Hey everyone, sorry for the lack of updates, I have been busy finishing off my semester of university. I will now be more regular hopefully updating daily with the exception of weekends.
Not too much to report other than continuing the slow manual process of adding groups and keeping three FB accounts building up slowly. I have been doing some reading on CPA and it seems very interesting and I will look at a few ways I can implement it into my journey. Still no money made but that is OK, hopefully these next few weeks I will be able to work towards making my first $ online. I am planning to use the free trials of aweber and instapage to try out a few more things and after that I will most likely subscribe to one that I prefer. I am also looking into buying a domain or two and hosting, I am a little confused as to if I actually need hosting at the moment but I am going to find out.
As I said I will keep this updated more from now on as I have a lot more time to work on it now that uni is done for the semester, which reminds me... good news I have to take a class outside of my major degree (general education class... not sure if it is the same in the US) but anyways I have the opportunity to take a basic computer course which is cool it could help me with the basics of creating webpages etc. I'm kind of excited and this site has sort of inspired me to take it and start learning more, I know I can probably learn all that stuff online for free but it helps with my degree so I am happy to do it. I guess it also forces me to stay at it and keep learning which is great.
Thanks

Hey Everyone, as I said I would try to be more active with updates and post daily during the week.
OK today was a proactive day, don't know if it was for the good yet but I will see...
I created a free weebly review blog today relating to my niche, I then found a clickbank offer relating to my niche and wrote a review blog post of it. I spent some time making it good, however I am no expert at this but to me it seems reasonable to me.
On the right hand side of my blog I put a couple of CPA offers just to try it and see how they look and work also.
I then created a facebook page for the blog which one of my PVA accounts is managing (I am not using this account for spamming I just don't want to use my personal one) and then shared my blog post to that page. From there I logged into another of my PVA accounts and posted some shares in a few public groups with high member counts, I think one was around 40,000 and another 20,000. I am still taking this little test a bit slow as I am not sure how good this is to do.
there have been 66 page views so far with 47 unique
I have not made a sale or anything yet but I was not expecting to at this early in the game.
Plan for tomorrow:
Write up another review of something else possibly and also do some more light sharing of the links to the blog and see how it goes.
If anyone has any input on recommendations or ideas I can try towards this it would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Another update,
I have been busy again today,
Made another blog post and shared that around facebook slowly still.
I also looked into BTBs method and am looking to implement this slowly so I bought a domain and hosting for a niche like what he does and am slowly setting up the site to try out. I will explain more when I have it set up a bit better.
I also bought another domain relating to my niche and signed up to the trial of instapage. I am creating another landing page and writing a free book to download when people enter their email address. This is another go at my first attempt however I am looking to link some CPA and Clickbank offers into the free book too.
well it seemed like a lot was done today as I spent a bit of time working on it.
I think I have the BHW bug or something I can't stop thinking about the methods I have read and I just keep working through ideas in my head all day pretty much, its becoming a little obsession haha is this normal? I guess I am pretty excited about trying to make money now and am at least taking action which is a good thing even though there are no results as of yet but they will come hopefully.
Thanks

OK guys just another daily update,
I have been working on my free book giveaway for the landing page, I have little to no design skills so that is slowing me a bit but I am at least trying to do a decent job, I plan on adding in a few click bank offers and possibly some cpa's
As I said in my last post I am also trying BTB's method, I may need to buy some more PVA accounts, I have read that it is much better to also use proxies as well however I have not really looked into how to use them yet but can someone confirm that it is worth it if I am planning on using around 15-20 PVA accounts?
I have also read about a dynamic ip being of help too I don't know if I have one but I will find out if someone lets me know if that is also worth looking into. Thanks
OK for now I have my site up with some stories based around my CPA offers, I am using CPA grip as it seemed to have more email submit offers however I am targeting an Australian offer and story so this is why I might need some more accounts as most of mine are set up in us uk groups,
the reason I went with an Australian offer in CPA was because for now I wanted to target us uk NZ AU and CPA grip has some pretty good offers (that I could see) on their site, once I get into more sites I will get better offers and be able to expand.
I have not shared to too many places and have only received around 10 clicks to my site so far but again it is early days and I will build up more groups and accounts to share my links.
So that is all for now I believe I am getting closer to my first dollar... Wish me luck!

Good luck! I like the enthusiasm you are giving off when writing about your deeds of the day 
I don't recommend Mailchimp as I have heard they hate affiliates and ban accounts real easy. Also, you had completely normal open rate (20%) and CTR rate (4%) in your first email. I would suggest you keep focusing on building the list as you already had great results.

Your journey is looking very interesting but are you using any proxy or virtual phone verification for creating accounts at Facebook.
Good Luck for your future goals!

Hey everyone after an extended weekend I am back to my updates, made some progress... not much but its something. I have four to five really warmed up accounts with lots of groups (mostly the same groups as each other) and have been posting a few manual posts per facebook account to some of those groups. maybe like only 3-5 posts in total per facebook account per day. From this I have seen some results (no money made yet otherwise this would be a completely different post):
A few clicks and views to each site and the landing page,
around an average of 10 likes per post from my .com site on facebook
and a couple of shares and comments.
I think it is time to push a bit harder, although I am getting a few clicks here and there, there really isn't enough data (in my inexperienced opinion) to make any assumptions that it is working or not.
See stats below:
Stats my .com site
Stats my free blog
Stats Instapage landing page with my free book
What I am thinking is that I will put the free blog on hold as although it had the most views, from what I have read a free site isn't seen as trustworthy to facebook users and viewers. and I will focus on pushing the .com site and my landing pages while also trying to improve the quality of the posts, and also relate them to the groups AND my CPA offers that are sprinkled throughout them.
I estimate that I have been doing an average of 15 posts to 15 unique groups per day in total from my facebook accounts (Aside from Saturday and Sunday)
I aim to try and increase this average to 50 posts to 50 unique groups per day manually, that is 10 posts per facebook account (5 accounts in total) each posing to 10 unique groups. I will start slow again just to test by only using two facebook accounts for day 1 and make sure I actually can get away with 10 posts per account without ending up with the big ban.
Hopefully I have explained this well enough for someone to give me some advice and hopefully I am on the right track. I have been inspired by an image I saw recently that someone here posted, it was of a guy digging for gold but just before he reached the gold he gave up and turned back, while another guy was digging a different hole towards the same gold.
I may be on the right path towards my gold but I just don't know it yet and if I turn back now I will never know, which is why I am still here posting and trying hard. wish me luck!

Another update, hey this is just a short update. I have almost doubled my views to the site after pushing it,
I did 15 posts about my article and another 15 to my landing page, It seems as though the articles worked better so I will trial pushing that one out more and make a better one to share
today is not yet over but i am expecting it to be in the 20-30 view count, it is still not much but it is an increase and it does appear to be working.. slowly.
