system in place it's all hands free.

      Boris, to anweryour questions:

      1. Did your brother in law outsource articles that were published on Web 2.0 properties?

      No he didn't, but that was his choice, he's just good at writing, but of course you can do that for a few bucks/article.

      2. How did your brother in law reviewed products? Did he buy them to write a review?

      No, he didn't bought them, he did a thorough research about those products.

      3. What was the money site? Was it domain on his hosting account or was it Web 2.0 website? Also was it regular website or blog? What was the source of traffic?

      The money site was his, but that's just his choice. You can have a 2.0 property as the money site without no problems.

      4. Did he use keyword in Web 2.0 properies' URLs? Did he use keyword in money site's URL?

      The keywords used in the 2.0 properies' URLs and in the money site were the exact keywords he was optimising them for.

      5. How did he research keywords? How did he know which keywords to pick?

      Like I said in the original post: I told him to pick keywords that are receiving at least 50 real searches per day and at most 10.000 competing pages (not websites) optimized for the same keywords as ours. The keyword research was done using the adwords keyword tool. Of course now he's using Market Samurai.

      6. How did your brother in law know which products to promote? Did he promote hot selling products?

      Like I said: he promoted Clickbank products, but the trick here is to think outside the box and come up with alternative keywords, not those used by everyone else that have millions of competitors.

      Sligon00: he choosed one keywords per link wheel for optimisation purposes. But no, he did not promoted 40 different products. It's more like 5-6 keywords per product.

      Hey Big JP, thanks for sharing that with us. It just goes to show that like I said, anyone can do this, if YOU JUST DO IT.

      So guys, this is the opinion of someone owning 126 sites with a little bit of experience : find ONE methos that you want to try out and just get to work. If others are earning money with it, it means that you CAN too.

          Thanks Andi,

          For somebody new these are great results but most often when i try to register keywords in URL's these are already taken...

          Also i have question about Linkwheel:

          What if some of those 2.0 Web properties have "rel=nofollow". This would mean hole in Linkwheel as Google won't follow.

          Should i only post articles on "rel=dofollow" Web 2.0 properties?

          Andi, could you give us a list of 15 Web 2.0 properties that you gave to your brother in law?

          Thanks.

      Boris, try registering the URL's with dashes between them, also try putting "the", "my" before your targeted keywords.

      You're right about the "rel=nofollow" situation, but some of these properties will rank on there own because of the pagerank.

      I recommend you start by posting unique articles on "rel=dofollow" Web 2.0 properties. It's a little bit more work to come up with unique articles for each of the properties, but trust me, it will pay off.

      Regarding the list of these 15 properties, Big JP gave us a link to a great thread with lots of 2.0 properties.

      Good luck to you guys.

      What he means is that those websites are not specifically targeting that keyword. That gives you a way better shot at getting on the first page of Google, gaining traffic and sales. Hope I helped and great thread btw!!

    If you honestly dont like your job, house or life. You need to sit down and write what exactly you dont like. Then you need to understand the only way the things you dont like are gonna go away/change. Is if you sit down and work your ass off. You also need to understand if you put 16 hours a day in, your problems are going to go away twice as fast as 8 hours a day. So it becomes your choice how quickly you want to be living on easy street.

    Liane, I already have one daughter, so ...

    Boris, you have in my original post everything I showed my brother in law to do that got him to $6.000 per month. And the best thing about this method is that you can scale it up.

    Valorie, my advice to you is to bookmark posts like this and re-read them to get yourself motivated.

    Sugicloud, competing pages (not websites) means that a certain website can have hundreds of pages, but only one page is optimized specifically for the same keyword as ours. When you look for a keyword in qoutes it will return the number of pages specifically optimized for that keyword, not websites as a whole.

    Opportunites, thanks for the kind words and remember to never give up. Perseverance doesn't costs you anything, but it will cost you a lot of money not to be perseverant.

    Anne Hays, everything I taught my brother in law is explained in my original post.

    Sylviad, you have to understand something about this method: once you find the right keywords, build a proper linkwhell and your money site (or one of the 2.0 properties in the wheel) ranks on the first page of Google in the first 3 spots, than it's all free money. Keyword research is indeed the most important step of the process and ones you find the gems...you get my point.

    You don't have to find keywords that only have 10.000 competing pages, I'm just saying that this is the easiest situation. You can go for more competing keywords, it's just that it will take a little bit longer to reach that coveted first spot on Google.

    Manual keyword research is hard, that is why I adviced my brother in law to buy MS. I trust me, with this software you will find those golden gems.

    And yes, I always go for the long tail keyword. It's not just that it's easier to optimize long tail keywords, but they convert a lot better than general keywords.

    As Vendetta said, the more you work the more you make. The biggest problem of a begginer IT's NOT lack of knowledge (there's no such thing when you realy want to succeed), it's procrastination and fear of failure.

      So, just to be clear...

      The money site, as well as the 15 link wheel sites, are all optimized for the same keyword? Or are the link wheel sites targetting different (but related) keywords?

      When you say your bro-in-law was ranking for several keywords, you mean for different niches? or are all those keywords linked to the one money site?

    Okay I am not sure I fully understand the WHEEL concept. Am I making multiple wheels for multiple key words or what?

    Lets make an example and see if its right.

    I create a page on a web site. On this site I have an article for a keyword. At the end of this article it links to the product I have selected from click bank. I then go on 15 different web 2.0 sites and create pages on each with the same key word titling each page with a unique article about the keyword. Each web 2.o page I created links one to another until its full circle and each web 2.0 page also links to the hub of that wheel which is the original page on the site i created.

    I must create a new page for each keyword on each web 2.0 site and the main site. so in essence If I am posting on 15 web 2.0 sites including my main site I am making 16 unique articles for a single key word and I repeat this for each keyword I do. So if I am doing 5 key words per product I am creating 5 key word titled pages on the main site and 80 web 2.0 pages.

    Is this correct??? If so that is in fact a LOT of work.

    I'm full steam ahead on this "blueprint" just hit a couple snags any help is appreciated

    This is my soul focus from sun up to sun down until Dec 31st so if anyone else is also doing this I would be more then happy to share my journey with you if you share yours with me... perhaps we can help one another out :p

    It sounds to me as if he suggests 1 keyword per product. So, one main site based on a single keyword, and 15 Web 2.0 properties optimized for the same keyword.

    It doesn't sound like he's targeting multiple keywords with the money site.

    My question, then, is arent your 15 Web 2.0 sites all competing against each other for that #1 spot? Ideally, we want the money site to be at the top, not a site from the linkwheel. What if our Squidoo page outranks our money page?

      It seems that a 15 site linkwheel was built around each keyword. So if he had 30 - 40 keywords that would mean 450 - 600 web 2.0 sites, each having a unique article (450-600 articles total). The main site would also have the keyword optimized for it as well.

      The main site would have 15 backlinks coming from the web 2.0 sites with each web 2.0 site linking to another, so it would be competing with the other web 2.0 sites for multiple listings for each keyword.

      Is this correct?

      Gtrplyr, the money site is optimized mainly for one keyword, as well as the 15 link wheel sites.

      My brother in law was and still is to this day ranking for a lot of keywords now, but they are not all in the same niche, it's more like 6-7 keywords/niche.

      We're building these linkwheels around our main money sites because of the "power" each of these 2.0 properties have on there own.

