What I Have Done So Far
Welcome to my blog. If you have read my about me page then you know why I’m writing. If you haven’t, then I recommend you do. Just click on ‘About Me’ at the top of the page.
It’s only fair that I let you all know where I’m at right now. I have been attempting this Internet marketing thing since last year some time (at least seriously anyway!). I have made some income, and am probably in profit by about £20 ($35-40). Not impressive - but I have spent cash, so it’s better than a loss, right?!?!
I have started various sites. Some do not exist anymore, but the first one I ever ‘produced’ was Internet Marketing Success. The site looks completely different to how it used to, and the content is much improved from the early days - but I still have made almost NO money from this site.
This was my first Internet marketing error. I tried to teach people how to make money online BEFORE I had the answers.
The ‘make money online‘ niche is incredibly competitive, and hard to break into - especially if you haven’t actually got the knowledge!!
I still update the site every now and then, but not regularly. I do not believe it’s possible to be amazingly successful in this niche until you have mastered it yourself.
A long period of time was actually spent developing Internet Marketing Success. If only I’d realised sooner I was wasting valuable time!
The second site I set up was this one - not this blog, but the main site. If you go there now you’ll see that I just use it to give away a product for free. But, previously it was a splash/lead capture page. Every guru tells you that you HAVE to build a list, and so I attempted to do so here.
Well, I managed to build a list of about 40 subscribers. They are still there too!
Thirdly - and after seriously considering quitting Internet marketing - I decided to write about something I was passionate about. Sport. CLDsport was born. I have ‘employed’ writers for the site to write some of the content, and have managed to gain a Google Page Rank of 2 for the site.
The main problem I have with this site, is keeping it updated. Sports fans are always searching for the very latest news - minutes after an incident. To keep this site fresh, and current, I’d have to quit my day job (which I cannot afford to do), or hire many more writers (which I cannot afford to do). The site is still promising though, and continues to gain traffic when updated.
Next came Self Improvement Basics. I found myself becoming more and more interested in self improvement (mainly due to my failure to find my fortune on the Internet!), and decided to attempt to build a site on the subject.
The site is very new, and still needs work, but could be a promising one - even though self improvement in itself is not a very highly searched phrase.
Finally, I’d previously purchased the domain name Recommended-Sites.co.uk and thought I’d better do something with it, and so I have installed a Wordpress blog and started to highlight some of my favourite sites. I can’t report successes or failures as I literally haven’t done much with it at all.
Oh, almost forgot, I set up ProNitroBlogger.com only yesterday. More about that tomorrow though.
That concludes the first part of my introduction. Tomorrow I aim to share with you all the memberships I belong to, and any products I have purchased that I truly believe are helping me.
Until then, good bye!
