I've been looking into reselling social signals (like FB likes, Twitter followers, etc), as there are several BHW sellers who sell them for pretty cheap. Almost all the resellers I can find are selling them at a massive markup and, if they're selling volume, they're walking away with a TON of...

February 9th Started working a bit more on the site. I changed up AdSense plugins and switched around some ad placement and made $1.43 in the first day of doing that. So either the new ad blocks helped a LOT (which they didn't, according to AdSense's analytics) or the last plugin I was using...

February 5th I've had a hell of a last week. Life seems like it's falling apart at the seams. However, that doesn't mean I can just give up on it. I've been working at this and I know it's got potential, so I'm going to start devoting more of my time to it and help it take off. Sorry for the...

January 29th Busy weekend and had a lot of stuff to take care of over the past couple of days, but I'm back in it today. Seeing a lot of residual traffic, which is encouraging, but still not the conversions I'm looking for. I changed up the ad placement so hopefully that'll work a bit. I'm not...

January 23rd More page views today but still no clicks. I'm going to tweak my ads a little bit and see if that helps with clickthrough rate. I'm also looking at some relevant products on ClickBank and will find one that suits my niche to market. Hopefully that will also bring in some sales...

Honestly, this seems exceedingly high for one pin. I know I still have to build up my follower base, but even massive accounts in the same niche as me are only receiving 10-20 repins per pin. I wish it were this simple, but it's just not, at least not in my niche.

January 22nd Wrote several posts for the website and got some feedback of Pinterest users, one of which is my girlfriend. I was a bit stressed out because, when I told her my whole plan, she began clicking on ads to try to make me money. She had NO idea about click fraud or anything, she was...

Hmm. I'm currently compiling lists of 10 things, each of which have a picture and a short blurb I put under each one. I name each picture exactly what it is. For example, if I was doing shoes, I would put "red leather sandal" as both the name and alt of the image when I upload it. The thing I'm...

I am using an Ad$ense plugin that is placnig it at the top of the article. My issue is whether or not to wrap the text, as with the larger rectangle, wrapping the text looks funky, because there's just a sliver of text down one side.

Yeah, I'm surprised I haven't received any clicks yet. It's a little odd. I tweaked the ads a little bit and we'll see how that goes for the next couple days. I'd rather not change the theme, as I really like this one and it's pretty simple (it's Petit Wordpress theme). I may just add a...

January 20th Wrote a couple of posts today and did some research on adsense to make sure I'm maximizing my potential revenue. Most things I've seen recommended the 'Big Rectangle' size, but with my theme layout, it looks very funky when I try to wrap the text around it. I'm doing a link-only...

The HostGator shpeel almost seems too simple. What sort of fine print do you have to abide by? It seems like it would be profitable for someone to make fake accounts and sign up for their own affiliate link...

Not sure what it means with the direct traffic. I've been getting that a lot with my website, and it's accounted for about half of my traffic thus far. I know part of it is me, but there are well over 60 visits in the last few days, and I know my IP hasn't changed that many times. Anyone know...

January 20th Been seriously sick the last couple of days. I didn't even get out of bed yesterday and all day this morning. Just been on my phone between sleeping, repinning content to make my profile look more active. Growth has been good, though so far, and I'm anticipating seeing my first...

About how many views are you getting a day? I'm focused on making posts now to try and get more traffic, since gaining followers now is basically 80% automated. My philosophy is the more posts I've got, the more traffic I'll get. I'm hoping that's the case. I'm trying to make them quality posts...

Definitely some good tips. I've followed about 400 people in the last 2 days and gotten about 60-80 back, so it's quite a bit higher than the 2%. I just make sure to find real people who are active in my niche, and follow the people who are following them. It usually means they're interested in...

January 16th Back on track today. Scripted together a quick script with iMacros (thanks, palarieneagra!) that will help me follow groups of people. I plan on following a couple hundred a day until I start to bolster my numbers and get more pins/repins naturally. I've got some renewed vigor for...

Thanks for the encouragement! It's exactly what I needed. I've decided that, instead of attempting to mass repin stuff, I'll focus on pinning quality stuff and amassing a big following. So I've "applied" to several more group boards to try to get in, and set up an iMacros script to start...

I realized that I've been jumping around a lot with my project pursuits. Something like this will happen where it's a hurdle that I have to get through, and instead of barreling through it, I try to think of another method I can use that's "easier." I need to just man up and realize that there...

I had a talk with Silver January and after reading through his threads and seeing how he does what he does, I realized I'm going about this ALL wrong. I currently have about 10 pins pointing to my website, and while they're driving some traffic, it's nowhere near what I need to make some money...
