Daily Journal: Goal - $100/day NET w/ Bum Marketing & Social Networks

how long before all of your fan pages are shut down? I think number of people on this thread warned you of this few times. It was bound to happen and it did. FB doesn't allow this sort of marketing to take place. I hope you have another back up plan to make $100/day. Good luck.

 

The main goal of the fan pages was to create an initial customer base of 1 million people so that when I launch my FaceBook Application, I'll be able to invite them all to it in one big blast. The money coming from the pages was just a side effect.

I did absolutely nothing wrong building those fan pages. They were of an organization, I created an official website for them and put my fan box into it exactly as the instructions told me to. And they still shut them down. Meanwhile, these other Mafia Wars fan pages are sailing clear of the authorization process, which is clearly human reviewed. That tells me there's some hypocrisy going on in the office, or someone up top is playing favorites.

I did some digging at Black Hat World and it turns out that folks are using bots to add thousands of friends to hundreds of fake accounts, blasting invites to groups and fan pages, sticking ClickBank hoplinks in the info sections and letting the cash flow. If you thought 5,000 members a day was fast, try 50,000 members a day. That's how these groups on facebook can grow to hundreds of thousands of members in only a few days. I'm not into that, and I'm not going to do it. If my family asks what I do, I want to be comfortable telling them how it's done.

I'm not worried about it though. The plan now is to keep split testing these ads to increase my ROI from 300% to 1000%. If I'm able to maintain a minimum 300% ROI on Facebook ads, then the next few ClickBank pay periods should bring in $3,000, $9,000 and $18,000 respectively.

Once I get the Facebook application to have folks invite all their friends in 1 click, I'll use some of that cash to invite tens of thousands of people to it (this is what the fan pages would have done). When even a fraction of those invite their friends in 1 click, it'll grow like wildfire. Heck, I may even make 2 or 3 applications. We'll see. But that's where the real money is at.
