Making Money Online With Affiliate Marketing And SEO

Finally A $100 Day With EPN

Aaron Nimocks — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 01:22:21 +0000

Well my goal for this month came true. I hit $104.12 yesterday!

As for the totals of this month I’m on track to make the same as last month. Which does surprise me some because I haven’t put any work into my sites in over a month. Would of thought that traffic would of started declining by now but it hasn’t that much.

I’m still waiting on my content writer to produce the content for each site. Unique content is a must for every site!

Well Ill keep you updated as much as I can, but I’m still really busy. Sooner or later Ill post some FAQs from all the emails that I get.

My Second Month With EPN Earnings

Aaron Nimocks — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 01:38:22 +0000

Well this closes out my second full month with eBay Partner Network and I must say that I am impressed. For the very little work that I have put into this I sure am getting a big return. This goes to show you that link building inst necessary if you choose the right niche.

My goal from last month was to get 1 and 1/2 times those earnings but I almost doubled it. Which does make since because I did have twice the amount of sites, but I just didn’t think it would happen.

So heres what you have been waiting for… the screen shot

As usual you need to be a registered user in order to view my screen shots, sites, and traffic.

I’m not going to make a total goal for next month but in the first two days I’m already at $90. I do foresee a $100 day in my future though since I was just a couple bucks shy two times last month.

Terapeak Is A Must For BANS Owners

Aaron Nimocks — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 23:06:27 +0000

I ran across a site today called Terapeak. Apparently its a popular site with the eBay community so you may have heard of it but I never have. Signed up for the monthly service, something like $30 a month to give it a go and I was blown away. Not really sure why I created 48 sites now without this site. You can check out all of their demos to see what exactly it does but whats important for you and me is that it will help you find your niche.

Heres why I love it!

Shows all the hot categories, searches, products, ect.
Breaks it down to where you can see percentages of the listings if it sells
Shows you if they are spending more money on their listings and for what. Featured, Bold, ect.
Browse through categories and it shows you the top sellers.

These are the items for general stats

Total Sales
Total Listings
Successful Listings
Total Bids
Items Offered
Items Sold
Bids per Listing<
Sell-Through
Sellers per Day

Finally the best part about Terapeak is they have what they call a Sell-Through percentage. This basically tells you how many listings actually sell. The higher the percentage the better the niche. I believe this site was made more for eBay sellers but its an amazing tool for eBay affiliates.

It only took me about 30 minutes using it and I found 5 great new sites to make. Dont think I would of ever thought of these sites without it.

My Biggest Commission Yet With eBay

Aaron Nimocks — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 22:51:06 +0000

Yesterday I checked out my stats and I sold my biggest item yet. I have a few sites that I started 3 weeks ago that sells items in the $10,000 - $60,000 range and I got my first sale with one that was $11,000.

In total my commission was $69.

Heres a link to the product

With that said Im proud to say that I’m only $25 shot of the goal for this month. Guessing I will get it in an hour or two when the stats update.

On a worse not I still haven’t cracked the $100 day though I have became very close. The two closest days ended up at $97.50 and $96.99. Still a few days left in this month so maybe I will make it.

I will provide screen shots again at the end of this month so you can see it all.

*EDIT

I did get a $34.25 day so I reached my goal with 5 days to spare!

May reach my goal for June

Aaron Nimocks — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 20:28:00 +0000

My initial goal was to make 1 1/2 times the amount from May this month. It looks like I’m on track and could possibly do it even though I was thinking I was going to fall short since I really haven’t done any work at all for the network.

What I wanted to do for each site was to submit them to social bookmarking sites and have unique content on them all. Since I have been so busy I haven’t got around to do any of that yet so Im still making really good money with no link building or unique content.

Finally got off my butt today and just ordered all the articles needed from someone on Digitalpoint. Delivery time is around Friday so I hope to have all that content up in a week.

One of my other goals has been to hit a $100 day. Well I came very close a few days ago with $97.50. Really disappointed I couldn’t get that last few bucks, but oh well. That day I had 2 sign ups and then $47 worth of commissions.

Will do the screen shots at the end of the month and I’m still planning on putting all the traffic together and making a public statcounter account so you all can see my stats. Not going to make any promises though when that will be done since I have little time nowadays to work on this network.

Month Of May Earnings With BANS and eBay

Aaron Nimocks — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 00:01:38 +0000

The first full month comes to a close and Im actually quite suprised to see how much I earned with very little effort. If I were to guess, I put around 10 hours total work this month. That number includes the 24 more sites which I just got done with today and will be posting those in the next couple of days. So if you take the hours per income its really amazing.

Here is a screenshot from eBaypartnernetwork of my May earnings

With this month down Im going to set a goal for June. My goal is 1 and 1/2 times this months earning. I know its seems like a bunch but I dont think it will be too hard.

I Sold A Car Today

Aaron Nimocks — Mon, 26 May 2008 21:18:58 +0000

Just thought it was kind of funny that someone clicked through on one of my sites totally unrelated and ended up buying a car.

Heres the link to the auction

The commission was around $45 which was nice for that one. I tend to see though that only around 1/2 the items I get paid for are related to my sites.

My Best 3 Sales So Far

Aaron Nimocks — Sun, 18 May 2008 00:14:58 +0000

I have had 3 decent sales so far and I thought I would share them with you real quick to see that you can still make money from eBay and not NEED to get new sign ups for $25 each. So heres my top 3 with links to the item that was sold.

As you can see you can still make some good money with just sales.

These were all within this months revenue.

Half Way Through May Earnings

Aaron Nimocks — Fri, 16 May 2008 20:56:30 +0000

Finally got a spare minute to update everyone on the earnings. Since my last update I switched to Ebay Partner Network instead of CJ. Finished off my CJ earnings with only $53. This month is going pretty good so far and I havent done much with the sites.

I mentioned I was going to do bookmarking for the 20 new sites after I added unique content but I havent got the content yet. My writer went MIA.

But heres a screen shot of the earnings from the 1st-15th so far.

Will get around to updating more here in the future hopefully. Ive been swamped.

20 Sites Added Yesterday

Aaron Nimocks — Mon, 05 May 2008 01:18:47 +0000

Well I finally got around to adding more sites. I did 20 of them this time but I am going to do these a little different than the first one. The first one I did a massive amount of directory submissions and got over 500 links approved in just a week or two. These ones I am going to take it very slowly.

As for revenue so far I am up to Login/Register to view. I did make a bunch more off an already established site Login/Register to view, but I sold the site this week so I’m not going to track and report. Check out the integration though with the site, did it myself.

Heres a list of the 20 sites as they are right now.

As you can see I did a few sites for a few niches each and linked them together. Most people will say not to do this but I host with Seohosting and have 30 class C IPs so I feel safe doing so.

I also decided just to go with a more keyword rich spammy looking domain for these. Reason I did that is because finding domain names was pissing me off so I just went spammy. It really wont matter since I wont be doing much directory submissions with these.

I’m more going to focus on bookmarking and doing it the easy way. I pick up a copy of bookmarking demon for $97 and I can knock out tons of bookmarks quick. With a push of a button after its all set up it will get me 200+ bookmarking links. Which is great for someone with a bunch of sites.

I’m holding off doing this until I get my content up. Paid someone to write 200 words of content for each site, this is a must! Should be getting the content here in the next day or 2. After that then I will start bookmarking.

Still planning on making a page where you can view my statcounter publicly. Waiting to get the content up and some traffic first though.
