Making Money In A Whole New Way

Hey guys,

I haven't written here in a while, as my central blog ScottMW.com has been my main place of posting, but I thought I'd give the people an update on my journey.

No, I haven't reached $5000 per month yet on a steady basis. But I have been on a long and bumpy journey! I went from spending about $10/day max advertising money to about $150/day within a matter of a couple weeks. What happened was I started getting into ClickBank and made what seemed like a lot of money (read more about this here) until I figured out I was spending more on average than I was making in the long run. So about a week ago, I decided to completely cut spending and see what happened with ClickBank.

Now I knew very well that I had to make up for the loss in some way, so I scoured the DigitalPoint forums for fresh ideas, talked to my friends, thought about it a lot and finally came up with a couple of solutions.

Anyone who knows me knows I started BlogFlare.com a couple months ago and it's been a decent success, having received a Google PageRank of 5 in its first month and already having over 400 active blogs in its index. So what did I do?

I began selling space for advertising on the site at $10/mo per ad and so far I've received about 6 subscriptions for it. Yeah, I know $60/mo doesn't sound like much but it is $2/day and anyone who is scratching by with Adsense knows that $2/day isn't bad!

So then a friend of mine suggested I help him sell advertising on a few other sites with higher PR and traffic, and we've been able to sell up to about $750/mo worth of ads on sites. Now I got varying percentages of each of those sales, so my individual income from these sales plus my sales on BlogFlare add up to about $410/mo so far.

Suddenly, it's jumped up to around $14/day from these sales alone!

The next thing I decided to do (based on a friend's advice) is creating proxy sites. You might be wondering "what the hell is a proxy site?" Well, I won't go into detail but essentially it's a tool that most anyone can use to browse the internet anonymously. The cool part is that these things make decent money.

Since I started about 4 days ago, I've been making around $14/day average from AdSense as a result of having these new sites, and it's going to get better with what I have planned. By the way, if you're interested in creating proxies, let me know! I am building a large blasting list to announce new proxies to my visitors, and so far I have over 300 subscribers.

So yeah-- I went from being in a rut to making about $28/day on average per month just from my online activities, and this is traffic that will build! In fact, I am getting over 15,000 impressions per day as a result.

The funny thing? I have still been getting ClickBank sales every day! For some strange reason, people are visiting my sites through organic search results and still buying the products. It's fantastic! However, I don't really count the ClickBank income in my daily average as it's never constant. I just consider it a bonus!

So now that I'm making a steady $28-30/day, I'm about 1/5 towards my goal. The sad part is that I wasted a lot of time getting here, but I've gotten here in the last week!

Good things are happening people. It's about to get crazy. :)

Gosh. I've been following your blog for a while and though you take a trifle long time to post, you've got the stuff Scott!!

You're turning out to be a great source of inspiration and motivation - more so because what you tell is believable amount - -not some guru filling in a million a month or that.

Thanks for all the info you've given buddy! You are really a great source of motivation to me and to others who are yet to make money online!

Sorry to be rude, but it sounds like you guys are playing around with peanuts!!
I have come across an amazing way to make money over the internet, leveraging off the success of the Movie "The Secret"....if you don't know what I'm talking about, you don't know what I am talking about, but if you have seen it, I think you'll appreciate what I have to show you.....I'll give you a free report that will not only give you access to the program but will tell you what its founder, Bob Proctor, had in mind when he put the whole deal together.
Seriously, this is the best way to make money over the internet within a few short months....$5,000 per month you are looking for? We'll go no further....if you dismiss this before checking it out, you know the 'Law of Attraction' doesn't apply to you!
Here's the link:
