Hi everyone I just ran a case study on my new website, and I've got amazing results to share with you! It has been up one month exactly counting today, and go ahead and take a gander at these results: Notice the FOUR content pages on the right? That is ALL my website has for "real" content. Now I have an index page and an "About us" page, but I got all of my real traffic from four sources! Want to see how the search engine statistics pan out? Well I'd love to show you! I'm getting anywhere from 45-90 hits from Google each DAY. If I decided to monetize that traffic, I'd estimate I'd be making around $100/month easy! The really CRAZY part of this whole thing is that I'm outranking old websites (some with years in age- mine isn't even a month!) for HOT terms relating to programming. And If I already have this much traffic with FOUR articles, imagine what I can have with 40! I could be rich! Have you ever wondered why if you do backlink building, you don't get very many results? Well, I'll let you in on my secret to making a great website in as little as a month: get unique content that no one will find anywhere. The four articles on my webpage took me hours to create. Was it worth it? Check out the popularity of them on SU! (Note I did NOT buy stumbles or trade them, I submitted each article myself and the popularity went through the roof!) My next secret: you're wasting your time if you are submitting the SAME article to article directories, or wasting your money if you pay someone else to do it! The secret to my success is using my OWN system to uniquely create articles that are HUMAN readable, and send each variation to around 1,000+ directories. We can tell the results are massive. Thanks for reading! I'll be checking in at the 6-month mark to show you the profits I've made!
I think Google offers new sites/content a ranking bonus, you will have to work very hard to maintain those high ranking spots I think.
wow good results , i will try this on my new domain . Good going with referral traffic , StumpleUpon was good for you. You site will grow even big, just add fresh contents. newcity,
I'm getting anywhere from 45-90 hits from Google each DAY. If I decided to monetize that traffic, I'd estimate I'd be making around $100/month easy! really? hop over to the adsense forum and see how easy that is to make from around 600 hits a month. People reckon they average 1000 clicks to make that http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=968586
In this niche? You don't think he'd be able to make 600 click throughs a month off the traffic he's getting? I believe he would.
"and send each variation to around 1,000+ directories" How much you change the articles and how many different version of articles you make?
I can already confirm I would. I have other similar websites that average ~$1 per click Thanks for the comments everyone, I appreciate it. Glad I could inspire you guys!
not so sure you would be making as much as you think because the majority of your traffic is from stumble upon which i hear the people from there tend not to click ads as much but nonetheless, great work and I wish you success. I have some high traffic sites and i make decent money from adwords (more than most but definitely nothing to really, really brag about yet) but i have been doing this a long time... even though I am doing well it makes me think i must be a doofus to have taken so long to finally get it right so while some might be jealous of your so called instant success i think it is always good to see people coming up with new ideas and doing well fast as it means i always have room for improvement.
good work done, 2 things if you want to keep the current traffic on you should have to same work in future too stumbleuopn traffic will go down and down make sure you have it future too mention the current status. best of luck......
To all of those who said the SU traffic is what I focused on: It ISN'T. I focused on Google traffic. Notice my thread said 1,000+ hits from Google, not 18k hits from SU
stumbleupon traffic is good but it's waste traffic, try to build more traffic naturally from search engines. Good luck
1,000 searches in my first month isn't good "natural" search engine traffic?!! You're crazy!! Guys read the thread title, I'm focusing on the Google part, where are you guys getting I focused primarily on SU?
