A lot of great information here - and I appreciate how you break it all down in easy to follow and useful steps. I have been trying to make money online for about a year and a half, and even with paid coaching, no one has laid it all out quite so simply as you have here. Not that it's simple to do, as it does take a lot of time and hard work. But you show it can be done. If the contest is still open, please include me in! I look forward to following your updates. You provide such great content with your articles. Thanks again! Thanks so much! A lot of great information here – and I appreciate how you break it all down in easy to follow and useful steps.

I went to Yahoo Answers and found some really stupid stuff. Looked like a lot of spamming going on. Thanks for the help Don! I went to Yahoo Answers and found some really stupid stuff.

The way I used it here is once a person clicked on a link to my site, this Plugin automatically redirects them to the third party affiliate page. You can set the redirection to any url you want in the Redirection Dashboard. @ Denise Don't be so hard on yourself! I've done this before, so even though I didn't use any of my existing tools, I had some previous experience to fall back on. As I said in the post, I spent a huge amount of time in the last two weeks of January. I wouldn't recommend this for a long term project because you'll probably burn out rather quick. I would lot rather put that time and effort into building sites that get organic traffic from search engines. I'll make more money in the long run with these types of sites. @ Denise again... I just use the Avatar's that Yahoo provides and I spend very little time on them. The Important thing to do is spend a lot of time really helping people on Yahoo Answers and only put a link every so often. If you spam them, they will ban you quickly. I'm totally amazed at the idiots who go on there and answer a dozen questions with "this site has the information you need...www.somedumblameBSspammysitetheymade.com" Then they wonder why they get banned. Answer 8 to 12 questions for every link you put up and make sure the answers you give are good ones. At least several sentences long. Many of my profiles there have "Best Answers". This will help also. Don Phil, here is the link to the Redirection Plugin:

@ Denise again…

While I knew most of the techniques you described, the way you put them together and articulated everything over such short period of time was impressive. Many thanks for your material and good luck!

I searched and found ref. to 301s, but I think you mean something else? "I used the main index page as my landing/sales page and all the additional content pages were redirected to my affiliate link to the Merchants." Do you mean that you write posts, but when people click on the link to them on the main page they go to the affiliate not the post? If so why write the post since you are not going for organic traffic? Or does this mean there is an outbound link at the end of the post? It's late here and i am tired so sorry if I am being thick!

I work every evening for hours after working a twelve hour day and most every minute on the weekends and I don't even come close to making a fraction of that money. I guess I definitely need to spend some time in Yahoo Answers to start making some serious money. You impressed the hell out of me. to make this kind of money in two short weeks. Geez! I really feel like a failure now. I truly am glad to hear you did so well. You obvious;ly know what you are doing. Kudoos! This is totally unreal.
