Day 6 - Google Slap

So it appears yesterday there will a Google algo change. I had a couple sites I was working on that was gaining some traction in google that got dropped 2-3 pages.

My authority adsense site also dropped some spots so my adsense income for yesterday was a big fat $0. All I can do is just keep pumping out high quality backlinks to this site and hope that it starts to rise again. Mind you this site is a PR2 2year old domain.

Flippa

So I posted a site on flippa the other day and the auction ended for only $25 bucks. The site had at least $300 dollar worth of backlinks into it but I guess people didn't see the value in the site or I didn't showcase the value properly.

I am still determined to make some income off flippa because like I mentioned in my last post I see a lot of terrible sites making $347 or more per site. I also see sellers making outrages claims like make $800 dollars per day guaranteed in the next 30 days. These sites are selling for over $1000 this baffles me how people can be so dumb.

List Building

So yesterday I decided to completely re-work my opt-in landing page. Since it was converting horribly. I went to clickbank sales pages and study them for a while to see if I can get down a certain format they use. The page I studied the most was magicofmakingup.com because I know Travis is awesome when it comes to conversions.

This is a little bit of a difficult task because I never wrote any type of copy before some I am really teaching myself. I do need to pick up some materiel on copy writing because this is key if I am to survive in IM.

So after I re-worked my copy I went to sleep and woke up to a brand new subscriber. Hopefully this is good news and this page can start to convert better. In the past week my site has had 36 visits from EZA with 3 subscribers.

I have more article waiting to get reviewed and until this site can start making some money for me to reinvest back into it I am going to have to keep pumping out articles. I think I am going to continue to write until I reach 50 then I can reevaluate.

Today Goals:

Write 5 articles

Monitor my new and improve copy

Yesterday's Earnings:

Adsense: $0

Clickbank: $0

Flippa: $25
