$50 Into $1 A Day - Small Update

June 2nd, 2008

I’ve been pretty busy lately and no I haven’t for got about $50 Into $1 A Day challenge. There just haven’t been much to update with seeing that I haven’t done anything new with it. I’ll be posting the earnings and stats for may, soon. I think the Daily average is around $0.80 but I might be wrong. Anyways everything is still going good with it.

$50 Into $1 A Day – Twenty Fourth Day

May 12th, 2008

This post is sponsored by www.GoDaddy.com

With this site being a baby still, under a month old, the progress and growth has been exciting and interesting. I hope everyone is enjoying this challenge as much as I have been. It’s been a little of a 10 days since the last update on the progress, because after the site was finished developed, there isn’t much to do or talk about. Since the last update, I’ve been mainly working on my other projects.

What has been done in the past week? Let me think… Oh Yeah! Not Much.

  • Re-wrote The MRSA Treatment Article
    It took me about 20 minutes to re-write the article. The reason of doing so was to be able to submit it to article directories for more Back links.
  • Submitted The Article To Directories
    Spent around 30 minutes submitting to this article to around 10 article directories.

  • 2 Blog Comment Posts
    Just posted some small comments on related blogs.

Income

With these three sources of income (Adsense, Kontera, and ShoppingAds) the site has earned a total of $12.15 making the daily average to $0.50. This means this challenge is going as planned.

$50 Into $1 A Day – Thirteenth Day

May 1st, 2008

It seems like it has been longer than just 13 days since starting this challenge. I might be able to finish this challenge sooner than the expected 3 months. Even if the site begins earning $1 a day, I will still keep you updated on it at lease 3 month. Here are the stats so far:

stats

Not to bad for a site that is only thirteen days old. It has received 345 unique visitors and has earned $4.57.

$50 Into $1 A Day – Eighth Day

April 26th, 2008

Guess who’s tired… This guy! This morning started out a little crappy because of an awful dream. It woke me up at 5:30am and I couldn’t go back to sleep. Basically it was a dream about someone shooting me. When I decided to wakeup and get the computer, I was like a zombie at the keyboard. I was possibly drooling with a little eye twitch too. Well of course until I got my coffee than I became a half zombie still not capable of using my brain to work on my sites. Finally 7 hours later! I’m ready to write about the progress of the $50 Into $1 A Day Challenge.

So… I fibbed a little. In the last post I stated, “With the site done, the link development process begins.” Wrong! I decided to put some more time into the site and develop a simple blog on the site to help with promoting the site by allowing me to use trackbacks. I still might do a couple of other small things to the site but nothing major. Most of my time will be spent on the link development for now on.

What have I been up to with this challenge for the past couple of days? Not much. I don’t want to force too much at this stage of link development. I want search engine to see the increase of links as natural. These are the things done in the past couple of days:

  • Setting up the blog
  • Posted three more blog comments on related Blogs
  • Sent link exchange request with two related sites.
  • Added Kontera

Reader’s To Do List

  1. Write another (400 to 500 words) article
    All you have to do is write another into article on your topic so you can submit it to article directories.
  2. Comment on related Blogs
    Find two more related Blogs to comment on. Don’t Spam these comment with links just write the comments tastefully.
  3. Add a Wordpress Blog
    This will allow your visitors to trust the site more. Also it will give search engines more pages to index.

What does everyone think? Is this challenge even worth doing? I can hear people say, “$1 a day! WTF! I can’t do anything with an extra $30 a month. my phone bill is more then that.” I would respond with, “When I first started, it took me three months to earn $30 each month and I was excited because I knew if I could make $30 month online. I could make $3,000 month. Also when I first started, my focus was to develop site to improve my skills as an Internet Publisher. I might not be making $3,000 a month, yet, but I’m half way there.” Even though $1 a day isn’t that much, I would take that $1 a day over $0 a day… anytime!

$50 Into $1 A Day - Fifth Day

April 23rd, 2008

Welcome readers to another electrifying day on this challenge, meaning another interesting blog post on $50 into $1 A Day. To reassure you everything is proceeding as intended. To bring everyone one to the same page on this challenge, here is a little update. It begun wanting to help other Internet Publishers but allowing them to follow me through the process of developing and promoting a mini content site with only $50 to invest. The only way to achieve victory is by having this $50 mini content site earning $1 a day in three months (June 18). After four days, the site is developed with a total of 7 pages, basic logo, and three streams of income. That brings everyone up to date. With the site done, the link development process begins. I want this site to be ranked first in search engines for its main keyword.

The first step is already done on the link development, which is getting it index in search engines.

Link Development

Lets get this mini content site making some money!

This is the point where most Internet Publishers fail… Any Schmuck can develop a site but the problem is getting that site to earn money. These past two days, I’ve been going full speed on the link development process. The following are the things already done:

  • Posted two blog comments on related Blogs.
  • Submitted the sitemap.xml to Google Webmaster Tools
  • Submitted to 20 free directories
  • Developed a mini blog on wordpress.

Reader’s To Do List

  1. Find some related Blogs to comment on
    In Google, type keyword + comment. That should get you on the right path.
  2. Submit to 20 directories
    You can use one of my previous post’s to achieve this. http://bobschmuck.com/20-free-directories-submit-your-site/
  3. Develop a Mini Blog on Wordpress
    On that blog, add a link to your mini content site.

My old online buddy, Khalid has wrote a great blog post on “Breaking Down Success“. His post explains why even $1 a day is important. If you have some free time, I would recommend you reading this inspirational blog post.