      For example wordpress.com and bloglines.com both have a PR of 9. And Blogger.com, Vox.com and Livejournal.com each has a PR of 8.

      And Gtrplyr: when you're optimizing a site for a certain keyword you'll want to own as many spots as posible on Google's first page for that keyword. So all of your 2.0 properties competing against each other IS A GOOD THING. In fact this is the holy grail of search engine optimization: owning multiple ranking for a keyword on the first page of Google. The more properties you have on the first page the more visitors you'll generate and the more money you'll make.

      Vendetta, I see you understood the process and if you build it the money will come .

      Yes, it's a lot of work, but after you set up this whole system and you're ranking for your targeted keywords it's all autopilot income.

      Kevin, you'll be using the same 15 (or 20 or 30) web 2.0 properties for any of your targeted keywords. You will not be using different properties for different keywords. The idea is to use these high ranking properties because of their page rank power.

      The number of 2.0 properties used for a certain linkwheel depends on the competing number of pages optimized for the same keywords as ours. The more competition a keyword has the more 2.0 properties will be using.

      ElMundodelExito, the success of a linkwheel depends on a lot of factors: how competitive was your targeted keyword, how many 2.0 properties did you use, what kind of sites were on the first 3 to 5 spots in Google for that keyword (are they authoritative sites, like maybe wikipedia, amazon, ebay etc or simply sites that have thousands of backlinks). The articles have around 500 words and the keyword appears 3-4 times.

      Keweus, anyone can see you're a begginer and that's just fine, you're here to learn and I'll gladly answer any of your questions, but please DO NOT come in the biggest internet marketing forum on the planet and say: "You cannot make $6,000/month, in 40 days". There are lots of people in here that have made as much as $10.000 in just 7 days from a simple WSO. I've personally made a little over $70.000 in just one day from launching a coaching program a year ago and I onw sites that were earning me $5.000 in just 10 days from hitting the first page of Google.

      My brother in law built a business for himself that took him from nothing to $6.000 per month in EXACTLY 40 days under my close guidance and his been earning that much each and every month since july, so this IS NOT a random result. And if you realy want to succeed you'll search this forum and you'll see hundreds of success stories from warriors using this system.

      Furthermore, I'm now in the process of showing my in law how to outsource most of the tasks so he can scale this system up and be on the way to the next level: $10.000 per month. Good luck to you and to all of you guys.

        I got that the same 15 properties would be used over and over again. The 450 - 600 was the total amount of web 2.0 properties that were used by repeatedly using the same 15 or more web 2.0 sites for 30-40 keywords.

        What I wanted other readers to get is that around 450 - 600 articles were written in total for the 30-40 keywords. That is like 15 -20 articles a day for a month. This reminds me of the people that write 10 articles a day for ezinearticles and make around $3000 a month.

        The difference here is that different web 2.0 sites are used and being backlinked than just pounding out articles day after day.

      If you have made nothing, it's easy to see how you would be so skeptical. There is a difference between "easy" and "work free". It is "easy" when you understand how it's done. It is "not easy" in terms of the effort you put into it. It takes hard work and dedication as well as persistence.

      I give credit to Andi for the way he addressed your negative post.

      People are asking questions because they want to understand - to flush out any hidden clues that might be in Andi's methods.

      The key to making money online is to have a good product that people actually want, a method (web site) to pre-sell those people on the product if it's an affiliate product, and a perfected plan to drive traffic to that offer.

      If you do all of these things wll, you WILL make money - whether it's $6,000 or $2,000 or even $500 will prove that it works. Once you see some results, you ramp up your methods until you ARE making $6,000 or any number you wish.

      Andi...

      I have 1-2 concerns about this method that no one has brought up yet.

      Is there a foreseeable problem with Web 2.0 sites deciding to put a halt to the link-building wheel method you recommend? You know how it goes. Sites will change their rules because maybe the way people are using them doesn't work for the Web 2.0 Operations, and suddenly, they lose their worth to marketers.

      For example, if ezinearticles.com once allowed affiliate links and now they don't. Wordpress does not now allow affiliate marketing (links) alone and will shut your blog down if you focus strictly on affiliate links. (Don't know if either of these sites ever did allow affiliate links, it's just an example of how such sites can change).

      The other thing is the life expectancy of all those Web 2.0 sites in your link wheel. If you do not do something with them once they are set up, will they not be shut down or moved into archives or something?

      Also, would not the Web 2.0 sites that you create lose favor with Google if you do not constantly add new content?

      I'm seeing this as quite a massive job if you have 15-20 sites in each link wheel, multiply that by different keywords and different niches.

      And then there is the duplicate content issue, which might be a moot point if all you really want are the back links. If all your 15-20 sites have one article that is different from the one you have on your own site, surely Google will not pick up all of your Web 2.0 sites when someone searches using your keyword.

      BTW Andi, thanks for an excellent thread. I've copied all the relevant parts into Word and will be printing it out for reference as I work on this.

      Maybe I'm misunderstanding the question, but if they are web 2.0 propeerties you aren't hosting them. The whole point is to use those web 2.0 sites and their page rank and history to provide link juice to your money site.

      Well Andi - i think your brother in law just got lucky, that's all. Often when i try to register URL with keyword, it is taken. Adding something at the end or start of keyword doesn't give much boost as it could be with EXACT keyword in URL. Afterall you have to hardly rely on SEO and if your Web 2.0 page ranks on 1st page, then consider yourself lucky. And certainly if your Web 2.0 pages will rank in top 3 then consider yourself the most lucky guy.

      You can waste your time on linkwheels, but is it worth it at the end? You never know...Time is all you've got to lose.

        No offense, but this is coming from someone trying to rent out his sig for $5 a month.

        Sure, having the exact keyword phrase is the ideal, but you can't tell me that having www.thekeyword.com won't give you some additional SEO juice.

        If the brother in law accomplished this feat in just one niche, then maybe we could possibly consider it luck. But he's done it over a few different niches.

        And I'm sorry, but making $6000 in IM is rarely attributed to mere luck.

                I have to say, I've been reading through these forums a lot over the past few months, and this has got to be the best IM community I've found. Posts like this are very powerful and motivating.

                It just goes to show that, while it's so easy to get sucked into the information overload stage (points to self) getting out there, putting a plan in place, and actually doing the work is the only thing that will get you moving in the right direction. Now I just need to figure out how to follow that advice .

    Would you be able to explain choosing keywords abit better? I am getting hung up here. Simply pointing to a great guide would also be helpful but so far everything I have turned up in google has not been helpful for me choosing successful keywords so I just keep pounding away trying to find new ones...

    On day 2 of implementing this strategy.

    Actually Andi I now have a very specific question.

    When looking at competition for your keywords did you use the allintitle: (your key word here) search function and see if that number is below 50 thousand competing pages or did you simply type the keyword in and check that way???

    ANYONE ELSE DOING THIS METHOD SUCCESSFULLY PLEASE CHIME IN WITH AN ANSWER.

    Honestly guys I am so appreciative for all your help. Getting a single question answered can literally save me(and others) a couple WEEKS of work. This forum is a GOD SEND.

    Good thread and It' nice to see you replying to everyones posts. Congrats to your brother in law. Definitely lucky to have you a his mentor.

