just curious what everyone’s background here is. Just shoot the shit basically.

I’ll start.

My dad is a computer programmer. When I was 9 I remeber watching him join IRC channels, using CuteFTP to download games etc. So at my moms house, I would do the same thing, join IRC channels and request “warez” lol, until one day I got fixed, got a PM saying they were the FBI and were coming to arrest me, I didn’t touch the computer for a year, as a 9 year old I actucally believed it lol.

My parents and grand parents always encouraged me to follow my dad and get involved in computers because I caught onto thing fairly quickly, but when I was 19 I moved to a part of the country where Oil field work is huge and paid low end 6 figures starting off. I’ve been doing it for 9 years now, I spend 3/4 of the year away from home. I work in any conditions, rain, sun, blizzards. Anywhere from 38 degrees celcius to -50 below 12-15 hours a day. Working with absolute dickheads. It’s hard work, do I like it? No. But the money is good and that’s always been #1 for me. I realize if I take it and invest it properly I can move on from the life beyond oil field and eventually make good money to the point where I can live a normal life and not constantly be away working, it’s hard on relationships and your parents, I haven’t seen my parents in over 2 years.

Someone I know dabbled in the darkweb and got invited to a private forum with a select few people and some of the bigger players. They were legit, but the one thing They realized about the darkweb is the risk isn’t worth the reward. He actucally found out about BHW from the darkweb.

I’ve been dabbling into Instagram, been getting a steady 50-80 followers a day on my 1 account, just started a new one today so we’ll see how that works out. Looking to learn about CPA

Anyway, there’s my story. Would love to hear more about you guys.

I'll go! :)

So I actually got started in the church. Dont currently attend church any more but, its crazy how many designers/ marketing / video people I have met that got their start in the church. I then went to school to study 3D motion graphics, and then stumbled upon UI/UX design in college. Started to do freelance work, and got picked up from FOX to work on Family Guy stuff. Now working on my own products and looking for ways to best get eyeballs on those sites. Still new here so got lots of learning to do. But have learned the most from just connecting with people in the DM's.
 
Created an Instagram account 1-2 months ago and needed ways to grow.
Found this website and boy has it helped! xD

1 Account has 7.3k with 20% engagement
-5.4k - 30% engagement
-1.8 - 20% engagement
-1.3 - 30% engagement

I am using really cool methods I found for free on this website and I am growing really quick. (100-200 Follower/daily)

For me, 1/2 punching other niches related to yours. Hashtags are meh, I found most of my followers come from other users

It honestly depends on what page of the game you're at.

-0-3k F/UF by far
-3k-10k You can still do F/UF and try doing shoutouts with your followers and just engage with them honestly.
Engagement is key when you are doing Instagram, other social media sites probably not so much but Instagram for sure. If you engage with them then they will feel special like "omg some big page owner talks to me he is so cool" etc
This will lead to them sharing your page with their friends and most importantly staying followed and engaging with your content.

I have my own method that works flawlessly but I don't think I want to share it otherwise it will become really saturated

-10k-30k
I would say do sfs with pages in your niche with similar amounts of followers (MAKE SURE TO CHECK THEIR ENGAGEMENT!!!!!)
Join 10k+ engagement groups and just try to hit explore page. Make sure you do hashtag research, use RiseDecoded (Free research tool) on BHW
Using Hashtags before 10k honestly isn't worth it because it's just so hard to hit it if you are that small.

30k+ You will see natural growth, if not something is definitely wrong. You can still continue sfs with other big pages and you should keep doing hashtags and engagement groups because the bigger u get the more helpful they are.
After this, it should be smooth sailing honestly.
 
I might be like your dad, LoL. But I started when trying to make money for a new Laptop after I broke the one that I was using for coding everyrhing. Trying to make money online is hard, but I guess I got thru it and on a new phase now. Cheers.
 
I have been using internet at home since the early 1990's when it was very rare to own a home PC with internet access, and I was always interested in trying to make money online. Come forward to the future, when I wanted to set up my own website, I google searched something and found this site.
 
I started building HTML 'websites' in my primary school (back in 2003 at the age of 12) with some friends. We got the permission to work a lot on this since we used it for our projects we did on school. The sites were just some single pages and the header and menu in iframes so you just had to edit 1 file instead of every file when we wanted to add new menu items :d

Sites weren't hosted online too, just some local html pages connected to eachother. That summer I decided to start building real websites with one of the guys from my class who was involved in the project. From 2003 untill 2013 we did a lot of projects together and had even a company together for 3 years.

Men, I miss that time! We were like cowboys in the wild wild west :D

Now we're 16 year further and I'm a fulltime IM, my friend is a fulltime PHP/Magento developer.
 
I was a memeber of RSD Nation forum and there was this thread in random topics subforum asking if anybody made any money with Clickbank. That thread was huge - I even saw Alex Becker there making his first steps in IM world - trying to learn stuff like a newbie - few years later and he is a millionaire. Anyways, I made notes there and later joined Becker's forum but it didn't have that many people posting so I started to search for other forums I saw in that RSD forum thread. Warrior and BHW were the biggest names. Signed up in Warrior and saw that there weren't any real tutorials or anything - just everybody selling different courses and as I didn't have money I turned to check out BHW - never turned back after that.

Is Alex Becker the real deal? My YouTube is just spammed with his cringe ads lol

I honestly don't know what he does nowadays but the last time I checked his stuff he wasn't doing anything revolutionary. Mostly ranking for local search terms and then renting the website out to businesses. His email funnel software seemed good for tracking the lifetime value of your leads but I haven't used it myself - just saw a webinar once.

He has charisma that draws people in or pushes away - depending if you like his personality or not but he is a helluva marketer.
 
i am always keep looking for better ways to generate leads and that's how i came at this place and now i am addicted to it like a caffeine.

Anyway, there’s my story. Would love to hear more about you guys.

I didn't have a lot of friends growing up so I spent a lot of time on the computer. I think it is mainly due to the fact that I couldn't really talk to other kids my age. Honestly, I never understood why. It wasn't till like last year that I was diagnosed with autism. In class I got in trouble for reading books and in high school, I got in trouble for a printer prank. That one got out of hand. They got the police involved and everything. Nothing bad except use the open CP on port 80 to change the language and such... I was ~13 when I was introduced to programming and fell in love with it. I am now 18+ and going to school for Cyber Security, but my passion is still in programming. Lately I have been focusing my efforts on C++ and C for my CS class. My goals is to help provide open source projects that can help change the world (I guess), but that's a long road.

Quoting myself :)
Mere coincidence.

On a chilly day of Jan 2008 i was downloading my daily porn intake from a rapidshare folder, in the folder besides the juicy stuff there was a money making ebook too, some method about classified ad posting and AFF. I gave it a read, i took action and i started making money from day 1 practically.

Soon after that, i wanted to scale up, so i was looking for an email autoresponder, Google pointed me in BHW's direction and i can't seem to withdraw myself from here since then. :)
