Journey to $100/day - Youtube + PPD

08/04/2013 - $11.50
08/05/2013 - $19.58
08/06/2013 - $37.02
08/07/2013 - $6.93

Very bad day yesterday. Lucklily, I got a $7 PIN submit today (so far), so I'll hopefully get back on track.

Also, uploaded one more video, boosted 4 videos with 5K HR views each, added some likes, subscribers and favs.

I'll focus on uploading one more video and gathering points on EV, Vagex and YLH so that I can boost all the old videos and hopefully rank better.

Also, after I hit $200 in pending payments (got $60 so far), I'll invest the next $50 in HR views. I reckon that, by that time, I'll have about 6-7 new videos, waiting to be boosted. ^.^

08/08/2013 - $22.84

Update for yesterday:
- Got a video taken down because of flaggers (it brang me about 20% of the number of impressions/day);
- Bought 50K HR views and used 40K;
- Bought 5K HR views on ViralSocials, just to test the waters;
Stats:
08/09/2013 - $14.72


P.S.: I can't really upload anything right now because I'm still looking for a good YT PVA supplier.

- Another video taken down. Luckily, this one wasn't one of the best.
- 2-4 days until I get my Youtube PVA's
- Prepared 6 videos for upload, made 300-word YT descriptions for 2 of them;
- Prepared 1 video for French targetting; need to find a good translator now.

Yesterday's stats weren't that great, sadly. Broke my impressions/clicks record again:
08/10/2013 - $9.81


I'm considering switching to FileIce, if this EPC/CR persists. I also tried signing up for Adnooka and AWM, but I got rejected. If anyone could help me get accepted into those two networks I would be eternally grateful.

Time for an update I guess, while I'm still sober. Earnings for the past few days:
08/11/2013 - $14.68
08/12/2013 - $23.05
08/13/2013 - $15.75
08/14/2013 - $26.34
08/15/2013 - $8.30
Videos up - 12
Uploaded (new) - 1

Yeah, I got an account banned yesterday. The average number of impressions dropped from ~200 to ~150. The good part is that I prepared 3 videos for uploading (including detailed descriptions, text files and everything else). The bad part is that I still need YT PVA's. Oh, well.

Long time, no see.

I could not update for about a week (went to a local extreme metal fest and shit) and, before that, I guess I was a bit lazy. However, I recently started again and now I mean business. Bought myself domain (.NET) + host, set everything up (multi-niche blog-like website) and I've been researching SEO ever since.

Will do a larger update later with my current situation, earnings (even though they severely dropped) and everything else. Over and out.

Ok, guys, time for updated I promised.

During the last month, quite a lot of things happened. I've had a lot of ups and downs: Youtube removing my videos, me reuploading them, and so on. What I've been doing since my last update, exactly:
- Uploaded 5-6 new videos and sending HR views, comments, likes and everything else. They didn't rank as I expected, but it's alright. Now I'll really work my ass off.
- Bought a .net domain and offshore hosting.
- Set up my multi-niche website with 6 niches.
- Set up widgets, just to see how it goes. I used YT traffic, of course, but I didn't see much of a difference.
- been researching SEO methods and finally found one that I'm sure will work, if I put time in it. It's a tiered strategy that goes like this: Website -> 10 high PR Web 2.0's (tier 1) -> Irrelevant links (tier 2), plus lots of other things like commenting with my main keywords in high PR blogs and so on. I pretty much figured everything out (thanks to DigitalCon from CF, if he sees this. xD)
- Set up those 10 buffer sites I was talking about and manually wrote 3 articles for one of my niches (for now, will write more). Will add the backlinks in a day or two, just to be on the safe side.
- Prepared more videos for uploading.
- Applied for AWM (CF has been quite disappointing lately. I'm not sure if the earnings dropped for everyone, or just for me, but I would like to try other things anyway.). I hope this time, since I have a website, they will accept my application.
- Been split testing out with FileIce and it was... meh. Let's just say that it was worse than I expected.
- Done some on-page SEO for my website, including things like meta-tags, meta-description, headings, sitemap, some minor fixes and tweaking too. However, I haven't really focused on keyword density, but I've been using SeoQuake to analyse each article and everything seems to be fine. I still have a lot to learn about on-page SEO though.
- Ordered 10 YT PVA's.


Now here's what I'm going to do:
- Write more articles for my buffer sites; I plan 2-3 articles for each one, at LEAST 500 words each. I reckon it will take me about a week to get everything posted, after which I'll start the whole backlinking thing (mainly blog commenting, not sure what else I can do).
- Upload a new video every day, starting today. Oh, and I'll be using ViralSocials for HR views - got pretty decent results with them.
- Finally found a set of working AMF scripts and I've been gathering points since yesterday. I'll use them to launch my website's fanpages (Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest) as well as Youtube likes, subs and favorites.
- I will try my luck with some french-targeted videos, just to see how it goes. Hopefully, I'll be into AWM by then.


Oh, and those were my earnings in the past month (CSV file, don't worry):

From now on, I mean business. I'm as motivated as I can ever get, since I'll be going to college soon (first year, haha) and I really need the money. If everything goes well, I may even be able to afford renting an appartment, instead of sharing a room from the university campus. But that's wishful thinking, maybe too wishful. xD

P.S.: Jeez, I really need to exercise my English more. It used to be pristine, but I haven't been speaking english as much as I used too. Damn, I already miss highschool.

Not much of an update. However, I set up a new niche, made 3 HQ videos (with voiceovers), uploaded two. I plan on preparing two or three more videos today and write a few articles.

Also, if someone could tell me how to backlink those buffer sites, I would be extremely grateful.

Finally taking a little bit more action. Took my time creating 4 new niches, including detailed and optimized YT descriptions, text instruction files and everything else. As I said, I will still use YT as my main traffic source for now and do SEO for my website in the meantime. Oh, and I made one video for each new niche, with voiceovers, plus another video for a good niche of mine. Uploaded one of them.

Regarding my SEO project, there's not much of an update. I'm still getting my shit together and, pretty much, doing lots of reading on the theme. I really want to do the whole tiered matrix the right way, especially those web 2.0's. Oh, and if anyone can answer some of those questions, that would be great

1. How am I going to backlink my buffer sites? I understand that the backlinks to web2.0's don't have to be relevant, but I don't know where to get them (besides link blasting, which I won't risk whatsoever)
2. Is it ok if I have a tag widget on my multi-niche site (not on web 2.0's)? Does it dilute the link juice received from the tier 1's?
3. I target pretty competitive niches. How much commenting on other blogs (with my kw's as anchor text) should I do (approximately)?
4. This is very important: While commenting, should the blog post or the main page have a high PR? Because almost ALL the blog posts I find in google don't have any PR at all, but the blogs themselves do. Also, is it recommended to comment on domain.blogspot.com blogs?
5. How many backlinks should I put in a 700-word article (on buffer sites)? Are 2-3 links enough?
6. Other than commenting on other blogs, how should I build those "irrelevant authority links" for my buffer sites?

Had to run some errands today, which didn't leave me much time for IM. Here's what I managed to do though:
- Wrote a 600-word, SEO optimised article and posted it on my money site;
- Uploaded 2 HQ videos.
- Read some more things about how to optimize articles for search engines - finally god the hang of it.
- Read a lot about tiered SEO. Hopefully, tomorrow I'll start working on my web2.0's again.

That would be it, guys.

hey good luck with your journey hope you earn more and more everyday
