How to Be Successful- Fail Fast

May 2, 2012 By 13 Comments
path to sucess

Every successful Internet Marketer will have failed more times than he's been successful, it's just that people generally don't create a product or a blog post about how they screwed up. Which is a real pity as their subscribers then get disillusioned when their first project fails and they then give up. It really is Ok to fail if you know the reason you failed, and that is where most people go wrong. Once a site or a product fails then you need to analyse why it bombed it's only then that you can learn from it.  Be like a pathologist investigating a death and find the cause of the … [Read more...]

Backlinking Tools Revisited

August 24, 2011 By 4 Comments

15 months ago I wrote about 2 free tools that I was using as an alternative to outsourcing link building. Since then I have upgraded both to premium accounts and continue to use them on a regular basis   You can read that article at:   A Free Alternative To Outsourcing   Running an IM related forum means that I spend lots of time testing tools and products many of them aren't worth recommending so after a month or two I stop using them or cancel my subscription.  There are usually several reasons I don't stick with them.   1. They just don't … [Read more...]

Outsourcing – It Really Can Work!

March 31, 2011 By 3 Comments

I love it when my members go and prove to me what an idiot I've been! I am sure by now that everyone knows that you can increase your income by using outsourcers. It doesn't matter if you are only earning $100 a month If you put aside $20 for outsourcing that can help to double or treble your income. The problem is if you don't do it right you can give yourself more problems than you solve. Back in August 2009 I did a month long outsourcing experiment that turned out to be quite sucessful for me.(I'll add links for the 5 posts documenting it at the end of this post) the problem was … [Read more...]

A Free Alternative To Outsourcing

May 5, 2010 By 6 Comments

Are sites like this the future of outsourcing? Following from the amazing response to my last post I thought I would show you an Free/Cheap alternative to outsourcing some repetitive tasks. There are 2 tools that I have been testing for the past few weeks that are providing me with great initial results. The thing I really like about them is that they both allow you to start with a free account and "work your passage" what I mean by that is that in return for you providing them with resources the allow you to use the system. One distributes your articles to hundreds of quality article … [Read more...]

Back Linking – Over Hyped or a Necessity

September 15, 2009 By 3 Comments

The outsourcing experiment I am currently running originally started out as a test of how effective back linking is. After 6 weeks I am finally getting a grasp on some of the intricacies involved in back linking. First I suppose I had better let you know what my views on back linking were before I started.  I believed that all the talk about the power of back links was over rated and just something that SEO guys kept on promoting as they know normal people like us just can't be bothered to do on a regular basis. I can pretty much generate all the traffic I want by choosing the right … [Read more...]

Outsourcing Experiment Part V

September 7, 2009 By Leave a Comment

The Outsourcing Project has been running a month and it's now time to get rid of the providers who haven't performed well and who aren't pulling their weight. This can be difficult for some people to do but if you want to earn money then you have to get an efficient team in place. My criteria for keeping people on is that their rate is reasonable and that they complete the tasks allotted within a reasonable time. People do have problems so as long as they tell me that work will be late I am prepared to overlook it a few times. I have found that the best way of getting a good team … [Read more...]

Outsourcing Experiment Part IV

August 26, 2009 By 2 Comments

Time for another update in the outsourcing experiment. I've decided to keep the exercise going for another month as there are some interesting results coming in and it will take a few weeks to properly work out what they mean. There has been one development that has made the experiment so far very worth while. I've had to go through my server and create a list of all my sites and then see how they are performing. I am not the most organized person in the world and some sites that don't perform well in the first few weeks tend to get abandoned or fall through the cracks. Because I need to … [Read more...]
