Easy $100 A Day - Perfect For Noobs

[himanuzo]

It is easier to sell one person in 5000, a product worth $5000, than it is to sell all 5000 a $1 item.

Promote different products imo.

For any item with price above $5,000 from the unknown seller / seller who is not famous, most buyers usually ask an escrow service or COD (cash on delivery - seller directly meets buyer).

The price of the products I am promoting varies frm $100 to $1300. This commission is not from the products I am promoting, but from other items, which where purchased after going to amazon through my referral link. I don't want to give up unless becoming sure, that it is a bad product, because I have already put a lot of effort in making of a review site&comments.

From what I see, press release commenting, etc won't bring me a laser targeted traffic. Forum traffics are much better, but in my niche there are only 5 good forums, where link policy is somewhat strong.
I am getting around 350 alerts per day and post in around 100 of them and around 50 of comments are approved. My another problem is, that I live outside us and my timezone differs from US. So I can't reply to article immediately and usually when finding a very good article, it is already full of comments and my one does not get noticed.
But I try to be as less spammy as possible, I have now around 60 comment templates saved and am updating it everyday.
I am also trying to integrate into forums to post my links later on, but I have very few chances there.

Agree, but I think, that if your are promoting Amazon products, most buyers will buy with confidence.

How many visitors are you getting per day?

How many visitors are you getting per day?

I had 674 unique pageviews last week and average time on site 2.5 min. But google analytics code was not integrated inty my website properly so I can assume, that My website had 100-110 unique visitors per day at average.

My another problem is, that I live outside us and my timezone differs from US.

I live in the EU and I consider time difference from the US as a huge advantage, especially if we are talking about news/press releases. Look, most of the news portals prepare their fresh news VERY early in the morning, when everyone is asleep, so that when everyone wakes up in the morning (starting from 6am) to go to work, they could read the news while having coffee. So, if I post in the late afternoon/evening (European time), in the US it's early morning, no traffic and it's easy to be one of the first ones to leave the comments on the news. The same I can say about massive social network feeds. Most of them drop an update during the night (in the US) automatically, or very early in the morning.

As to your traffic, to have 100+ UV per day from news comments sounds good to me.

As to the forums, I'm not sure what kind of niche you are in, but I doubt there are only 5 forums to post to. First, there should be a lot more smaller ones. It will bring you less traffic, but the traffic may be long lasting. And if you drop your link in 50 of them, it can add up to a decent daily amount. Also, think broader. It's like someone was promoting "work from home" and "chill pills" to the "payday loan" mailist list. Hope you get the idea.

Another thing, you can make a list of the biggest blogs in your niche and comment on them on the regular basis to every new post. The only thing I don't think copy-paste would work here. But it may drive more traffic than from news comments.

Thanks for the reply, I became more motivated now. I made this assumption because, that most of alerts were made during night. I can not reply to them, because I am at my offline job from 9:00 AM to 18:00 PM, and I am working on this project between 20:00PM - 00:00AM. Today after seeing your reply I made observation and concluded, that news/press release articles (from which I am getting most visitors) are being added within my working hours and during night are added articles on ordinary blogs, which are not that worth commented because of low traffic and low approval rate. So I really have a huge advantage.

I have an excel file for this specific project where is comments/search phrases/forums list, so I am collecting information there. Now I will add /blogs sheet, where I will save blogs related to my niche (I have not met yet my niche specific popular blog, but I hope will meet). You are right about forums. Those 5 are very popular. There must be more, less popular blogs related to my niche and I will collect them all and then start integration process into them. In about 2 weeks I will have a lot of information and will analyze my comments/blogs (which comments/blogs drive more information), sort the comments according to topic so will make my job easier.

According to the niche, I am not promoting pills etc. I was trying to think out of the box and was seeking to find a niche, which is somewhat popular, may be discussed online and is not abused by spam. I think, that I am the only one, who is using this method in this niche, because I have not met spam yet.

I also don't worry about copy/paste, If I meet popular blogs related to my niche, I will write new comments. I will copy/paste them on other articles. Analyzing article/writing the comment can take 5 minutes at max, so if I consider, that it is worth the time, I will have no problem on effort.

