This industry is not as easy as you might think. It's still all about making sales. It's just that we sell something that pretty much sells itself. Once you get a guy horny enough, it doesn't take much to sell him.
Getting him to your site, and getting him horny is the trick. 
Start small man. Go read up about link lists, and TGP's. Start with the basics. Look at the top TGP operators. Those guys can clear 10K in a month, no problem.
It's one thing to read an article on TGP and think, "Submit galleries, make money, ok, I got it. What next?" but you have to be willing to do it. Just try it. Every day for 9 months. Get content, build a gallery, submit it, and then add it to your own netwrok. After 3 galleries, build a free site. Submit that to the link lists and free sites. And then add it to your own network. Repeat.
It takes time and effort. You will get out of this, what you put into it. Just know that it takes time. |
First off thank you for the advice, secondly I've been trying the more basic rinse and repeat part with the free sites, which I'm then submitting to link dumps, and also linking to from a mini network of feeder blogs run almost entirely from RSS feeds.
My traffic fluctuates a bit but on the whole has been going up. I'm playing around with blogs in the evenings to pass time and I've had some pretty good luck there.
What do you recommend for gallery creations though? Ive been using Express thumbnail creator in combination with Dreamweaver but my galleries don't look too pretty.
You seem knowledgable in the subject in general, could I talk to you over ICQ Perhaps?
