Amanda are you promoting acai with fake testimonials n shit through your aweber account?

Is that safe to do with all this ftc bullshit goin on right how?

amanda11 · 10-07-2009, 05:52 PM

Trigger: Yes I do use fake testimonials -- ME! "Me and my Aunt used it and we lose weight, it's good shiiiiiit".

Also, the FTC can lick my Canadian balls.

@Opp

Tips:
Top Banner too big and taking up valuable above fold space
Adsense why? $.25 click or $40 sale
Your banner shows a guy and your offer Lp shows a girl, whos your target?
And more banners and links to offer

I gave Acai berry a test run -- I uploaded some vids on youtube that I copied from someone. Made an opt in page, then 6 emails follow up.

Results so far: 3 sales, $120 profit.

The test run took around 1 hr to set up.

not bad how many people read the email for the 3 sales?

amanda11 · 10-08-2009, 05:12 PM

Rajuthan: The opt in list is only 22 subscribers. It's either fluke, or my copywriting skills rock.

lemons884 · 10-10-2009, 07:40 PM

Got myself a laptop. A dell inspirion. Don't have internet yet. In a week or 2 there moving our dorms and we are getting WiFi so I can't wait for that.

lemons884 · 10-11-2009, 11:20 PM

Day 70 Summary:

-Bought the domain www.hostgatoristhebest.com
-I am obviously going to SEO this website and see what I could do with it. The domain is straight forward and you can obviously tell what I'm trying to promote. I did this for a few reasons: 1- to give me something simple to work on and get back in AM 2- hostgator provides tracking for my referral clicks so I can see clearly how I'm doing. 3- I love hostgator
-I will start working on this domain and building it as soon as possible. I don't have internet access right now. I will, however, be getting free wifi in a week or 2. Our dorms are being moved (using library right now)

Questions Still Lingering in my brain:

-None

Future Projections

-Just building up content for new domain
-The other 2 sites will just sit for a while and collect adsense revenue.

Current Assets
Negative: $99.08

lemons884 · 10-15-2009, 08:36 PM

holy piss I ain't got time to do shit in tech school. 4:00 AM I got physical training and then 11 hours of school; after that I gotta study.

Only have time on weekends.

Falian · 10-19-2009, 08:50 PM

Under Current Asset's you should have each of your assets listed.. instead of "Negative $101.78"

imouttehre · 10-20-2009, 03:50 PM

you wont have time until you get to your command and break into a normal routine.

give yourself time, learn your shit, then do this on your nights and weekends..

The military will get redundant after about 3-4 months.

Trust me.

Yep I'm here to train and thats my main priority. I haven't done any affiliate marketing site building nothing since I have been here except I started hostgatoristhebest.com and don't know where I'm going with it lol.

neowave · 11-10-2009, 06:10 AM

Lemons, great job buddy. Found this post today, read through it and saw that you've kept at this thing on a daily basis before Airforce. Inspirational....especially your daily log b4 you left for the Airfoce.

Out in Colorado right? Any hazing still going on for the new cadets/plebes?

It sucks you'll only be able to work on this stuff only on the weekends so keep a pen & tiny notepad handy if you can. If you get any new ideas you can write it down right away. I'm sure that you're marching all the time and you've gotta stand at attention the whole time so you're probably brainstorming new ideas in your head.

Same thing goes for your hostgator site. From using their hosting for a while now you can write a lot more on your own experience & branch out into other sections of the site. Full articles, ideas, new pages, you'll have all this content written down and when the weekend hits then you can just type it out on the computer for a quick update saving you a lot of time.

lemons884 · 11-27-2009, 09:32 PM

Just letting you all know I am still alive.

Trackfieldevents is doing alright. Collecting revenue from adsense and getting good traffic.

hostgatoristhebest.com and 6packnow.net are going no where. Thinking maybe I could sell them but I doubt no one wants them. 6packnow.net is 1 PR.

Montye · 11-30-2009, 12:29 AM

WOW..so I just read all 8 pages.

