Bum Marketing - The Results For June
July 1, 2008 10:21 am Bum MarketingWell I haven’t really been updating this blog much because there isn’t really a lot to update. In review I started to promote a product via the bum marketing method one month ago. I picked a clickbank product to promote and then set up a blog, got my hoplink and then wrote a few articles and submitted them to one article directory.
It only took a couple of days before I had my first sale so that was pretty good although it proved to be the exception rather than the rule. As of writing this my blog is currently on the second page of Google for it’s keyword phrase and it’s recieving traffic although it’s not a heck of a lot but obviously enough to get a few sales.

I’ve only made 3 posts to the blog itself so I really haven’t had a lot to do with it but the good thing is that it’s still bringing in the odd sale every now and then so I’m happy, i don’t even know if I will touch that blog again although I might write a few more articles because that means more traffic which means the more chance of getting some more sales.
Also a week ago I decided that I would create another blog as I came across a new product that I thought would do well so I went about basically copying what I had done with the first blog. Although it’s not recieving alot of traffic it’s still getting some and that’s all that matters.

The Result?
Well after my exhaustive month of bum marketing…….o.k probably only about 2 days in total I finished off making just under $200 for the month which again isn’t too bad considering I haven’t done buggar all and one good thing is that over the last 2 days I have made 2 sales with the new blog and what’s even better is that I’ve made a sale a day for the last 4 days straight so things might be picking up. Another thing is that even if i don’t do anything more with these blogs, I’m still going to get the odd sale every now and then.
Now I have set my payment threshold to $250 for clickbank so once it passes that level they will send out my check and I am going to stick that money on my camera so I can pay it off quicker. Last months profits went into a lens for my camera but it was worth it as I’m having a ton of fun taking photos of the kids downg the stadium playing their sports. So this is what my camera looks like now with the new lens I purchased with last months profits.

Now there is one more lens that I wouldn’t mind buying off ebay but it’s gonna cost around $300 for it so as much as I would like to I think I’m going to have to wait until I’ve paid off a large chunk of the balance owing on my camera before I can think of getting it buy hey you have to have goals don’t you!
Actually here is a picture of my next goal, the Canon 85mm f/1.8 , it’s one step up from my 50mm lens that I got last month.

So that’s it for this month, hope you enjoyed and roll on July and my next idea!