    I have 2 questions;

    You say that most of the money is on auto-pilot once the system is set up. Now I've done some Article Marketing in the past (which this essentially falls under) and within a few days to a week my web 2.0 properties would fall from the first page of google all the way off the first 100 results. Granted these were fairly competitive keywords and the result of poor KW research. My question is this; Do your brother in laws (and yours) articles stay on the top of google for extended periods of time without any backlinking after the initial wave? Is the fact that mine fell so quickly due to the competitiveness of the KW's? How do you maintain rankings without having to keep backlinking non stop?

    My second question or really, request is this; Could you please tell us a bit more regarding outsourcing and scaling up the method? Does this simply end with hiring article writers to do the writing or what other areas do you automate and outsource?

    Thanks.

    Personally once I set this up I dont want to have more involvment then reviewing what happened the past week in my buisness over the morning smoothie while checking the latest world events on the tele for ten minutes.


    I would start with paying someone to fill in my... not so strong suits and then move to filling in the rest of the tasks that need to be done.

    1. Creating Landing pages
    2. Writing Articles(outsource the hell out of this)
    3. Finding Key Words
    4. Someone to find the employees, interview and train them
    5. An accountant- to make sure everyone gets payed (especially you), everything is a tax write off that I buy or my company buys, and all the other things these money geniuses do
    6. A lawyer - (when you make money you get sued, its the way of the world)
    7. A Manager to make sure everything is running smoothly, things are scaled evenly and makes sure everything is EFFICIENT and COST EFFECTIVE.

    A sports chalet store near my house found that shutting off every other flourecent light bulb in the store saved them 1 million dollars a year. Thats quite a huge amount of savings for a single store.

    I am working to get my biz to this status by march 2010


    p.s this post is more for me then you guys but I thought id share my outsourcing plan

    Thank you so much for sharing.

    However here my take in this. Your brother in law did not start with nothing. If anything he started with a very very worthy and expensive resource all for nothing handed to him on a sliver platter.

    He had a mentor, a coach and a relative with a big heart and an accountability partner to help him along.

    All that you have said here is 10% of what you told your brother in law and I appreciate it.

    There are so many questions to a complete newbie.

    What is the diffrenece between a niche/keyword/longtail keyword and how to use them on anchot texts in the blogs and sites. These ares simple to many but to newbie they are all complex.

    What are the best web 2.0 properties, some are not so good. I realized this because I bought a similar blue print that promised to help me make about 100/day with the linking. I have solely focused on it and whoo it is work and no results. And with no no one to ask I guess, I have to move on and see what will work.

    To all the newbies, pick the ten percent here and run with it. Then Google to find out all the other things that you do not know until your hands bleed. Do it to the later and if it does not work move on.

    The best way is to start providing a service that is the one way that has kept me going since I can write articles on some very bad low paying sites but they are showing me that I can make money.

    All the best to you all and thanks for sharing.

    • Profile picture of the author andi_gt2005
      Feixia913, we're not using different ips and we never had any problems, but just to be clear, Google can track anything. For example, if you are advertising (it's not the case here) with Adwords, Big G can even see your computer's mac address. They have a special software for this.

      Kevin, good point.

      Boris, my brother in law didn't got lucky. If he would have just built one linkwheel than yes, you would be right, but he built tens of these money makers and they're all earning him money. Just because you haven't yet found a suitable keyword or managed to register a certain URL, it doesn't mean you can't succeed with this system. It's just that the keywords you used so far didn't met the "requirements", or it's allready to much competition etc.

      And I'd like to make a point here. WF is the greatest community of its kind and you can learn a lot in here, but you also have to think outside the box.

      If a keyword has more than 10.000 competing pages does this mean you can't go for that keyword? Absolutely NOT. It's just that you'll have to build "a few" more backlinks and it will take a little bit longer to reach those top positions. Ranking on the first page of Google is not luck, it's a lot of hard work.

      And if you want to go this way, the search engine optimization "way", you might want to consider buying a keyword research tool afterall. It will save you a lot of time and work.

      Sylviad, you're concerned about what would happen if 2.0 sites decide to put a halt to the link-building wheel method. Let me answer with a question: what if Google decides to shut down the Adwords program for example in the future? Will you not still use it till that day comes?

      Of course you would, as long as it makes you money. It's the same with these 2.0 properties, as long as this method works right now...just do it.

      About the life expectancy of all these Web 2.0 sites: I have a few Blogger blogs that I haven't touched them in more than 2 years and they're still ranking on the first page. It all depends on the specific keywords you use. Like I said, you have to think outside the box. If you notice you're not on the first page anymore for one of your keywords simply build some more backlinks.

      And I'd like to give you a piece of advice: you can not control everything before applying one method or another. Just do it and learn as you go, you can always improve the method later.

      About the duplicate content issue, as I said in my original post, I told my brother in law to write unique articles for each of the properties in the wheel. Good luck to you Sylvia.

      Vendetta, as I answered to someone else earlier, you can also go for keywords with more than 10.000 competing pages and thus it will be easier to find suitable keywords. It's just that you'll have to build more backlinks (do some social bookmarking, use more properties in the wheels etc) and it will take a little bit longer to get those coveted first spots.

      About the keyword research, I explained in my original post what kind of keywords work best (think Desire and Desperate Needs). The research itself is maybe the most important step of this system and I could write a book on this subject and it would still not be enough . My personal advice to you is to look for this kind of keywords: "product name" review (also discount, bonus, download), "product name" specific model, "how to" keywords.

      When looking at competition for your keywords put them in "". That is if you're not using a keyword research program. And Vendetta, that's a great outsourcind plan my friend .

      Mrgoldfinder, consider hiring someone to design your site.

      Bootiez, you've answered yourself: fairly competitive keywords and the result of poor KW research (and I might add: the Google dance). Think about it. A competitive keyword means you're fighting with a lot of hungry marketers for that first page. Go for the long tail keywords, they're easier to rank for and you'll rank a lot longer on the first page.

      My in laws articles stay for extended periods of time on the first page because of the link juice those 2.0 properties provide. You maintain rankings without having to keep backlinking non stop by choosing keywords with not that much competition.

      About scaling up and outsourcing this method: use a linkwheel buildind service. They'll write the articles, post them on the 2.0 properties, ping them, the works. I personally have my own team here at my office that does this kind of job.

      Gtrplyr, yes, I use the same web 2.0 property for multiple keywords, in multiple niches. If the keyword is more competitive I'll simply use more than 15 properties in the linkwheel.

      Sande, you are not alone either, you have at your disposal the biggest internet marketing community in the world. Someone gave here a link to a big list of 2.0 properties and you should check it out. It's the same with the definition of a niche/keyword/longtail keyword and how to use them on anchot texts in the blogs and sites: search their meaning on this forum and on Google, there's a ton of information on this subjects.

      Good luck to you guys.

        • Profile picture of the author sylviad
          Thanks Andi...

          I bet you hadn't counted on such a barrage of questions.

          Re the reference someone made to your in-law being "lucky", I think he was referring to the fact he had YOU as his expert guide (sitting right at his elbow) from the outset who went on to steer him throughout the process until he made money. He had you there to constantly offer input, make suggestions, aid in choosing Web 2.0 sites for the linking process, choosing products and keywords, steer him right when he went wrong, etc. etc.

          You are doing the next best thing here, which makes all your readers "lucky".