First, amazing job man, you have documented a gold mine. I'm not just referring to the posts in itself, but rather the inspiration you have given me and others.

I am in final stages of manufacturing a nutritional supplement and setting up a word press website with a blog.

After seeing this, you have inspired me to document my journey through- researching a product to create- creating it- and finally marketing it. I will include things such as whether to create a llc or inc and in which state, how to get a toll free number, different marketing and conversion techniques and so on..

I think it will be helpful for all that considering creating their own product no matter what industry.

Love this journal idea.

Stay tuned.

Jokerr · 11-30-2009, 12:33 PM

Lemon, you're doing an awesome job. You're on the first page for the keyword "Track and field events", which according to Google's keyword tool got around 8k searches this month.

Rogue Girl · 12-01-2009, 02:52 PM

Amazing thread! I just finished reading through every page and on just about every one I learned at least one new thing. I've had a lot of, "Oh, that's how you do that!" moments with all these great posts.

Lemons, great job sticking with it this long. You're an inspiration to all new and old IMers. With your drive, persistence and the knowledge base of this forum, success will come. And it's in a niche you actually do and very much enjoy. So keep rockin it and more power to ya!

P.S. Thank you for what you're doing for this country.

cywicked · 12-01-2009, 03:35 PM

Is there any updates to this? Did the original poster start generating any income from the sites yet?

hang10 · 12-05-2009, 10:24 PM

this thread is awesome. please keep it up!

lemons884 · 12-07-2009, 08:57 PM

Total Adsense Revenue- $37.39

I have not made any sales. Only good site I got going is trackfieldevents which is getting me 100-200 visitors day. I'm just not able to monetize it. If I could do that I could be golden but I haven't done any of this in a long time and I really only got time on the weekends now.

greyhat · 12-08-2009, 06:39 PM

Hey - just read the whole thing! Great thread for a n00b to read... won't be bothering Bidvetiser!

I had a thought... you're getting 200+ visits a day for track and field events... The way I see it these visits fall in to two categories... people looking for info about track and field events - literally (discuss, javelin, etc..) AND people looking for track and field events (javelin event, london, 12/11/08) .. u know like real events that are happening.. In order to give some value to your visitors... what about info on actual track and field events... my bet is that the majority of organic traffic is looking for the second option... and lingers on your site for one to two pages before making a swift exit... I am a n00b myself and have tried to explain this the best i can. Anybody else see what i am getting at and care to elaborate.
Also... success stories page on abs site is screwing up for me also... run pages through http://www.browsershots.org to see how your pages look to users with different hardware/software to you.
HTH... Great thread.

Norwood · 12-08-2009, 07:39 PM

Maybe consider having an opt in where people can subscribe to a newsletter about recent events. You could put in some affiliate links to the latest specials in track equipment and such.

DTAlexONE · 12-09-2009, 04:03 PM

I don't know too much about track but maybe you can monetize it with track gear and equipment?

greyhat · 12-09-2009, 04:27 PM

You have proved that you can get visitors... (I liked the wikipedia method!). Now you need to think what are these people really looking for? Just 'tricking' people in to visiting your site isn't going to lead to conversions in the long run. Users need to be handled with care. Out of interest, do you have any info on what your users are actually doing on your site? e.g. how long do they stay?, how many pages do they view? and what page do they exit your site from? You will find alot of clues in that information.

The majority of my visitors are just reading information and leaving. My store page doesn't get much visitors.

I haven't updated the sites in a few months. Maybe I will update a few things and start getting back into this on weekends.

Been busy lol military life is great though.

lemons884 · 01-03-2010, 06:29 PM

So I updated track and field a bit.

I put up a simple ad on the front page and links on the side and dumped the store. The store doesn't make any kind of profit at all.

I currently have $40.75 in my adsense; but right now I'm getting public service ads because I'm waiting on my pin.

I'm still using the shareasale network which I like very much.