Being limited in time, I don't have much time to promote on fb/forums, so I will have to somehow distribute my priorities an time between them. Forums are really important and can drive much higher quality (I have one backlink on one of the forums and around 80% of visitors are clicking amazon link!) and longer term traffic. Those news/press releases are buried within days, but forums have more potential. I am also considering to integrate into Reddit community, it can also drive traffic.

Thanks again for your reply, you look like a clever guy. I am now drunk and English is my second language, so might have made mistakes, but don't care about it at the moment

thanks for great tips

I may be wrong, but I have a feeling that you rely on G Alerts ONLY. If it's true, then let me add something.

You don't have to wait for the alerts to find good blogs and forums. Remember that there still search engine exists. As to blogs in particular, G has a separate search function called "blog search". All you have to do is to search for your keywords/phrases within the blog search and the top ones are gonna be the ones you need. As long as I'm aware, there are blog aggregation services also, like Alltop. But you have to try them and see by yourself since I don't have much experience with those yet.

After you have a list of the top blogs in your niche, you can subscribe to their RSS feed to get the updates and comment on their posts on time.

 

[cyrax]

day 5 on this system, check out my blog guys

weightlossproductsreviewers.com

It's not doing BAD, I had 24 hits yesterday, considering my business job that I work 9-5 at only gets about 20 hits a day, I'm already feeling somewhat happy with this effort.

I put google ads on the site that are going up now. I need to start commenting on other bloggers stuff.

Side topic: Does anyone remember the old Egotastic blog? Before the makeover, does anyone know what kind of wordpress blog that was? I'm looking for a wordpress blog that I can use pictures in so I can do like a celebrity sexy blog...THANKS

 

[CeceXXZ]

Cyrax please use the white color to type your text.

Well, the design isn't too good. You are using a very used WordPress theme which means being not professional, unique and trust-worthy. There are no buy now buttons as well. And yeah, again, the template is very standard. But for being your very first website it's ok. I suggest you browsing WordPress Magazine themes on Themeforest.

Keep it up!

You should be aiming for this sort of traffic (674) per day.

With 2-3 hours a day spent on Facebook, news and blogs, this is what you will get if you are in an popular niche, which you should be.

Here's what I still do with any new site I promote before organic traffic comes through...

Open Buzzbundle.
Just have facebook in one stream, populate it, open each alert in your browser and copy/paste a pre-written link. Something like "I cured my problem/lost 2 stone/made a ton of cash with the xyz system - see my review of it @ mysitedotcom"
If you don't have Buzzbundle, use google to trawl through the facebook site for the last 24 hours - you will have a massive amount to post on if you have a popular product/keyword.

Even if you have 400 alerts a day for your keywords, you can't post on every one. Should take an hour to get through the ones you can.

Then, open up your G browser, filter to the last 24 hours news results as I have mentioned before.

Open each news article in a new tab, you should have at least 30 pages of results to comment on. I will usually open up all the results on page 1 in new tabs, comment where I can on them, then move to page 2,3,4 etc and do the same.

Copy/paste to your hearts content. Keep an eye on which sites are moderated so you can write a better comment if need be to pass the mod.

This will take an hour.

Rinse/repeat the last step to the web results. This will take an hour also - make sure you comment properly on blogs though - these will mostly have mods and you need to get past them.

Then spend however much time you can on forums.

With 3 hours a day if you get into a groove, 500+ visitors is easily achievable. Get something posted on a popular blog/news page and you can get over 1000 - something I regularly achieve.

Then, once your site gets ranked, concentrate on getting organic traffic, or build another site in a different niche and start again.

I now have 8 sites that I started this way, Meathead probably has dozens, which all now get organic traffic and make a passive income. It really adds up quick if you build a new site every 2-3 months.

Meathead mentioned he still makes mid $1X,XXX per month doing this method and I can tell you for a fact this can be achieved if you are dedicated enough. I cannot thank the guy enough - if you look back 2 years in this thread I tried the method and failed. He pointed out where I went wrong, then my next site made money, and still does. I just carried on with the method in different niches and affiliate sites, building a new site every 2-3 months. Some worked better than others but they all work. I keep coming back to this thread and helping others because it is how I started online - all of the answers anyone needs to this method are embedded within its pages somewhere.

