Seeking advice with $6000

If you can somehow come up with a product that people are in need of to put on clickbank then you would could possibly make a lot of money back but again you have to do your research. Properly invested that amount is good enough to make some serious money.

To save money in game/app dev, why don't you start with reskinning. The cost isn't as close to what it would be to dev an app from scratch. The idea is to get your feet wet not just with making an app...but the whole process. Dev, Marketing, Monetization, etc.

I'm starting a reselling gig to fund my app dev. Whatever you decide, good luck to ya!

interesting concept. Now with reskinning do you mean taking apart an already built app? and improving it or something? then marketing it?

im sorry im not familiar with that phrase but i wouldnt mind hearing more about it.

Now this clickbank thing im not too knowledgeable on. I dont know if i want to sell clickbank items. Almost would rather prefer selling my own items if that was the case. Higher profit margins i would assume? lol

Whatever you do, don't buy any services from the BHW vultures that will be pming you once they see you have 6k to invest. Study hard and when you have found enough different avenues that you can take your money, then you will know which will be the smartest decision for YOU personally. Don't jump into something if you can't atleast partially enjoy it

yeah i have received a few pms and skype messages that definitely sounded like scams. I want to take the time to look at different areas of interest and reading/hearing stories of success from others, or at least an area that they had started or had success in bring me interest but that does not mean i will hop on that bandwagon. When i make an investment, i want to feel confident that the ROI is decent and profitable. So i will take my time thanks

You're not really taking apart but you are (could be) improving on it. Google "reskin apps"

Offline SEO is definitely where bigger money can be made sooner with a talent for talking people into services. That's where loving what you do has to come in, people get fed up when I get talking about something because I'm just that passionate haha. People sense it.

Just because you have 6k capital doesn't mean it needs to cost 6k.
Think about what you enjoy doing, then take a look at what is needed in your community. Invest in that idea and let it grow. You could open a restaurant and use blackhat tools to boost it if you want something outside of marketing.

As for Online, look into opening an authority site, or reselling services. I've learned if you can't do it for free or with $50, how can you do it with $6000?

Buy some SEO tools for seach engine optimizing. Then get a team and make some authority sites!
If you don't want to work with seo, go and buy few sites that make good monthly income. Simple.

You can "play" with FOREX either

If you have 6k on hand to invest think about what you like and also what would be LONG term
You want something with recurring income no matter what the method is.

Example setup a nice site with a product you like and list it on clickbank for others to promote.
Dont have a product in mind? look at the highest converters on there and pay someone to rip and rewrite this is blackhat afterall.

I done dating for years there is plenty of money in that but takes money to make Real money.
Want something offline and online? build a one of a kind Stripper site that ties into the clubs - something i am working on

In the end you can make 6k work for you are you can invest it half thoughtfully and end up with peanuts.

You might want to consider porn...fairly easy to get a site going as well. But like everyone else is saying you need to be able to get traffic.

I dont necessarily agree with the churn and burn strategy a lot of people use. Build up sites rankings with black hat SEO then when they tank launch a new one. If you are going to invest money in a quality site you are going to want to be in it for the long haul.

Although ranking using white/grey hat may take longer it will be worth it if you are in it for the long haul.

And there are a ton of other traffic sources besides search engines.

The best way the learn is still to lose money researching/testing. You will quickly learn what works and what doesn't work. This is the approach I did I started with about half of the amount you have.

yes but porn is a high competition niche. i mean i could pump in a ton of seo along with a nice free tube site but the question is can i create sustainable income where an area of blackhat is so high...lots of ddos attacks, lots of negative seo to belittle other adult websites?

$6,000 is a huge money.

Forget about porn and blackhat techniques.

Build passive income, you may not realize it, but it really is a HUGE money as a start-up cash, it'll save you the trouble we've all been in. But don't do anything until you do proper research.

You can turn it a $5000-10000/month income soon if you work hard.

Best of luck.

You aren't going to make your initial investment back right away. Games require massive budgets be it broadway style announcements in magazines and youtube ads and paid cpa advertising, or blackhat with bought views, bought community spam, etc. The only difference is whether you already have a community behind the game projects or not. So by what you told us you don't have one, and this will in return lead to a kickstarter fail.

As for investing 6k, I would really think about what I wanted to do with it. For me I used 12k for a few YouTube projects like animation and design. That really fit me since I blackhat my way to create a community to watch my shows and such. This won't exactly work the same for you, because each campaign and person is different and the execution can't be the same. I firmly believe that if you were willing to invest you would have already done so in a project. We have people making money from buying traffic to cpm sites, we have people marketing youtube videos for serials and keygens, and we have people doing seo for clients. You take your pick of what you are interested in as it will ultimately decide your investments and returns. Just because I can make money with games and anime doesn't mean I can make money with selling traffic. The copy and sales strategy prep is not the same, and it does take research for me to write up sales copy for different niches.

Also, it needs time, in which I don't have a lot of since I'm ultra busy already. For you, your biggest enemy is going to be doubt and fear, so get ready to be blasted to death with those 2 emotions, and the paralysis that comes with them.