Not gonna update 6packnow for a while. Gonna leave it there for now. I'm into fitness myself....I got a plan for that site in the future

keepitreal88 · 01-04-2010, 09:36 PM

Read through the entire thread. Great work Lemons. I have recently started a blog in the diet fitness category but isn't as saturated or high traffic as the get a six pack category.

My keyword gets about 8000 searches per month.

I also post on the bb.com misc section. My name is skullcrusher45 there. Have you checked out the affiliate marketing thread there? I think you could offer a lot of guidance there (and get some reps too).

I'm on there. I give out advice everynow and then. I helped out OP a lot so hes pretty knowledgeable as well. That thread is mostly about PPC so I can only give advice on SEO and stuff like that. PPC is not my thing.

Awesome Day made my first sale! A commission from hostgator.

Pretty good mood. Commission is $47.76

Trigger · 01-07-2010, 02:41 AM

That's awesome man! congrats on your first sale!

The first sale definitely fgives you a rush!

Keep goin and YOU WILL have many many many more

This thread is awesome btw man!

0mitts · 01-07-2010, 02:58 AM

Lemons, thanks for the great thread, a lot of helpful info in these pages!

Question for you though - how did you remove the author/timestamp/etc. info from your static pages, like the contact us, privacy policy, etc?

gcad1981 · 01-07-2010, 05:22 AM

Great thread lemon, just read it from start to finish and now feel inspired to try a few of these methods myself.

busyni · 01-07-2010, 04:08 PM

This is a really cool thread. I'm surprised at your drive, thank you for indulging me.

tenwonder · 01-08-2010, 09:39 PM

That's great that you got a sale Lemons. I've been following your thread since you started. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your progress.

lemons884 · 01-24-2010, 07:12 PM

6 more weeks till tech school ends. Then I should have alot more time to get back into this.

I'm gonna completely redue 6packnow.net find all my accounts and such. I have still been learning stuff on here everynow and then.

GrindTim3 · 01-28-2010, 04:01 PM

Holy fuck man. Talk about determination.

Big_0n3 · 01-29-2010, 07:41 AM

w4rl0rdx · 02-03-2010, 09:39 PM

Lol, looks to me like he already has succeeded!

Great job ...I have a website adsense and Clickbank ads i started about a month ago but havent made any sales or anything from adsense that I put up a week ago. My site is ranked on the first page in google for my kewwords in quotes and the 7th place without quotes.

I know if I got more backlinks I could shoot up to number 2 or number 3.

Bofu2U, Do you think you could help me out with whatever backlinking thing you gave lemons. Or lemons to you have any tips for my noob ass?

Btw sorry for slightly derailing your thread, you can go back to owning now

lemons884 · 04-02-2010, 12:22 AM

Been a while since I posted.

I have made a few sales with this crap site:

www.hostgatoristhebest.com

Did barely anywork on it but yet managed to break even making a site in less then a hour. No SEO or anything on it really. Never seizes to amaze me that I put alot of work into track and 6packnow but that site brings the money.

Some proof of recent sale. On april fools day at once. Thought paypal was playing me haha

greyhat · 04-02-2010, 06:10 AM

Cogratulations!! Thougroughly deserved!!! And just goes to show doesn't it... perseverance pays off!!!!

Metcalfe · 04-02-2010, 12:00 PM

Congrats on the sale.

Tezza · 04-02-2010, 11:29 PM

Thats great man, really great. I've had a look over this thread and it just re-inforces the fact that patience pays off ! (2 months in I'm sitting on $21.35, wowee)

lemons884 · 04-03-2010, 01:15 AM

holy crap at this email on another forum. I changed someones life lol

lemons884 · 04-06-2010, 12:35 AM

I deleted everything on 6packnow and just making it a personal blog for myself so at least for now I'm not using it for any kind of profit.

catonkeyboard · 04-07-2010, 10:22 AM

Keep it up man, ive just started a week or 2 ago im on $0.42 oh yess!! lol

juntao65 · 04-07-2010, 11:51 AM

Why not also document the next wickedfire get in shape or w.e. the fuck it's called competition. There's more guys participating now, and i bet that shit would definitely retain visitors.

