Newbie Challenge: “$10 a day revenue, in 7 days" Online

Discussion in 'General Marketing' started by electricsashimi, Dec 16, 2007.

    I started this thread inspired by sean1989 and his thread “Newbie Challenge: Make $1000 in 7 Days” I decided to challenge myself to make “$10 a day, in 7 days”

    This will be my first time attempting to make money online (I hope $10 a day is realistic enough for a beginner) and after some research, I decide that I will try to achieve this goal by advertisements (google adsense, clickbank... etc.) and selling digital goods through an e-commerce website, and not doing it by completing offers, or writing articles.

    I plan to create multiple websites on free webhosting and using a short domain redirection (like .co.nr). Hopefully by the end of this week I will have a revenue of $10 a day (or more).

    And once I have enough money, I will purchase a domain name and premium webspace. Then I will begin to develop multiple income sources from multiple websites to further increase my revenue.

    I will report at least once a day on my progress, my plans, and my earnings. I hope that the forum community here can give me some advice on my progress. Feel free to share your wisdom and experience.

    REQUIREMENTS
    - Start with no money
    - I can invest the money that I make
    - I can use anything I find on the internet

    First I would like to say thanks for all your support.....

    secondly I would like to report that my first attempt for income is a blogging website coupled with adsense advertisments.

    Well what is this blog about you ask?

    I decided to make a blog that will keep track of my financial progress of the money I make online. Basically, I will post all my earnings, my ideas, and plans on my blog as well as on this forum thread...

    check it out at

    http://phatpants.co.nr/

    Just to let you know, I did not spend a dime on a domain name, or webhosting. I used a free webhosting service at xtreemhost.com, and a redirection domain name @ .co.nr

    Plz... use my blog for any further updates, and feel free to give me any comments and suggestions....

    PS i will still post updates on this thread, as well as on my blog....

    that's how i started too ;-) now i'm earning about 500-700$ each month. my aim is 1,000$ until may for each month.

    also, if your english is good, try going at content creation section and do forum posting or article writing jobs. that would easily make you earn more than 10$ each day without too much effort.

    Cool,

    I'm trying to do something very similar right now. I think the question is do you want your $10/day income to be fully passive (not working for it, ideal) or generated from work revenue...

    You've got a good plan for passive income. Adsense can generate $10 a day very easily if you find a good niche, I would also recommend putting up an affiliate review website and gain commission (maybe off Amazon) off sales from there.

    Best of luck! I hope you post your How-To's here if you're successful for the new ones among us! (Me!)

    Good Luck. $10 per day is a reasonable and modest goal. If you are looking for a way to monetize those sites, then the link in my signature is ideal for that. Also you might want to look for cheap ebooks on ebay to sell on your site. You could get a whole package of ebooks for around $5 to $10 on eBay. Then you can sell the good ebooks you find in that package 1 all by itself for $7. A cheap amount, but it could contribute to your goal of making $10 per day. Don't write articles for other people once, write articles once for yourself, and then sell the content to many. :D

    ********************************UPDATE**********************

    Earnings:

    Blog: $0.48 from google adsense (phatpants.co.nr)

    I have official made my first 48 cents on the internet!!
    (I hope my 10$ goal is still going to be realistic)

    This wasn't a surprise for me since i didn't do much on advertising , in fact the only backlink i made was on digg.com

    What I tried today:
    I found a couple of scripts on the internet, including niche sites for google adsense, pixel advertisements, automated video scripts, but they all prove to be a failure. :(
    Now I am trying to find some good e-commerce scripts (I stumbled upon quite a few ebooks with reseller, with reselling rights)

    All in all, today was very unsatisfying for me.
    Tomorrow, I will try to advertise my blog, and update it...and try some SEO methods, which is still new to me....

    And also I am going to attempt the adultfriendfinder referral link. I think this method has been going around the net for quite some time, but if you don't know what it is....I'll explain on my next update, right now I'm getting very tired.

    If you guys have any advice for me, I will take each one of your comments into consideration
    Thanks for all your support! If it weren't for this thread I would of given up by now.
