    This is how you make money on youtube!

    This is all fine and good, but... Can you SCALE this? :D

    Penguin 3.0 released couple of hours ago ?

    I need more SERPs to compare to be convinced of this, but what if the update only targets specific search queries? Maybe it's a 'payday loans 3' and not a penguin 3. Would explain why some people with spam are getting slaughtered, and others aren't. That's also a pretty big blind spot for the...

    Permanently Closed Marketplace Sales Thread

    I just got done talking to the owner on skype. Poweruphosting and BHW are currently experiencing a DDOS attack, the one against poweruphosting being of the order of 50-60 Gbps. They are currently working on filtering the traffic.

    How to get the same backlinks of your competitor?

    +1 for ahrefs, it's what I use and I'm killing it with what it gives me and a little bit of extra help from GSA. Then I throw in some web 2.0's, blast everything with a decent tier 2, game over for the competition and up to half the front page is mine with my money site and its parasites.

    Permanently Closed Marketplace Sales Thread

    Very interested in the InstantLinkIndexer.com, and I just might get around to using this for a change of pace from CLP. If the customer service has been anything like it's been for indexification, I'm sure I won't be disappointed. I'm looking forward to hearing about how the update goes.

    I've been getting the timed out error for the past 2 days or so as well. Edit: NM, just saw the post about not auto-updating to 2.0.2.5

    $100 a Day Journey Reboot: Destroy, Erase, Improve, Repeat

    Update There's good news and bad news for this update. The good news is, yesterday closed at $12.00, thus higher than the average I've been pulling for the past week. The bad news is, I've lost two videos, one of which didn't even last 36 hours. Granted, the one that died quick was for a piece...

    $100 a Day Journey Reboot: Destroy, Erase, Improve, Repeat

    $7.50 today, one more vid up as of right now, 2 already edited and ready to go, 3 more on the way after that, if I can get my ahead around the editing job that will be required. A fleet of new domains and landing pages will follow, that is if I don't fall asleep with my keyboard as a pillow...

    $100 a Day Journey Reboot: Destroy, Erase, Improve, Repeat

    Just an update to keep myself motivated, in case anyone's still reading. No, I've not given up. I'm steadily averaging in excess of $5 a day since my last post, just enough for this venture to pay off; this is achieved in an impressive timeframe compared to my venture into adult traffic...

    $100 a Day Journey Reboot: Destroy, Erase, Improve, Repeat

    Less than an hour left in the day, but here are my stats: Impressions: 179 Clicks: 22 reported by my networks, 38 reported by my referrer portal, and 63 reported by CLP. Interesting. Leads: 3 Earnings: $2.75 One more polish of the keyword list and it'll be time to get back to making and...

    $100 a Day Journey Reboot: Destroy, Erase, Improve, Repeat

    Things are gettin pretty stark, life wise. Havn't checked my earnings yet today; I'm hoping that after talking with my AM's and tweaking a few settings here and there, I can get back the 10-20% conversion ratio I was seeing on the first three days straight that I was doing this (before I started...

    I have 16k+ Tumblr followers of a Marijuana blog

    Do a youtube search on deep web. Of course, I'm not really suggesting you do go this route. I think the guy was kidding. That and I'm not even sure how that would work. Then again, I'm not going to be surprised when someone figures out how to make it work, given the level of creativity we can...

    $100 a Day Journey Reboot: Destroy, Erase, Improve, Repeat

    Another sleepless night. The social network programs are linked up for the main site, some more keyword research was done, the CPA Network cover site has a good 10+ articles on it, and to get some extra mileage out of it I used it to apply to adsense. I'm on page two of youtube for two out of...

    $100 a Day Journey Reboot: Destroy, Erase, Improve, Repeat

    Yeah it'd be nice if there was at least something to learn from logging all of this. I'm not giving up on the youtube+cpa hustle until I consistently have 15-20 vids up with a third ranked damn well. I was going to post stats with this, but I'll wait until the close of the day PST. Sad to say...

    $100 a Day Journey Reboot: Destroy, Erase, Improve, Repeat

    Thanks for the encouragement; I'm needing it right about now. 138 impressions, 36 clicks (22 Unique), 0 Leads so far. Is this actually normal, or is something misconfigured? I'll start worrying about whether or not I'm being shaved once I hit 100-150 clicks per day. I've finished linking the...

    $100 a Day Journey Reboot: Destroy, Erase, Improve, Repeat

    Yesterday's Stats: Impressions: 172 Clicks: 21 Leads: 1 Earnings: $1.40 I can't help but think that something isn't quite right. I'm at least getting a decent Impression to click ratio, but the conversion rate is just terrible. I can either dig in deep and make sure my postbacks are working...

    $100 a Day Journey Reboot: Destroy, Erase, Improve, Repeat

    One website done. Landing page tweaked further. Postbacks finally utilized, motivated by a suspicion that this may have something to do with the crap conversion rate (until now, I just had content lockers that couldn't be unlocked). Given more than twice as many content locker impressions as I...

    $100 a Day Journey Reboot: Destroy, Erase, Improve, Repeat

    Ugh... No earnings to report. Was suspended by my top converting network. That leaves just four networks, none of which seem to be converting very well for me. On the bright side, I've made a deal with a family friend; I'm going to make a rewritten and overhauled version of their website, and...