That is, if the participants are kewl with it.

wolfent · 04-07-2010, 12:22 PM

lemons884 it's really interesting. How do you feel about?

btw, what is the link that he is talking about?

nat3r · 04-07-2010, 12:31 PM

greyhat English Gent Join Date: Nov 2009 Location: UK Posts: 765 iTrader: 18 / 100%	Hey - just read the whole thing! Great thread for a n00b to read... won't be bothering Bidvetiser! I had a thought... you're getting 200+ visits a day for track and field events... The way I see it these visits fall in to two categories... people looking for info about track and field events - literally (discuss, javelin, etc..) AND people looking for track and field events (javelin event, london, 12/11/08) .. u know like real events that are happening.. In order to give some value to your visitors... what about info on actual track and field events... my bet is that the majority of organic traffic is looking for the second option... and lingers on your site for one to two pages before making a swift exit... I am a n00b myself and have tried to explain this the best i can. Anybody else see what i am getting at and care to elaborate. Also... success stories page on abs site is screwing up for me also... run pages through http://www.browsershots.org to see how your pages look to users with different hardware/software to you. HTH... Great thread. Share Share this post on Digg Del.icio.us Technorati Twitter

You could put in some affiliate links to the latest specials in track equipment and such. Share Share this post on Digg Del.icio.us Technorati Twitter

greyhat English Gent Join Date: Nov 2009 Location: UK Posts: 765 iTrader: 18 / 100%	You have proved that you can get visitors... (I liked the wikipedia method!). Now you need to think what are these people really looking for? Just 'tricking' people in to visiting your site isn't going to lead to conversions in the long run. Users need to be handled with care. Out of interest, do you have any info on what your users are actually doing on your site? e.g. how long do they stay?, how many pages do they view? and what page do they exit your site from? You will find alot of clues in that information. Share Share this post on Digg Del.icio.us Technorati Twitter

lemons884 King Shit Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: Maryland Posts: 457 iTrader: 10 / 100%	So I updated track and field a bit. I put up a simple ad on the front page and links on the side and dumped the store. The store doesn't make any kind of profit at all. I currently have $40.75 in my adsense; but right now I'm getting public service ads because I'm waiting on my pin. I'm still using the shareasale network which I like very much. Not gonna update 6packnow for a while. Gonna leave it there for now. I'm into fitness myself....I got a plan for that site in the future Share Share this post on Digg Del.icio.us Technorati Twitter __________________ United States Air Force *********************************** I recommend Hostgator Hosting. 25% off coupon code: lemons884wickedfirecoupo ***********************************

I have recently started a blog in the diet fitness category but isn't as saturated or high traffic as the get a six pack category. My keyword gets about 8000 searches per month. I also post on the bb.com misc section. My name is skullcrusher45 there. Have you checked out the affiliate marketing thread there? I think you could offer a lot of guidance there (and get some reps too). Share Share this post on Digg Del.icio.us Technorati Twitter

Question for you though - how did you remove the author/timestamp/etc. info from your static pages, like the contact us, privacy policy, etc?

Great job ...I have a website adsense and Clickbank ads i started about a month ago but havent made any sales or anything from adsense that I put up a week ago. My site is ranked on the first page in google for my kewwords in quotes and the 7th place without quotes. I know if I got more backlinks I could shoot up to number 2 or number 3.

lemons884 King Shit Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: Maryland Posts: 457 iTrader: 10 / 100%	Been a while since I posted. I have made a few sales with this crap site: www.hostgatoristhebest.com Did barely anywork on it but yet managed to break even making a site in less then a hour. No SEO or anything on it really. Never seizes to amaze me that I put alot of work into track and 6packnow but that site brings the money. Some proof of recent sale. On april fools day at once. Thought paypal was playing me haha Share Share this post on Digg Del.icio.us Technorati Twitter __________________ United States Air Force *********************************** I recommend Hostgator Hosting. 25% off coupon code: lemons884wickedfirecoupo ***********************************
