Made any money ? Hits improved?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Where are we?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;I've spent the last week brainstorming ideas for my site, and have researched two very good domain names, which i will disclose when they have been registered (Early October 2009). I've also got a lot of good ideas for the content of my blogs, focusing on making money online, which will hopefully bring people to the site and keep them reading. Also working on social networking, starting with Twitter and Facebook, building friends and content, and being very carefull not to promote anything yet. That will come when the site has solid content and my presence on these social pages has become established.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Made any money?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;No is the honest answer to that.

I've tried all these system's and schemes, bought and downloaded all the eBooks, including one automated eBook website!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Mission&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;-I will&amp;nbsp;build a highly profitable website that more than replaces my wages.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;I currently earn about £32,000 ($53,000)&amp;nbsp;a year, Yes i know thats a great deal of money and believe me i know how lucky i am to have a well paid job in todays climate, But i work all the hours god sends and it takes me away from my family most of the time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;-I will build a website that offers free impartial advice about making money online.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;The aim is to build the website (for which i have already a domain name in mind) using a content management sortware (I have no HTML knowledge at all) from an online company. I'll post the URL when i start using it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;-I will build the traffic to the site to 1,000,000 hits a month.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;I know i know, a huge figure. I've no idea how i came up with this figure, acutally if i'm honest (And&amp;nbsp;i said i would be) I thought if i could get a million hits a month it would definately make enough money. Think about it... Over 30,000&amp;nbsp;unique hits a day!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;-I will turn the traffic into cash&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;By&amp;nbsp;having all my advice and information available&amp;nbsp;on&amp;nbsp;my site for free I won't&amp;nbsp;have&amp;nbsp;any products or shopping cart, so the only way of making money from hits is to monetize the site. Monetizing is essentially adding adverts to the site in which you earn revenue back, for example Google's Adsense, the same as on Blogger.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;-How will i do this?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Not entirely sure...&amp;nbsp;That's what this blog and my website (when its up and running) will be all about.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;-Idea's&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Social Networking will be a huge factor to this.&amp;nbsp;I plan to use sites like Twitter, Facebook,&amp;nbsp;MySpace,&amp;nbsp;Hi5, YouTube, StumbleUpon, Digg, Reddit to gain as many friends, followers&amp;nbsp;and ratings to increase the likely-hood&amp;nbsp;of back links&amp;nbsp;self promotion and click throughs.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;By adding good honest content for free, with RSS feeds, and social networking tabs (icons for Stumbleupon, Digg etc) Newsletter subscribe's, Comment boxes. Continually add content in which people will read, re-read and share.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;So where are we on this journey?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Sites;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Blogger - &lt;a href="http://standbystandby.blogspot.com/"&gt;Technology Blog&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;, &lt;a href="http://chesterfieldpictures.blogspot.com/"&gt;Chesterfield Pictures &lt;/a&gt;, &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;Social Networking - Facebook, Twitter, Hi5, Myspace, Digg, StumbleUpon, YouTube&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;Hits so far (13th September 2009) 0 Hits, 0 Followers!

Then i will work on my website with building the content. Once i have built the site to have around 50 articles and or pages whichever i feel is more content rich.&amp;nbsp;I will continue to blog on Blogger, and the site, but will then shift my focus onto social networking and link distributing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;I'm aiming for this time next year to start seeing regular income, and hopefully well on the way to be recieving a million hits a month.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;A lot of work and one hell of a journey, but one, which i hope, you will follow.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9202461469845243772-1315264737788858165?l=replacewages.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://replacewages.blogspot.com/feeds/1315264737788858165/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://replacewages.blogspot.com/2009/09/beginning.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9202461469845243772/posts/default/1315264737788858165'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9202461469845243772/posts/default/1315264737788858165'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://replacewages.blogspot.com/2009/09/beginning.html' title='The Beginning'/><author><name>All Things Tech</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08425337423112556209</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_F7kwwKX_7yY/SqF9YXOCExI/AAAAAAAAACE/EHobrY6pZT4/S220/shuttle.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