          The thing your readers need to realize first and foremost is that this whole strategy, like all others, requires that they choose a good product to promote. Many newbies probably have no idea how to go about doing that and end up choosing products that are:

          a) too competitive (have tons of affiliates promoting them)
          b) new and have not "proven" themselves in the market
          c) crappy products
          d) good or bad products with crappy sales pages that don't convert
          e) too expensive and require more rigorous promotion to meet sales goals
          f) not wanted - no one sees their value, if value even exists
          g) see lots of returns (bad product)
          h) not providing quality customer service
          i) appealing to THE NEWBIE rather than to a customer's wants
          j) do not address a person's "wants", even though they "need" it
          k) offered through sales pages that do not reassure the visitor (with contact info, About Us, privacy policy, refund guarantee)

          After that, it comes down to choosing the best keywords that are:

          a) most relevant to the product
          b) used by people "who are ready to buy", ie: include "buy" (product), "purchase" (product)
          c) long-tail - which makes them more specific keywords that serious people will use to find your product
          d) too general, ie: MP3 Player is too broad, but a specific model of MP3 will be much more relevant. Or "internet marketing" is impossible to compete for and is far too generic. "affiliate internet marketing strategy" would be much more specific.

          The third step in this process is approaching the marketing properly. Many newcomers and even seasoned marketers write articles that push the product, rather than offer quality advice that "sells" the person on the fact that they should "want" a product that provides even more solutions.

          This is referred to as, "... helpful but incomplete". You give the reader enough info to peak their interest, give them something they can use right away, but that leaves them with unanswered questions that can be found in the product the marketer is promoting.

          Look up articles by Joe Vitale - he is one of the masters at "helpful but incomplete". Study how he does it.

          The final aspect of "helpful but incomplete": In error, many marketers pitch their site visitors on the product, rather than Pre-Selling them. You leave the "sales" to the affiliate site. As an affiliate, you simply want to give them insight into your experience with the product, or how it helped someone you know... or it can be simply a review or a comparison of similar products that you rate. This last one actually can multiply your chances of making a sale because you become an affiliate of all products you compare on your site, so whichever one they choose, you make money.

          Remember that your visitors don't want to be pitched to twice. If you pitch them and then they get a sales page pitching to them, they will not be happy.

          It takes practice to get all of these steps right.

          I hope this has helped many of your readers to get a better grasp of the insides of this process - the stages that must be achieved before link wheel building begins and the results you suggest can be achieved.

        Also, I had a second Blogger blog I set up around the same time and never used. No posts, nothing. If you go to the URL, it's a white page. Literally. Nothing is there! But, it's still around.

        Which is nice, because it's a decent URL.

        At any rate, the various sites have different rules. Some will delete your account after 6-12 months of inactivity. Others have their own policies, of course. What might be a good idea is just to make sure you log into your Web 2.0 properties at least once every six months. That'll likely (for most of them) keep the account active even if you're not regularly updating the site.

          Good example, Dan. Thank you. I actually have a few Squidoo lenses that are still there and getting no attention now for over a year. However, it looks like some of my Wordpress free blogs have disappeared.

          I can't express this enough for people reading this thread.

          DO NOT link to affiliate products from a free Wordpress blog or it will be deleted and the URL become useless. I had a fantastic one going for fitness products, lots of great reviews, a few articles - but I linked them directly to the affiliate sales pages instead of my own site. Bad idea. It seems you can get away with it if you place the blog on your own host, though.

      The best way is to start providing a service that is the one way that has kept me going since I can write articles on some very bad low paying sites but they are showing me that I can make money.

      All the best to you all and thanks for sharing.

    Hi, Andi, Thanks so much for the informative, inspirational post. I know that a lot of people are posing some questions for clarification, but the message that I am coming away with is this: Find a method and push through it. Don't do a couple of web 2.0 sites; do a bunch of them. Don't do a little bit of research; do it thoroughly. Be all over your niche like white on rice.

    Thanks again for the post.

    You said you used only free keyword tools? What are the best free sites for researching keywords?

    Keyword research at google adwords?

    Doing a quick google search, I see some free, some not free... With results like this, I don't think anyone would need to pay for this research service? Thanks for the post! Good stuff.

      Kathleen, I'm glad you understood the essence of my post .

      Philly, someone already posted a link to a big list of 2.0 properties with their corresponding PR. Each of the linkwheels properties will have a link pointing to the next property and a link pointing to YOUR affiliate money site. So yes, you do have to build your own site or pay someone to have it done.

      MillionaireMonkey, the free keyword tool my in law used is the adwords keyword tool. Doing keyword research manually takes a long time, so I suggest to buy as soon as posible a software that does it for you, like MS.

    I hate to keep harping on this web 2.0 stuff but I'm hearing conflicting info.

    If I am going to create a web 2.0 site for my linkwheel, lets say for example a Squidoo site. I'm going to try to use my keyword in the URL of that site, right? So, then, if I am to use the same site in a linkwheel for a different niche, I just add an article to it with the new keyword? It seems like whichever keyword gets in the URL of the site benefits more than any others.

    Basically, I would be creating a total of 15 sites for a linkwheel and using that same linkwheel for all my niches?

      If the web 2.0 site does not allow you to create a new site/blog WITH the keyword in the url you then MUST create a new account on that site focusing on the keyword.

      after reading this post I have to say your brother in law is a very lucky man. You got him by hand and couched what and how to do. Thanks for sharing that. I know 6,000/mo is very doable with this method.
      And for people that want more details about link wheels, just google it on images and you will see the light!

      We only learn IM doing it. Just like driving cars or bikes.
      Good luck!

      ah-HA! See? You didn't say that before. I thought we were just linking everything back to our own main site and from there, linking to the affiliate sales page. (Some of us just need those intimate details - can't think for ourselves. )

      Another point that might be worth mentioning for your readers is that the landing page on their own site should offer something for download in exchange for their contact info, so people can build their list while they are doing this. Otherwise, all the work can be in vain if no one follows the link to the affiliate sales page.

      You will need a new URL for each keyword - so if you have a Squidoo Lens for keyword: MP3 Player, it won't make sense to have another article on there for: golf tips. You'd need to start 2 different accounts so you can give each niche-specific Lens its own keyword-enhanced URL.

      Once you find the best Web 2.0 properties for your link wheel, just keep using that generic link wheel for all your niches.

      What I've done is created a link wheel template in Word, with boxes encircling my main site. In those boxes are different Web 2.0 properties I'll be targeting. I'll use it for one product, one set of 5 keywords and then if any Web 2.0 properties don't work out, I can replace them on my link wheel template.

      Yes, I know. I tend to introduce more work into a project than is necessary, but I work much better with graphic representation than lists, so this will work great for me.

      If anyone wants a copy of my blank link wheel template in Word, just let me know. You can PM me with your email address so I can send it along. All you'll have to do is enter the Web 2.0 properties you plan to use.

        Andy,

        I would like to say thankyou for providing a great post to the warrior forum community. It's going into my article vault for reference. However, as you can see posts like these get many people in a tizzy because their starving for more information that's probably already out there.

