Hello BHW! First, let me say that I am really enjoying BHW and the forum has been a wealth of information. I have spent a lot of time perusing other IM related forums and so far this has been my favorite. I am new to IM but not new to working in IT related fields. I am currently a software engineer at a midsized software company and have worked in IT related fields for the last 10 years. I make a decent living but hope to one day achieve the freedom of not being tied to a 9-5 in an office cube
. I have a wife in college and 3 kids in school and hope that I can use IM to make my family?s life a bit more comfortable. With my background I?ve been able to catch on to things pretty quickly and have not struggled with the more technical aspects of it.
Yes, I?m a n00b but, I promise you won?t ever find me asking you to spoon feed me some magical money making method that will let me quit my day job in a month
.
So, on to my question?
For my first attempt at IM I picked a clickbank product that pertains to making money in real estate by purchasing homes with tax liens or that are in foreclosure. My concern is that this may be an over saturated niche and be too competitive. I was able to purchase a .net domain that contains ?foreclosed? and ?home? two of the keywords I would be targeting. My plan is to promote a CB product and have Adsense ads on the page. I used Scrapebox (an amazing tool btw) to put together a list of PR4-PR8 blogs that I will try get backlinks on. I also plan on creating some articles that I can submit that link back to my site. I am also planning on using a variation on Codythebest?s CL method to get traffic. Once those are set up I will probably try to use FB and Twitter to try and drive some more traffic. I have only just begun to look into the social media aspect and really don?t know what method I will use yet.
Should I target a niche that is not so competitive? Does this sound like a fairly sound plan for my first attempt or should I try something different?
Any advice that you more experienced IM?ers will be greatly appreciated and put to good use. And I promise, I?ll never ask you for the M4 (magical money making method), LMAO!
Thanks
