Well I haven’t updated the blog in a while and it’s not really because I’ve been busy, it’s really because I’ve been just too damn lazy! Anyhow, I haven’t done any more promotion on the blog although it doesn’t seem to matter too much. It’s averaging between 40-60 visitors a day which isn’t a lot but it’s better than nothing so I’m not complaining. It’s currently ranking on the 3rd page of Google now for it’s keyword/phrase which isn’t very flash but as I mentioned I haven’t done any further promotion nor have I made another post on the blog so it’s really to be expected.

One good thing however is that since my last post I’ve managed to get another 2 commissions which is really cool. This makes 4 sales in total which I’m pretty happy with, hopefully by the end of the month I might end up with 6-7 sales from that blog, perhaps even more, we’ll see.

Another thing to note is that I just finished making another blog today to ‘Bum Market’ and I’ve already made a post to the blog and also made a promo video. In addition I’ve written a couple of articles and hopefully I’ll write another 3 for a total of 5 articles for this product then I might or might not write a few more.

So for the rest of this month I will have 2 blogs to bum market with and hopefully the second blog starts to produce commissions as quickly as the first blog did, it will all add up in the end!

Well I actually got a bit or work today which is pretty good considering I had a big night last night at my work function but I wanted to at least submit 10 unique articles to the article directory and I managed to get that done today so I’m happy with that. At the moment there are 5 articles which are driving traffic to my blog ,in fact that’s where most of the traffic is coming from. Another thing I did was look up the keyword phrase that I’m targeting on Google and there was a question on a forum related to the product I’m promoting so I left a comment there which of course leads to my blog, this too has been a good supply of traffic.

I’m not recieving massive amounts of traffic but that’s to be expected, the blogs only 6 days old although at the time of this post the blog has recieved 51 visitors today which isn’t too bad. The really good thing today though was that there was ANOTHER COMMISSION in my account. That makes 2 sales now which is better than I thought as the product I’m promoting would have a lot of freebie seekers and I really didn’t expect to get and sales for at least 2 weeks but hey I’m not complaining.

I’m going to write a few classified ads tonight to hopefully help with traffic generation and once my most recent lot of articles are accepted I might write a few more although I am struggling to find any more keyword phrases/keywords to write about but seeing as it’s a good source of traffic I will have to try and be a bit more creative.

At this stage the blog is no where to be found on Google but hopefully within the next couple of weeks I can slowly work my way up where I can start to recieve more free traffic.

That’s it for now , back to writing and promoting like a bum!

Well nothing much happened on day 4 to report about because I was too busy and spent too much time looking for a lens for my new camera on Ebay. I found the lens that I want , now I just have to make some money so I can buy it without the Mrs throwing something at me! So I didn’t actually get any ‘Bum’ work done yesterday (day 4)  and also the blog still had not recieved any visitors but I’m glad to say today that my articles got approved (5 of them) and at the time of this post (mid afternoon) that the blog has recieved 65 visitor and do you know what? I checked into my Clickbank account so I could see how many people had clicked through my blog to the affiliate product and 17 people had, so roughly that’s a 1 in 4 clickthrough rate which is pretty good……….but do you know what’s even better…………I HAD A SALE!!………..yep there was one commission payment sitting in my Clickbank account!!….that rocks!!

So after that good news I’m going to finish off the domain section then get back to work and write some more articles, make some more funnel sites and hopefully get some more commissions!!