        For example , from just reading the first page of replies I'm seeing people write stuff like this:

        What kink of linkwheel are you using?
        Are you outsourcing the articles or writing them yourself
        Can this be duplicated?
        What niches is your brother in law writing articles on
        How long did it take?
        These methods take too long, and your brother must be lucky.
        Can you provide an exact step by step how your brother in law made 6k
        Was that 6K total profit?
        Did he point his Web 2.O properties to his money site or page?
        How many keywords did he research, and can you tell me the exact keywords he ranked for....lol


        I said all that to say this: Be like Nike and "Just Do It"... in fact forget the slogan just do something! We need to stop over analyzing everything, and get our feet wet. Andy's system is nothing new; he didn't try to reinvent the wheel for his brother in law. You could find 100 posts in this Forum telling you the same thing he just posted.

        In fact, many people are probably making money following the same system that Andy described...You see I didn't say exact system because every system is different in someway. And that is where the problem lies because most people want a step by step process how to make money online.

        However, the reality is even if Andy did provide a proven and exact step by step process(and he did a great job of that already) to make money online would you actually go out and do it?

        The answer for most is probably not because something else would stop you from following the process. You would probably stop at the point where actual hardwork or little extra money would be needed to accomplish the task... So to combat that we overanalyze the situation looking for more detailed steps, get dejected, and move on the next wonder product.

        That's why 95% of people in this business fail, because we let hard work and fear (fear of losing money, or time) get in the way of our success. I can say this whole-heartedly because for many years I was in the same boat as many of you are now replying to this post.

        So print this post, follow the process step by step(no shortcuts) and see what happens.

        Thanks,

        Paul

      Dan C., thanks for your post, it's important for everyone to understand that with a little bit of initial work you can optimize a site or 2.0 property that will stay ranked in the top positions for your targeted keyword even for years, bringing in a nice autopilot income.

      Lostarts, that's the most dangerous thing for a newbie: information overload. I receive a lot of emails from my clients telling me how they simply don't know what system, what idea, what business model to start with. I'm always telling them to just pick one that's proven to work, read all they can get on the subject and then just get to work. If you follow this "process" and as soon as "some" work is needed to get things going you're like: "that's to hard for me, I'll just move on to the next shiny thing....", you all get my point.

      I think every newbie should write down on a piece of paper something like: "I will NOT give up until I'll make this work. My future depends on it and I refuse to give up." Keep that paper next to your computer and every time you're feeling down read it, think about how life will be when you'll be earning that specific amount of cash everyone of us needs to live a comfortable life.

      Philly, the idea is to build a linkwheel around your site in order to raise its position on Google.

      Gtrplyr, no, you're not going to use the same linkwheel for all your niches. You'll create one linkwheel for each and every targeted keyword, no matter what niche you choose to promote. And you MUST have the targeted keyword in the url of every 2.0 property for seo reasons.

      Jacko, millionebook, thanks for the kind words.

      Sylvia, Thom McCarroll posted an image of a small linkwheel so I hope you now understand the concept of interlinking the 2.0 porperties of a linkwheel. Regarding the "building their list" part, there are niches were you can do that and niches were you can't. It's hard for example to sell something else to a person that bought a "cure your hemorrhoids" product. But of course in the im niche a list is a must.

      Another thing to consider when building linkwheels is to try changing their position as often as possible. You don't want Google to notice a pattern.

      Ptwain, thanks for your post and I completely agree with you. So people, stop procrastinating and get to work, this method simply works. It works for me, it works for my brother in law and it works for thoundands of people worldwide.

      KateD, thank you also for your post. These keywords do exist, I'm finding them each and every day and they produce me and my in law a lot of money. And just to be clear: you do not necessarily have to work with just this type of keywords (that have at most 10.000 competing pages). You can also work with more competitive keywords, you'll just have to work harder to optimize them. And yes, $6.000 / Month it's not luck, it's hard work.

      Sylvia, if that "12,100 searches a month (400+ a day) and only 19,600 competing sites" keyword has "selling" potential, what are you expectig ? Go for it.

      Everyone, these golden keywords do exist...you just have to work at finding them.

      Bryan K, it's my pleasure helping out this great community. Regarding your question, when it comes to "how to get a boyfriend" (which is a completely distinct keyword from the first one) you will need to make a new blogspot blog. For each and every one of your targeted keywords (it doesn't matter if it's 5 or 500 keywords) you will make distinct linkwheels. And it's always better to go for very specific niches that have a lot less competition than generic terms.

      The 13th Warrior, I'll think about it .

      Eric w, you can apply this system to anything that converts: clickbank products, cpa offers, amazon products etc. Just be sure to pick keywords that meet the criterias I described in my origial post.

      Chuck Underwood, sith005, thanks guys.

      Boris_yo, the traffic is coming mainly from Google and some of it (a very small percentage) from Yahoo and Bing.

      Philly, again, you have to have your own site for this method to work. The whole concept of a linkwheel revolves around having a money site in the middle of the wheel. If you just want to send the visitors straight to the promoted site you can use EzineArticles. Just be sure to have your own domain name when doing the redirection.

      Truehs, a WSO on "how you built up that list", I'll take that into consideration also .

      Good luck guys!

        Wish You success as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

        May I ask You this?
        some people say that when keywords are found, a person has to conduct a real test of traffic - to test it with Adwords & see how traffic react at your ads - at least 7 days
        ANDI_GT2005! what do I have to think of this advice?
        - do I really have to run real Adwords test before final choice of keywords?
        ps: probably the colum "commerciality" in Market Samurai can give us enough hint in order not to run adwords test?
        thanks a lot!

        and one more
        Do I have to create a new! account each & every time I create a different linkwheel
        or it's Ok to have just one account at each free 2.0 property?

        thank You again!

          Costos gohdohb, you don't need to run a real Adwords test before choosing the final targeted keywords. As you well said it's enough to use the "commerciality" colum in Market Samurai. And yes, you will open a new account (on all of the 2.0 properties used) for each of the linkwheels you'll be building.

          Best regards,
          Andy.

        This is exactly what I've been looking for... a method of promotion that doesn't require constant attention. I was told that everything must be worked on because nothing gives you that sort of permanent backlinking. Well, it sounds like you just proved them wrong.

        Lostarts...If you follow this "process" and as soon as "some" work is needed to get things going you're like: "that's to hard for me, I'll just move on to the next shiny thing....", you all get my point.

        While that is true for many, it is not the only reason. I'm an extremely hard worker and I know the niches I want to work in, but I begin doubting the promotional strategy I'm doing and that causes me to stop before I actually do enough to bring any kind of significant results. Whatever I'm doing suddenly seems pointless as my mind works on the ins and outs of the strategy, and I begin to see holes in the concept. That's when I spot another approach that seems more promising. But inevitably, it too will seem like a waste of time. Sometimes, thinking can be a bad thing.

        Gtrplyr, no, you're not going to use the same linkwheel for all your niches. You'll create one linkwheel for each and every targeted keyword, no matter what niche you choose to promote. And you MUST have the targeted keyword in the url of every 2.0 property for seo reasons...
        Another thing to consider when building linkwheels is to try changing their position as often as possible. You don't want Google to notice a pattern.
        Ok. I got this wrong, but I think I see your point. You switch things up a bit so you aren't constantly posting to the same Web 2.0 properties. Other than that, since the 2.0 properties do not have to be relevant to your niche, it doesn't seem to make any difference except where Google is concerned.
        Sylvia, Thom McCarroll posted an image of a small linkwheel so I hope you now understand the concept of interlinking the 2.0 porperties of a linkwheel. Regarding the "building their list" part, there are niches were you can do that and niches were you can't. It's hard for example to sell something else to a person that bought a "cure your hemorrhoids" product. But of course in the im niche a list is a must.
        Yes, I created my own link wheel in Word that can be modified with new Web 2.0 properties for each niche - then I saw the graphic, but I like mine better.

