Everyone wants to have a Blog about this or a Blog about that...a lot of talk. While for some it is great and some not so great. Not to mention the time it may take for your blog to generate a decent amount of Adsense rev. Last year I read a blog by a guy who has several of them and 1 he runs for his wife. This was when I first started out with Adsense and I was a little discouraged to find out it took him 3 years of blogging to break his first $200 day! I decided that day that blogging was not for me and I would continue to work with the service that I provided. And work on expanding and providing more services. Think about some of the largest sites out there...FACEBOOK or TWITTER. They may have an obscene amount of members and traffic and you would be hard pressed to compete with them... Now think if you could get even .001% of the traffic they get...for you and me that would be a lot of Adsense clicks! Remember not everyone is in love with the FaceBooks and Twitters of the world and many people have multiple community sites and services sites that they frequent daily...why can't one of these sites be yours?
I agree 99% .. In order to be successful you have to GIVE the reader something. This could be something like great content, but it's hard to create content (blog) about something that doesn't already have 999,999,999,003 other blogs or websites dedicated to it.. Creating a good, original service IS a great way to get visitors/customers - BUT what you failed to mention that this is extremely difficult from a creative and technical standpoint.. IF you can do it and IF you can do it well, it will surely pay off..
The next big thing is pinterest right now. For me, I think being the next big thing would be too all-consuming. I'll save that for when my son is grown.
Yes...you have very valid points. So this is what I used to start pushing my services: 1. The Butterfly Effect: Short Messaging Service 2. The Pop Gun: Targeted One word ads like: MySite.com 3. The Spread: Widget I created that over 50 bloggers and webmasters use... 4. The Marry-Go-Round: Bouncing your traffic from one site to another...all sites being in your Network. 5. The Army of Sum: 16,000+ FB Fans posting in places I will never reach[/QUOTE]
Yah, i've seen you post this several times, but so far I have only seen one of them actually explained - so unless i've just missed the other posts explaining the rest in detail, it's all just a bunch of happy-words.