3-4 hours a day after you get home from work will get you a passive income for sure. Do it for long enough, and I GUARANTEE you will make more from it than your regular 9-5 job.

 

[DigiCyan]

This technique is in my top list. I am gonna give it a GO now.

 

[bigt41gopeay]

this is great method to start off on line. i wish some one would told me how to do this when i started. thanks for great share

You are right. I was true when saying, that you are a clever guy.
I have noticed, that some kind of traffic is very highly targeted. Yesterday I began participating in that sources, because when find a moment and drop my link, I won't get banned. I am trying to integrate into communities such as reddit, it seems like to be a good source, but my main problem is, that I barely can contribute into it's development. In order to do that, I must be like pro there or at least have experience within my niche. I am also working on that, but I do hope, that I will gain enough knowledge not to seem a whole noob. On one of the popular niche forums I opened a thread with my money site link playing the beginner. I got reply from a very authoritative member so I avoided ban hammer. Now I am going to continue discussion about the niche product in that topic so, that It will get a lot of replies so It will rank and I will get a long term high quality traffic. I will rinse and repeat it then. Playing beginner role is much easier and less suspicious in my case at he moment.

Alltop is useless in my case. I knew about all the forums and blogs were very unpopular and useless. Some were made by Internet Marketers, but I got the idea.

I am making sales, now I have $12 commission in total, but all the items are not related to my niche. It is very disappointing.

These days I will find popular FB fanpages in my niche and subscribe to rss feed, I want to post only relevant comment not spam, because I don't want to get ban. I will report back.

I am going to follow the same route with little changes:
BuzzBundle seems not to work in my case - It was good for online Q&A answers and I will do it manually via google. I will find press release/news sites via google alerts. When It comes to facebook, I don't remember how BuzzBundle was working. I will now set it up and see. Google gives me too much spammy updates via search method on facebook so it is not worth effort/time. The best rote is to find popular fan pages, add them to rss feed and reply. The problem is, that I can't find on fb filter, which will help me with that - I want to sort results by popularity but fb does not want to do it. Is there any method/tool, that will assist me in finding popular fb fan pages in my niche except google and buzzbundle or I will have to find them manually? I also don't want to do a copy/paste routine on fb. One of the members replied, that he cares about good exposures rather than a lot of exposures and I completely agree with it. If your comment does not get snowball effect of likes, it will get buried within seconds so I will only risk ban. I want to play that community instead of spamming, I am very new to it and am seeking to find out the rules of this game.

Today was very bad day in terms of comments. I was fixing my printer for 3 hours so could not comment. Now will rush through all the 300 google alerts I am seeing right now and go to sleep.

Thx everyone. I don't want to be within %99, who fail this game.

 

[lejolasho]

just don't be that guy, who uses his personal FB acc for IM purposes and later acts surprised, if it gets banned

Seems like If I don't stop my personal fb account abusal I will become that guy. I acknowledge that risk, but am hoping for the next chance from fb after BAN hammer. I will probably stop doing that with my account, too much risk.

Thank you Freddy for the info you shared. Always nice to hear when someone has a success.

A couple of questions for you:

- what do you do with the site that gets enough (in your opinion) organic traffic/income? you just leave it as it is and move on to the new one or update/develop somehow?

- How do your sites look like when you are leaving them and moving on to the new one? I mean, do you have some sort of standard like how many product reviews to have? whether or not have additional sections (how-to, tips, etc.) apart from the review articles?

Some sites are over 50 pages, with reviews and articles on the niche, some only have 5-6 pages. I will add pages every couple of months if I think of something that inspires me to write an article, or a new CB product comes out. For the most part though, they are pretty much left alone. You could quite easily get someone else to write you an article for a few bucks every week or so though, however I like writing, its my passion, so I do it all myself.

There is no set recipe or theme I stick to, it all depends on keyword competition and how many products are in each niche, plus of course whether the niche interests me. Weight loss for instance has a ton of products to review and can be quite interesting when writing blog articles, whereas something in the health niche like Vitiligo has only 2 or 3 - much better to just do a microniche blog for those as they bore me stiff anyway.

At the moment I don't really do it anymore though - that last site I set up was just an experiment to prove to people here the method still works. The majority of my time is now spent building my own product which will be launched in a few weeks on CB after extensive editing & split-testing.