        I suppose that's true, obviously it depends on the type of product. But some people actually do have recurring hemorrhoids so you might offer them a series of articles on the subject, plus a $7 report on why they can persist and what you can do to prevent them.

        Sylvia, if that "12,100 searches a month (400+ a day) and only 19,600 competing sites" keyword has "selling" potential, what are you expectig ? Go for it.
        OF COURSE I went for it. Are you kidding? I've already written 5 articles and a small giveaway report in prep for doing the Web 2.0 submissions.

        Boris_yo, the traffic is coming mainly from Google and some of it (a very small percentage) from Yahoo and Bing.
        This is good to know. Whenever I've submitted my blog posts to the different bookmarking sites, I noticed that only a few actually brought traffic, so now I focus on those first if my time is limited. In this case, however, it would seem that the linkwheel process is forcing traffic directly through Google rather than the individual Web 2.0 properties.

        You seem very persistent that we should create a new site for each keyword and I wonder, why not just a new keyword-titled page on your main site for that niche? I do this all the time as it gives visitors much more content to view. Plus, I understood that Google prefers sites that offer a lot of quality content, rather than just one-page sites. So having a 10-page niche site with each page named after one of your keywords should please Google AND your visitors.

        Or am I missing something?

          Great post Andi, thanks for sharing.

          However, I do have a quick question...

          As I understand it, the 15 pages on the web 2.0 properties are supposed to be "unique" and yet they also are going to be for the same keyword. Is it okay to use pages that are essentially quick rewrites of the same content?

          I might be able to create 3 or 4 unique articles around a single keyword but at a certain point I'm bound to start repeating myself and just saying the same thing in different ways. Would it hurt the linkwheel if the content on each page is similar (though not identical)?

    The only think im unsure at the moment is, should i start with a keyword projekt with 6600 searchs per month and 4170 competitors because of the less competition or with 200000 searches per month and 19000 competitors?
    For both i've fitting products but i don't know if it is to frustrating to fight against 19000 competitors in the first project...

    My opinion is: Go with the first, you will see results faster, with less work(not that you should work any easier).

    But the numbers for both keywords are VERY NICE so grats on the find and get to work now on them!

    Grats on switching from database programing also that stuff seems to be never ending and a constant bore fest at least for me... I got a friend whos an 18 y.o and is pretty high up in his company doing that crap and it seems like NO FUN.

      I just wanted to let everybody know that today my brother in law announced me that after implementing a few more "steps" from the "to do" list I gave him 3 weeks ago, he's commissions for the moth of november were close to $7.500 !

      So to answer some of you guys, YES - this method is definitely scalable and you can only earn more if you're willing to put in the work.

      We also agreed I'll be monitoring his activity more closely for the month of december in order to help him reach the $10.000 level by January 1, 2010.

      Of course I'll keep everyone updated with his progress and if you guys have questions...don't be shy .

      Good luck to you all and remember...good things happen to those who WORK !!!

        About Keyword research, I have a important message for you guy's which is absolutely crucial here.

        GOOGLE IS LYING TO YOU ! WHAT ? Yes, and I proof it with a video (sorry, sound is bad but all I have is camstudio and a cheap mic).



        This means, ALWAYS check the results you get in quotes. Scroll down to the page numbers and go till the last one, click all the way through till Google won't show any more results.

        THAT is you real competition.

      How much value do we give the keyword being our 2.0 url? Meaning for example that if 'LowCompKeyword' is our keyword and it isn't available in ...say Blogger.com, could we then try 'MYLowCompKeyword' or 'TheLowCompKeyword' and get the same value?

      Also I think earlier someone mentioned the tedious part of typing in all the keywords into the Google search field. There are several Google Accelerator plug ins for both IE and Firefox that will allow you to highlight a word (like a keyword from the Keyword Tool list) and then right click that word so that a menu pops up. From that menu you can do several things including search that highlighted word in Google. This saves the trouble of typing it in yourself. It's a small thing but when you're searching hundreds of keywords it's important to get a rhythm going.

      TSc, those results are strange indeed, you should check them for a few days in a row and see what's going on.

      Sylvia, you could use the same site for promoting several products in the same niche, but you wouldn't be able to fully optimize that particular page belonging to a certain product. First of all you wouldn't have the targeted keyword as the domain itself. And I didn't said you should build just a one page website. The money site can have several pages filled with articles and maybe some embedded youtube videos to help the seo process.

      Tj_inreality, it's okay to use pages that are essentially quick rewrites of the same content, you know...change a few paragraphs, although the best situation would be to have unique articles.

      Trilogy09, Paul Walker, good points guys. Sligon00, thanks.

      Djsted, the examples you gave are the next best alternative regarding the properties urls.

      Mebechenheyan, once you he hit that 10,000 mark you will not have to keep working hard to sustain that income, it's all pretty much autopilot income. But you should check from time to time if you have new competitors and build some more backlinks if you notice someone else "trespassing your territory" .

      Kennyhsbc1988, Denzi56, all the information you need is right here on this great forum, you just need to get to work.

      Good luck guys.

    Whatever you set the goal to, its actually possible. As many already have said: Just do it. I remember when I first started a few years ago. I was browsing different pages and checking my domains over and over again - because I never knew WHERE TO START. But then I just: Just don't start and see how it goes?

    So I was giving all for a project. Did a launch and get paid. Did a 2nd version, got paid. Just kept collecting emails, making new offers when it was some Special Days (Christmas, Halloween etc) and just sended them all about my new offer. At the end, I just sold the project and got paid for that too.


    There is So many things you can Do, you just need to be creative. I got so many ideas that I want to do myself, and will do them all one by one. Just do it. Start just adding them up in the "QuestList" and start working mate.

    Hi Andi

    I have a few questions about the method your brother in law used

    I understand the link wheel concept but if i use say 12 2.0 properties, linking them to the money site and also each other, all 12 must contain the money sites keywork in the url, correct?

    When i link them to the money site and each other, do i use the keywork in anchor txt to link them?

    Must the content i put on each site be unique? even though i am using the same keyword on each site and writing about the same thing, i must rewrite all 12 articles for unique content, correct?

    If i have another 5 keywords for the same product im selling or promoting, i understand i must repeat the same process using the same 2.0 properties with the next keyword within the url and the articles, but what about the money site? Do i need to create a new site with the new keyword within the url or do i use the same money site web address but just make a new page with the keyword on the end of the original url and simply link to that?

    Phew

    Great post by the way

    Andi, would you be able to give us an example of the page one of your web 2.0 properties links your readers to when they go to the money site? Does it look like a Landing page or is it an article with a link to the product you have been prepping them to buy the entire time at the end?

    I am STILL commited to this strategy. It's been over a week and I haven't changed my mind amazing I know. You staying active in this thread and answering everyones questions has been all the mentoring I have needed. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

      To answer your final question, you can use a single site for promoting several products from the same niche, but you will not be able to have the keyword as the domain name itself.

