But Then Something Odd Happened...
I actually made some money!
I'd been experimenting with SEO, and working on this particular site for months...
And when it started to rise in the SE rankings, I got a handful of Adsense clicks...
It wasn't much money - literally about 16 cents... but it was enough to show me that there was some potential with this stuff.
So I did some more tweaking, and sat back and waited for the clicks to flood in... surely once I'm getting good ranks, some more hard SEO work will bring in a ton more traffic right?
Wrong... it just never happened...
The site disappeared from view... it had been slowly rising through the search engines, but for some reason it just took one long nosedive and never came back...
Months of work for nothing.
And that got me thinking... I was obviously doing something right at first, because the site moved up in the SERPs.
But then something else I did cancelled it all out. Big time.
What if I could somehow separate the things that worked from the things that didn't?
So I started experimenting - new sites, different niches, all different techniques.
To my surprise, the sites that were the simplest and easiest to set up were the ones that saw the most success...
It wasn't long before I had a site that was actually getting traffic and making regular money. So I pulled out the Adsense and replaced it with affiliate links.
That's when I started to make real money...
I made $600 that month, so I instantly started work on more sites like that...
