I've been a member on this forum (and quite a few other IM forums) since 2010, but I normally don't spend much time posting, mainly just jump over and search the forums if I need quick answers. Lately I've been spending more time on these forums helping people out and making connections with people that I can network with, so I figured DP is a great place to meet a few intelligent marketers that I can bounce ideas off of from time to time. I've been in the internet marketing game for a long, long time. Started back in 2001 and haven't stopped since. I've had quite a bit of success with niche marketing, affiliate marketing, even had a go at the IM niche and built up a pretty decent list back in 2004-2007. I got out of the IM niche in order to pursue my more "real" eBay business which I ran for about 4 years until I got sick of eBay and closed down shop last year. I've been doing local SEO and internet marketing most recently and have built up a decent client base that allows me to do my own thing and stay out of the 9-5. I'm also running a few Adsense sites that are starting to gain some real income (almost $400 last month all together). Funny I never cared much about SEO before because I never had to rely on it, but now that I'm doing it I've become addicted. It's really begun to pay off as well with my clients' rankings and my Adsense websites. I'm hoping that I can meet some people here and that I can network with to help me grow my business and ultimately become a better marketer and SEO guy.