      And it's a great post only if people use the information I provided.

      Franco Mocke, after you set up a certain method and it's working smoothly, the next step is to ofcourse outsource as much of the work as possible. As entrepreneurs it is our job to set up systems, make them work and then have others do the actual work in order for us to be able to put togheter the next project.

      Vendetta, I'll problably do a WSO on this method and you'll find there all the details regarding this method. But to answer your question, you'll be putting articles on these 2.0 properties.

      Guys, this method works, you just have to work on it.

        Noodle2005, being in a hurry it seems I didn't copied all the answers I wrote to you in my notepad to the post itself, so here they are.

        All properties must contain the targeted keyword into the url of the money site for seo purposes.

        When you link them to the money site and to each other, you must use the keyword as the anchor text.

        The best situation is to have unique content on each property, but you should at least spin the content.

        Hope this helps,
        Andy.

    Thank you for all your advise.

    What does "in the URL" mean?

    1. Only in the first line like www.keyword.com?

    2. Work this too if it is in the subdomain like keyword.yourdomain.com?

    3. Or workt this too if it is in the page name like www.yourdomain.com/keyword.html?

    And - as nice info - i love niche / keyword research!
    Its just a funy game. Found another interesting side with 22.000 searchs a month, 120.000 competitors, first three competitors with a backlink count between 8 and 103 and partner programms with a combined cash per click, cash per lead and cash per sale.
    That would be the next project after promoting the first niche i've told about. (Remember the "stay focused" thing. )

    Hi andi,

    i have question please, i can't afforde having my own website right now and even if i do i think it's just so expensive since i wana work in a very big volume,

    so my question is what are the best web 2.0 sites to make as a focus hub ? blogger is good right ? since it's a google propretie it should get a good rank in the search results,

    Thanks

    • Profile picture of the author andi_gt2005
      TSc, "in the URL" means that you have to register a domain name which contains the targeted keyword itself for seo purposes. If you choose to promote several products in the same niche using the same site you must use a subdomain for each page and that page will also be the targeted keyword itself.

      Hamza El Bouni, if you want to use a free property as the money site go either with wordpress, either with blogger.

      Franco Mocke, I forgot to mention this in my last post: my favorite CPA company is NeverBlue.

      Andi,
      Thank you so much for this inspiring post and all the details you keep coming back to elaborate. I love the Warriors! They are the best people online.

      I've done the research to find link wheel services for outsourcing as well as have a couple of niches ready to start.

      Next report will be about the money!

      The first niche I will do myself because I know that doing the work will educate me like no other thing can. Then, I've got several companies lined up to outsource to. I want to test each company and find the one I can rely on. If this works right, I can make enough to pay for the outsourcing and then some.

      The next step is to scale it up. I'm so excited about 2010 coming up. There will be a full 12 months in a new year to test the results.

      Again, Andi, thank you from the bottom of my heart!!

      Patricia

    Hello Andi, - great thread and thank you for all of your input. It is a timely thread for me because I just bought Niche Horde and the software shows exactly how many searches are done for a keyword/phrase and also the competing websites.

    I found a keyword based on your criteria and built a link wheel using 15 web 2.0 sites and almost saw instant results. The Web 2.0 sites really get a brand new site search engine listed quite quickly and often lands on page 1.

    Keep going with the thread, I love the nuggets your throwing at us and the great questions other Warriors are asking.

      Just one minor addition to your list... Focus on the RIGHT things. It's too easy to get absorbed in creating products and web sites that you don't get around to doing the work that actually makes money - traffic generation. I should know. I'm forever trying to perfect everything but my marketing.

      If you build a site with your keyword as your site domain name, that should be enough to let Google know the topic of your site. You wouldn't fill your entire site targeting that one keyword. Or would you?

      I figure, each article / keyword targeted - gets its own page under your main URL which references the same niche. Separate pages can be created for actual product promotion, ie: a review of product 1 on its own page, product 2 on its own page, and so forth or one page comparing 3 different products in that niche.

      Plus, each keyword-targeted article page can link to one of those product sales pages (affiliate page AND to the review or product comparison page on you site). In my experience, visitors find their way to the other products and end up buying something. Seems to me this gives you an even better chance of selling something... if the person doesn't like the one product you're promoting.

      Of course, you're making a hell of a lot more money than I ever have, so I could be completely wrong.

    Andi I didn't mean what does your web 2.0 page look like, I know what that is, an article. I should hope so because I have paid for 500 articles to be made after reading this forum(no joke)

    What I am trying to find out is what should my MAIN page for a keyword look like? Should it simply be an article with an rss feed and a video on it? OR should there be more? Should I make the article on this page VERY LONG? Should I prep them heavily for the article they are about to purchase? I want to know what your brother in law is doing to his main sites specifically a quick simple list of seo done will suffice.

    This is the only part that remains that I am at all unsure about everything else you have helped me with substantially. Much appreciated.

      Me too. Building the sales page is the greatest challenge for me.
      I avoid the mega long blabla sides, because i know that I have never read some of those until the end, what means ive never read it until the affiliate link.

      But whats about text design, color psychologie, text breakdown, triggers and so on...

      Some tips or links from an expert whould be great here.


      And Andi - Did i say thank you for this thread today?

    interesting post Andy ! i am quite into what you are talking about, but no significant revenue yet, because it's not easy to find those keywords with min. 50 searches per day and less than 10'000 competitors pages. I am using KeywordElite to ease the research... Why isn't there a keyword tool that search and find automatically all those keywords using google's free database and search engine. I mean you have the database of the keywords that people are actually typing in and the search engine to tell how many pages are there for a keyword match....

    Do you have or sell the process and provide step-by-step support ? i am sure many people are willing to pay (including myself) to save time and money.

    Because "just do it" isn't enough, but "just do the right thing" is better... i bought a few im products, but i always had the impression that they never tell you all the thing, just a piece of the puzzle.

      Great information and thank you very much for taking the time to share! I'm sure your swamped...lol..

      Questions:
      1. What type of sites are your money sites? ie.. Review style? Personal Story Style? Which one works the best for you?
      2. If I choose this keyword. BESTDOGTOY.... This kw must be in the url of the money site and all web 2.0 urls as well?
      3. You stated that you normally use 5-6 kws per product you promote. Are all 5-6 kws have 50 searches a day and only 10k competition or are you just using LSI KEYWORDS for the other 5-6 kws?
      4. How do you change the position of your linkwheel in time? and when should you consider changing it so google doesn't catch on?
      5. For your money site. Is it ok to have just your main article, about, privacy, contact info and that is it? Or should we have more?
      Thank you in advance for your time!! Oh and good luck to your brother in law.. Very motivating =)

    Hi some great info in this thread and I have learned quite a bit so I would like to offer some advice as it appears there are some people who would greatly like to replicate the success of the OP's brother law.

    Too many people are getting too wound up in the details with regards to the the keyword research data. I have had many sites rank no 1 on G with huge amounts of competing pages but I dont have an exact SEO plan because each and every site will behave differently depending on the niche and what G is up to at the time. The OP gave you some figures but just take them as a guide. He said 10,000 competing pages in quotes but if your comp is 250,000 in quotes and the top 3 spots are weak then you may easily out rank them. What works for one person may not work for another as there too many variables.

