Dude , This is a very inspirational Thread for a people like me .
You rock Man :)

Enjoy profit :D
 
UPDATE:

I wanted to give everyone an update. I have checked the amount of leads that these two networks have brought me since I've stated with the first AB on 09AUG11.

Here is a break down:

5212 - Visits
3 Minutes 42 seconds - Average Time On Site (The site is four pages)
93.21% - New Visits
43.91% - Bounce
2923 - Opt Ins

So that's just a look at traffic.

Now lets take a look at sales:

233 sale at $4.82 = $1,123.06
305 subscription program* at $98.28 = $29,975.40

Total Sales = $31,098.46

Cross Promotional Sales From Same Leads = $13,873.34

Total Profit = $44,971.80

*(The subscription program was a 30 day free trial that was included with their purchase of $4.82. This is the amount of times that the subscription program billed. Some people cancelled before they were billed and others were billed several times.)

All from a "set it and forget it" Blog Network.

Questions? Lmao
OMG, I will definitely try this autoblog thing. Awesome results.
 
Thanks guys for the positive responses! If you haven't had a chance to watch my *proof* video please do so. It took me about a minute and a half to make and I HATE wasting even a little bit of time ;)

The best thing is that since it is my own product, everything is delivered automatically online, my only cost is Merchant Fees. God I love the internet!
 
Awesome. Did any of your blogs get hammered in the last few weeks from some of the deindexing of networks and minor panda updates?

Are the sales you generated via the pop-up optins you had on the blogs? or

Did you have any of these blogs linking to your money site via blogroll or something else such as banners

None of my blogs were deindexed. If you do it properly they shouldn't be. I believe Panda targeted the big blog networks.

Sales are generated from the pop up, exit pop up, and a few other tricks. ;)

Some keywords linked directly to my money site. Also on a side note my money site is just a squeeze page. Some orders didn't happen THAT day but through an email auto responder sequence.
 
Reading through the thread I can see that you have changed up the method a bit since you started - at least in terms of plugins used. Here is my recap as far as I can tell (please correct me if I'm wrong)

1. Get blog, theme, basic plugins
2. Use WPRobot - add in keyword targeted contect and videos set to post frequently - also have this content spun using TBS api
3. Add Opt-in pop up and set-up responder series for your money site
4. Add some comments to various posts using SB
5. Do SB Blasts to your autoblogs to build some backlinks
6. Keep doing blasts - throw in some xrumer and social bookmarks
6. Set and forget

Did you tier any of the linking or just focus all links direct to autoblogs

There isn't an opt in on the pop up. Just a banner to click on and go to a squeeze page site.

Thanks all guys!

I started my own auto blog network with 14 free blogs, 6 bookmarking sites on weontech

Daily, find articles related with keywords form ezine, go... spin them, schedule post, bookmarking & RSS scraper. Everything is automatic with total fee 15$

First result: main keyword (on money site) go from page #3 to #1

Continues update and try something new with my auto blog network.
 
The only thing that sucks is that wprobot has so many errors when trying to get content from the article sites - the curl 7, curl 22 and curl 23 errors make it almost unusable
 
I thought about autoblogging. I am mostly concerned about duplicating too much content. I think I would rather set it up so more like scheduled unique content along with scraping content from the web. I am concerned about copyright too. I don't know how to give credit for content via autoblogging.
 
Great job man! Very nice results.

And I have one question, how do you sending your traffic to squeez page.
Are you using only banner on every page or the banner just popup when user visits your site ?

There's a free autoblogger for wordpress or blogspot blogs:
webmagnates.org/abs-promo/bhw.html

You can edit the content, mix in your own content, etc. before posting to your blog

You can tick a checkbox and it will link back to the source of the content pulled in - i.e. give credit to source automatically

I've only had the software for a few days and still playing with it on a test site - but it looks good so far

I regard this as more semi-automatic rather than full-blown autoblogging

I used to be a big auto-blogger - but found true auto-blogging posted a lot of junk to my blogs
 
would love an update...i have a blogger autoblog, but haven't paid any attention to it....i'd like to hear how your site is doing post-penguin too
 
So I wanted to update this journal as more of a coming to an end piece.

Penguin didn't bring me down (It might have but this happened right before Penguin). Google didn't de-index me. Finances weren't the problem.

Hosting was. I was shut down three times by my host for consuming to many resources. After that I was so frustrated and got into a shouting match, well I used a lot of capital letters, and most of the words were four letter ones. Finally they just deleted all my data and held the back ups as ransom. I learned an important lesson about always backing up your sites.

I ended up going into full time consulting for one client and have since thoroughly enjoyed my time there. I am getting ready to start another journey and I am sure I will create a new journal for that. All about building a business and driving it to success. Mixing online and offline using my new contacts that I have gained.
 
Its wonderful sharing your case. I am about to impressed and going to test too. Thanks.
