    Again - why are you asking us to do all the work for you?

    You need to develop these strategies on your own if you want to be successful.

    Get a dedicated server and start pumping out proxies that don't have the word "proxy" in them. They should stick for a while, and make at least $30/mo each.

    Yes, I've never heard of an affiliate marketer that was successful on autopilot. The successful affiliates invest anywhere from $300-$3,000 each day to bring visitors. If you want $1 a day from AdSense, then that's not going to happen from an autopilot page. I work on one of my sites a few hours a day and I still have days when I make less than $1 from AdSense as it's a low-paying AdSense niche. I do make more money on it using other ways though. The key is, autopilot pages do not bring visitors automatically. You have to spend time and money to bring these visitors. You can make an affiliate page like someone suggested and then leave it alone since it does not need constant updating, but be prepared to invest a lot of money on advertising it.

    Because that's how you learn quickly. If others have been successful, why not try their ideas if they are willing to share? Anyone who wants to learn everything from scratch is stupid.

    Sure, you do testing yourself on tweak things to suit you, but why try to re-invent the wheel?

    Maybe we just differ in the way we gather information, but I started my ecommerce company 4 years ago from my bedroom and I didn't have a clue. I read everything I could, spent hours on forums asking questions like this one. "How do I do this? How do I do that? " You often have the answer the next day, sometimes to questions which would take hours or days to work out yourself.

    4 years on and we are doing 5000 orders per month - most of the success of my business is, I believe, down to stuff I have read and learnt from others. I very, very rarely try something totally new that nobody else is doing (and for me it never works out when I do).

    Questions like the one in this thread are designed as a brainstorming exercise and already Traffic-Bug has given me an idea which I would not have thought of myself and which is practically guaranteed to make me extra money at very little cost. (He didn't answer the question I asked but he has helped me all the same)

    If you don't like to help others or share your ideas, that's fine, really, there's plenty of things I wouldn't share about my business. But just don't post unless you have something constructive to say - it doesn't help anyone. If you were after a reaction, then you have had it now.

    Thanks, what TRaffic bug was talking about (or what I took from it) was to promote affiliate products on my existing ecommerce site. This is a real winner for me as we sell a physical product which requires instruction/tutoring and I happen to know of a popular affiliate product which is a perfect companion. I'm going to blast my list with it to test how it goes down.


    Thanks aquarezz, I'm not familiar with everything you have mentioned but it sounds like it might be worth a look.

    Thanks. That's the sort of thing I had in mind.

    Incidentally, I just looked at your sites. The single autopilot site I have which I mentioned earlier (4 years old still bringing $80-$100 pm) was promoting clickcash which looks very similar to what you were doing. The site is a 5-6 page mini site with very little real content but heavy calls to action to the sign up page. The sign up page was on my site but served the ifriends signup page in an iframe so it looks like they are signing up to my site. (ifriends was saturated at at the time)

    Site fed by link list, top list and tgp traffic. No idea where the traffic comes from now or which bits of it is converting. There was no Google Analytics back then (that I knew of) so I might put analytics on the site and see what's happening. I might just end up back in the adult/dating game again. I could dupe that site for every niche there is and then just start again I reckon.
    I've noted your site so if I do get in to that again I'll try your program out - the payouts look big!
