Some days ago I anticipated on Twitter that I would have started a new challenge regarding making money. I know that many people are very curious to find new ways to diversify their income so I decided to focus my next 12 months on finding and experimenting new ways to make money.
Since I am already proficient with working online, my first obvious choice is to try some internet marketing stuff. I’m not really new to this as I am already making some money online, but I’ve never been doing it seriously.
For those who don’t know, internet marketing involves using internet channels to promote something, which is usually a product. In my case I will create some websites and I’ll try to rank them on google so that people can find them. I’ll also be selling other people’s stuff in those websites in order to make some money, that’s the ultimate goal of course.
The idea is simple and I have some friends who are making a lot of money this way. The only hard thing is to rank on google and thus receive visitors. I’m going to talk a lot about this.
I want to make clear that it’s not my goal and intention to manipulate people, indeed I want to create useful stuff that can help them. Ultimately google tends to prefer genuine stuff so it’s hard to think I could do otherwise anyway.
What I’m going to do
My plan is to create two websites per month, for a total of six websites at the end of the experiment. Of these, I want three of them to rank in the top 5 by the end of these 90 days. If the model is successful I can replicate my strategies and finally retire in an exotic island :)
Each website will have a minimum of five page and it will be optimized for multiple keywords. I’ll then focus my energy on promoting each website through articles and links so that google can rank them. I am already working on a plan that I will publish on a future post.
What you’ll get
My intention is to share everything I’ll learn with you here, so that you can have a complete picture at the end of the experiment. I’m going to write down every single activity I’ll do, as well as the time spent and the tools used. However, since I’m going to use paid tools, I’m not going to share them until the end of the experiment, as I don’t know yet if they are worth their price. The only tool that I can recommend already is market samurai.
Note that I don’t know yet what will happen, but I’ll work hard to make this experiment as successful as possible. You can expect at least one post per week about this experiment.
This should be fun!
