I am doing another test to increase traffic to my site: how to make money online. I wrote an article explaining how adsense and affiliate programs work, and sent it out through articlesender. Articlesender will push my article to thousands of websites, all who will give a link back to me. I don’t know how many of the links that will be counted by google due to the duplicate content penalty, but the main reason for posting an article like that is to get interested readers over to my site. If this works, both my adsense earnings and my rankings in the search engines will increase. If it dont, I havent lost anything except an hour of my time, as articlesenders services are free to use.
My philosophy is very simple when it come to websites. Traffic = money. More traffic = more money. I have not been able to prove it wrong, and I doubt that it will ever be done.

I recently purchased and read the ebook from The Rich Jerk. He shows several ways to make money on the internet, and gives examples of his own successes. Not all of them where new to me, but I did learn a lot. One of the ways he suggests is to find an affiliate product and just market it on Google AdWords. It sounds really simple, and it makes sense to me. There are products that you get more than $100 in commision pr sale, so I am definatly gonna try this out. This book is very basic and simple, it is not for you if you already know the common ways to make money on the Internet. It is definatly a book you should read if you are green on the subject and want to learn it.
My last exam this year is on Thursday, so considering my internet business and my pursuit to get rich, reading the Rich Jerk ebook is the only thing I have done so far. My studies have taken up too much of my time, but there will be a well deserved break in a couple of days. I am not gonna spend all my time at the beach and waste this summer. My plans are to launch two sites this summer, and try out some of the strategies in the book I read as well. PartyPoker (which I signed up for as an affiliate for earlier regarding one of my sites), have already phoned me twice regarding of the websites, and they are very eager to be promoted on it. They really liked the domain name, and so do I. And no, it is not a gambling site. I dont have any plans for that right now, but it may come later.

Abilca did good last month. I was actually surprised of how good it did, and I think the potential is great. It is however unrealistic to expect that it will one day rank as number one in Google. The traffic I get now comes from two major Norwegian portals, and I think this is the way to go. To look for traffic that come from other sources that the search engines, from portals that have a lot of visitors, and still want to link to me.
I have created a subdomain for Abilca, arcade.abilca.com. On that domain, I created a page where people can play those old classic arcade games, as well as some new ones. The page is completely free, and I don’t even have AdSense on it. I have spread the site to a couple of my friends, and I plan use paid advertising to attract visitors as well. The goal is to establish a base of visitors that play regularly, and then place a well seen link to Abilca as well as adding AdSense ads.

I wrote earlier this month that I had great expectations for May. My plan was to double my passive income, but I didnt do that. In May, my passive income increased to $65.00 pr month, almost six times as much as I had in April.
There are two major factors for this huge increase. Sales have picked up at Abilca.com after it got listed at a major norwegian portal, I exepct further increase in sales in June as well, and my AdSense earnings have also increased due to increased traffic. I suspect the increased traffic is a direct result of me getting more backlinks to my websites, and thus achive a higher ranking in the search engines.
$65.00 pr month is not really that much, but it is much better than $11.00 pr month. I have to start somewhere, and I started with nothing. At least it is something now, even if it is just peanuts. If I decide to go on vacation for a month, this money will come anyway. How many can say that about their paychecks.
My goal for June is to achive $80.00 in passive income. This may not be as easy as it seems as I can’t work much on new websites untill I am finished with my exams. I have three sites that I plan to create as soon as I am finished, and I think all three will run with a nice profit. If I get my marketing right, two of them have a huge potential for long-term income. I am very excited to see how this business of mine are running in a couple of years.
