Starting IM - Choosing a Method

Hey BHW, first off sorry if this is in the wrong section. So I started IM about a month ago. I live in the United States. I've started reading a lot on these forums and learned a lot. I've read some really inspiring threads and realized that I can make money too. However so far I haven't made anything except about $4 from chaturbate. I believe I have everything it takes to make money through IM. I have a lot of time, the drive to earn, and the willingness to learn. As of now I know the basics of CPA and PPD. I have accounts with adworkmedia and fileice. I'm also interested in clickbank. However I'm not too sure where to start or what method to implement. I have a solid PC and I think I can handle any learning curves. I'm willing to try/learn anything. The only things I don't have is a lot of money to invest, I can really only buy domains and such. Also I'd like to stay away from google adsense because I know they can be sensitive. Other than that I can try anything. There's a lot of methods on these forums and I'm looking for a solid one to work with. I'm not looking to get spoon fed a method to earn thousands in weeks, I know it will take time. My ultimate goal is to be making $150/day in maybe 4-5 months. However to start out I want to make maybe $10/day then scale up to $50 or $100. Sorry for the long post, but if someone could point me in the right direction, I'd be very grateful. I look forward to becoming a more established member on BHW. I know with this site's help I can make something in IM.

Try PPC, start small....if you find something that backs out, it will probably be scaleable. if you can get adwords or facebook to convert at a profit, smaller ppc networks will be even easier. don't over bid and look for unique ways to get the same searches as higher competing words for a home run !

Welcome to BHW dude. I can only give a generic, broad answer, simply because it is truly the most helpful, and that is "Do what works for you." If you make money with CPA, then good for you. There is no secret to making money, just find a method that works for you, and stick to it until you are satisfied.

Try reading the stickies in here first:

And then move on to whatever other threads interest you.

All it takes is a plan and the will to achieve it.

Good luck dude.

Search up scrapebox and sell blasts on fiverr. Theres a thread by "macbaren" on scrapebox and he makes a good amount of money doing it

Here are a lot of methods and tips/tricks. I recommend you big sites where you can get more traffic but remember that they have a better security

Wow thanks for the quick responses, the day I hit $100/day, expect a donation from me!

Stop reading a bunch of methods, just pick one that you feel comfortable doing and concentrate on it until you fail or succeed. Either way you will learn 10x more that way than just reading all day. Trust me, I had that same problem.

I see, thanks for the advice. However how do I know when I fail?

Also one more thing, are methods from like 2011 still viable?

Try with ppc with free advertising. Find bing adcenter coupons and let the IM begin

Jesus, a wall of text... Is your Enter key broken?

Try different methods and see what you like, what you enjoy doing then stick to that method. Doing something you don't like on a constant basis isn't healthy and ain't good for long term income.

Methods from 2011 would probably be saturated by now. But you can still get some gems of knowledge from posts from way back then. You'll know you've failed if you stopped, that's the only way to fail in something, otherwise your a "work in progress".

Lurk around the forum and absorb some knowledge and wisdom from the vets. But do take everything with a grain of salt. Go to the Making Money section and read and reread the posts. Don't go reading all of them but those that interest you.

The best method will always be the easiest one for you to implement. One, because you probably know a lot about it so you find it easy. Two, working on something that's to hard for you to do will eventually wear you out and you'll burn out easily. Three, It's probably easy because you have the tools (software, skills, etc.) that you need to do it.

Try to motivate yourself all throughout your journey. Motivation in work is something most people neglect yet it's the one thing that will keep you going when things seem discouraging. It will also make you work harder and better.

Don't be afraid to ask questions. Granted some of the vets are a bit nasty with the replies but consider it as tuition for a brighter future. Also some of them are actually very nice. Be polite and humble when you ask for help. Nobody likes a proud beggar. This is a mistake some noobs make. A mistake than can only halter or slow down their progress in blackhat.

Hope this answers helped you in some way.

Is your usage of manners non-existent?

PPD and youtube would be your best bet considering you're still a noob who doesn't have enough capital.

Cheers.