    Ok I have got some valuable info from the WF and made money with threads like this and told others how to do the same and this is exactly what I would do with this thread

    The best thing to do as somebody else mentioned is to just roll with it. Take the info given here and and write the best plan of action you can come up with. This thread could go on forever with people asking the same questions but there is more than enough info here at the moment even for newbies.

    Give your self one week of learning the different skills mentioned for example the link wheel, dont get distracted by the next hot trick dig and dig for the info until you become an expert. If you have to, go to the WSO section and see if there is anything there that will help. The WSO section is great when you know exactly what your looking for.

    Ok after a week you should have new sets of skills and a firm action plan, now you impliment it. Once again its important that you dont get distracted stay focused.

    Check back to this thread every couple of days to see if there is any fresh info that can help.

    Find people that are doing the same as you and hook with them on skype or whatever. Work together share ideas. Yes I have done this and it works very well.

    If you get stuck there some very helpful people here that will go above and beyond.

    Ok thats it. Remember dont over analyze the details because you wont benefit from this at all.

    Take care

    Just out of a curious mind for keyword research did you use softwere such as market samuri or micro neice finder,

    also for all the people asking about web 2.0 i have a few here you can try,

    weebly.com
    propellor.com
    digg.com
    onlywire.com
    wetpaint.com
    blogger.com
    blinkweb.com

    reddit.com
    misterwong.com
    spinning.com
    hubpages.com
    squiddo.com
    (no affilate links allowed at squiddo)
    also im going to mention something here which andy never mentioned which is something i learnt from terry kyle regarding the
    google ranking if you want to get indexed and traffic quickly then make sure all your links on your web2.0 linkwheel is turned from html url to rss using sites such as feedage.com for some reason google loves rss and you can have quite a few sites which in turn point to your money site show up on google bookmarks and directorys,

    all the best

    Also squidoo (squiddoo, however you spell it) became more restrictive sometime back as it became used by more and more internet marketers, so you have to be careful how you use it. Some niches are completely banned. You can see which ones are banned on their website. They have all the info.

      Hi guys, I've announced this also on my original post, but I want to be shure everyone sees it.

      So here we go:

      "Guys, guys, slow down a little bit , since posting this thread almost 3 weeks ago I have literally received over 100 private pm's with different questions and almost all of them asking me to make a WSO out of everything posted.

      I originally didn't intended to sell this information as a product, I just wanted to help out as much warriors as I could.

      But I see things are getting very serious and lots of you are even asking me to offer some kind of private coaching program.

      So, even though my time is really, really, really limited and I'll have to work literally day and night to finish this WSO on time, I decided to get to work and put toghether a very detailed, step by step blueprint of the exact system I taught my brother in law that got him to $6.000 per month within 40 days.

      Today I'll begin working on the WSO and if it all goes OK I shall release it on Thursday, 17th December 2009 (if I'll finish it sooner I'll announce the exact date on the thread).

      I realize now that if I don't gather all this information in one single course people will never have the complete step by step system my in law used.

      With over 160 replies already and without any signs of them stopping anytime soon, a lot of you guys will only have more and more questions.

      So this is the best way I can think off to have YOU making money in the shortest period of time.

      I dare to say that some of you will be making money with this system by the end of the month.

      I will also be offering 5 review copies to respected warriors and I expect them to put my system to the test immediately. I don't want to waste anybody's time (nor mine) so I'll make this a "go here - do this, go there - do that" complete blueprint.

      I want to assure you all that absolutely, and I mean absolutely all of the questions asked will have a very detailed response in the course itself and I'll try to make it one of the best WSO's ever put toghether.

      That being said, I'll update this thread on a daily basis regarding the progress of my work and I hope to see a lot of you on the other side of the barricade.

      Best regards,
      Andy."

        So here we go:

        "Guys, guys, slow down a little bit , since posting this thread almost 3 weeks ago I have literally received over 100 private pm's with different questions and almost all of them asking me to make a WSO out of everything posted.

        I originally didn't intended to sell this information as a product, I just wanted to help out as much warriors as I could.

        But I see things are getting very serious and lots of you are even asking me to offer some kind of private coaching program.

        So, even though my time is really, really, really limited and I'll have to work literally day and night to finish this WSO on time, I decided to get to work and put toghether a very detailed, step by step blueprint of the exact system I taught my brother in law that got him to $6.000 per month within 40 days.

        Today I'll begin working on the WSO and if it all goes OK I shall release it on Thursday, 17th December 2009 (if I'll finish it sooner I'll announce the exact date on the thread).

        I realize now that if I don't gather all this information in one single course people will never have the complete step by step system my in law used.

        With over 160 replies already and without any signs of them stopping anytime soon, a lot of you guys will only have more and more questions.

        So this is the best way I can think off to have YOU making money in the shortest period of time.

        I dare to say that some of you will be making money with this system by the end of the month.

        I will also be offering 5 review copies to respected warriors and I expect them to put my system to the test immediately. I don't want to waste anybody's time (nor mine) so I'll make this a "go here - do this, go there - do that" complete blueprint.

        Andy,

        Thats great news. Im drawing up a blueprint from this thread to get somebody working on it right away so I'll look forward to it.

        Also I think your WSO would be great if you included a live case study. Just a suggestion.

        Many thanks

          Thanks Dave for your suggestion.

          Just wanted to let everybody now I've started working on the blueprint and I'd like to ask everyone to post their unanswered questions here.

          Like I said, I want this to be one of the best WSO's ever released and it's only fair to get you guys involved.

          Warm regards,
          Andy.

    I'm sorry, but I really need to know how much articles that link wheel web has? Since most service WF offer is just one article per web 2.0 while for some reason I think we need at least 3 articles.

    If 1 link wheel got 10 web 2.0 and each got 3 unique articles and we resource it, that means we need at about 30 unique articles. That could cost a lot if we outsource it...

    Usually how may articles a web 2.0 got?

      Sylviad, there are a few different money sites models we can use and I'll explain everythig in the WSO.

      Sugicloud, usually we'll have 1 article per property, but if the keyword is a little bit more competitive we can use several articles. I'll expain in more detail the different situations we can encounter inside the WSO.

      Xbokcom, nicely said.

    Hell on each of your main sites you could make a link to each other main site so if you got 30 key words. Thats 30 main sites. You could then make 29 sub domains on each main site with the key word title on your main site. That would then expand all of your main sites content ALOT and undoubtably raise your rank for all key words in the search engine with 29 in bound links PER site. You save alot of time not having to make 2.0 accounts this way also...
    This method should be used WITH web 2.0 apps not by itself imo... I just thought of this any comments?

    Call it a main site link wheel lol...

      Hamza El Bouni, the level of income you'll be able to generate out of the keywords you gave as an example will vary depending on how high you'll rank your properties. It's all about the number of visitors you'll receive and of course the products themselves have to be of high quality in order to convert.

      Regarding those 6 niches it's not just about the number of monthly searches and competitive pages. You also have to take into consideration what kind of websites are ranked on the first 3 to 5 positions on Google for your targeted keywords.

      For example from the first niche I would obviously choose the third keyword, BUT if the first 3-5 sites currently ranked on Google for that certain keyword are authoritative sites or they have each thousands of backlinks I'll pass on it.

      Anyway, I'll be explaining how I choose the perfect keywords for building linkwheels around them in great detail inside the WSO.

      Best regards,
      Andy.
