I have been dabbling with IM for about 6 months very unsuccessfully , currently made about $100 but spent close too 2k. All the kit but don't know sh!t Yup that's me haha

This is going to be a journey with my wife. I was going to fill you in more on our background and why this needs to work, i even typed it out but then i realized how retarded it sounded. I'll give you the short version right quick which still makes me sound like a class one a-hole. We are now both unemployed and its pretty much all my fault, if we don't make around 18k before the new year then I pretty much have to leave the States and head back to Europe leaving my daughter with my wife. I lost her job for her by being a monumental tard, she was unhappy and i after a couple beers decided to tell her boss to do one. Mine i lost for a simliar reason. Winner i know. We just were not happy and something had to give.

So i came up with a genius plan after reading here and watching youtube.

Find low comp keyword
build site 5-10k word unique content ( all written by me and the lady)
tier1: 5 -10 web 2.0's hand built with 2-4k words with 10-15 unique article directory submissions (again all unique.)
tier2: Ultimate demon - with mad spun content ( what a b!tch this is 3-4 days to do it well enough and keep it readable) i spread the campaign over 2/3 weeks.
tier3- auto content (kontent machine) using UD
tier 4- scrapebox

Sounds good? I thought it did and really spent the time to get everything ready before even getting domains. It takes us about a week to prepare the content, get emails build FB, twitter and pintrest accounts, scrape new list for UD and generally get setup. Then generally 1 or 2 days to set up the whole the campaign. On the third week of the campaign i would start to monetize. I honestly thought i would be on easy street, sipping some fancy craft beer and smoking Cubans, writing a WSO and making Mr Cutts have a nervous breakdown at the thought of my awesomeness. Er NO im still stuck on the PBR and rationing my Marlboro lights.

In truth i never got passed Tier 2. I just can't get UD to work properly. The success rate is so sh!t maybe 5% at best. Iv'e spent countless hours scraping sites and spinning content, for this not to work. It's so frustrating. Any tips?

So the plan now.
Last chance saloon. Start 1 more campaign.

If it don't work the baseball bat is coming out.

Nah im just gonna try something else. I'm not short of work ethic and have a little bit of coin to keep the family going till around xmas, just got to get it going.

Tools i have
Market Samurai (not sure i know how to use it)
Ultimate Demon
The best Spinner
Scrapebox
10 dedicated proxies

Wish me luck!
Any advice , constructive criticism and encouragement will be awesome.

Tasks for tonight:
Find a killer niche and figure out how to post a picture of it here

Try to make a few hundred from Fiverr, you can use that to invest. :) Since you already have proxies and a working buddy, you should check out YouTube + CPA, or something similar. :)

Been thinking YT & CPA. Thast actually next on the list if we dont see anything with the current method.
Fivver nah not for me, we have a little savings and i just dont see fivver as a long term thing.
 
That's a really short amount of time. You really have to focus on the task at hand to meet your goal after 4.5 months.
With the tools that you have I would say providing an SEO service would be a good option. Or write articles for people, if you're really good at making articles you can probably pull around $100 a day. But you'd still be shy of hitting your goal at the end of the year.
It's going to be tough. I wish you the best OP!
 
Well an epic fail as far as my journey goes so far.
I woke up bright and early the next day to find my internet out. Just got it back today , and i'm about to start keyword research. The down time has given me plenty of time to think and loads of ideas.

I think i may have over thought it a little. Your input would be great.

So for one of my first attempts at this earlier in the year. I started a website focusing on Soccer, as its a passion of mine ( needless to say it has been a flop).
So my keyword research went as follows: Plugged soccer into Market samurai and found 5-6 keywords that had lower competition, and then built pages on them. I also just wrote about soccer , without any research games, trades, general news stuff, mainly because i enjoy doing it and i had the thought it would look a little less "salesy".

or should i have taken the 5-6 keywords (related by the fact they are about soccer but otherwise not) and picked the best one and built a site around that?
with articles like
best keyword
cheapest keyword
keyword review
newest keyword

Needless to say my head is about to exploded.
 
I might have a proposition for you if you're interested. Add me on
Skype: tiyowan for a chat.

I'm trying to get out of a similar situation, but I need someone State-
side to build a solid partnership with.

Are you still working in the soccer niche? I may be able to help you out if you are :)
