How to make a living with only 10 visitors daily

Before I reveal the secret on how to make money online after 1 year of blogging: look at the 2 pictures below. Both pictures show a huge crowd, but which of the people are really buying?

not making money online

make money online food

This is a no brainer: the bums on the beach are just using up space. Maybe they have spent lots of money on:

  • traveling to the beach,
  • staying in the hotels nearby, but

once they are on the beach : hardly any money is spent…
except for some people buying an icecream

Now the second picture: the only reason why the people are in this hawkers street filled with food is to spend their money on buying food!

Is your website a filled beach?

Look at this Linky Love: what do you see: “a beach or a hawkers street”?

Our Linky Love is a typical "beach website": lots of people drop by and if I am lucky, they “buy my icecream”…

If your business plan is based on "if I am lucky", you might as well buy a ticket on the lottery…

Is your website a hawkers street?

Look at the screenshots below:

make money attracting lots of visitors

All you can do on this
"I made well over $6.666.57 a month generating 25.000 visitors" is…
buy Atomic Blogging.

make money attracting buyers

All you can do on this "Make easy money using Squidoo and Bum Marketing" is…
buy Squidoo Queen.

You see there is no confusion, no getting distracted by anything:

  • just making sure you buy their 2 great products,
  • just like any restaurant tries to serve you a great meal at dinner.

So how to make money with only 10 visitors daily?

You make sure that you only attract 10 buyers.

Let’s stick with restaurants again (yes, you are not the only one Alvin who comes from a coffee shop background just to make it big outside the coffee shop).

Really it’s no use that 10.000 visitors go in your restaurant, just to browse over the menu and walk out again.

You rather have 3 bookings of 10 people all in all and set your price high enough for the 10 visitors:

  • to be able to pay your price
  • to get a meal that’s really worth the money you ask for.

Now the real secret of making money online you just read above and most likely you didn’t even notice it:

…You rather have 3 bookings…

BOOKINGS is the key word: don’t wait until you get somebody stumbling by, but

make sure the ones stepping through your door
are going to leave paying
.

Now you say: how do I do that? Let me answer that below :-)

How to make money on the Internet with quality visitors

1. You need something to sell:

  • that is on topic with your site
  • that you believe in yourself
  • that is in a niche

You can find lot’s of things to sell in our 2 "Clickbank formula improved" tutorials.

You can find a niche using Alvin’s keyword research tool that comes when you buy his Atomic Blogging package.

2. You need buyers:

You need to attract people that once they get on your website, they buy, just like when somebody steps into a restaurant, you make sure she or he gets seated, gets a good view on the menu or gets already a free taster.

Ok, my father can teach you everything to get money out of selling food, but when it comes to attracting quality visitors to your website, Kelly can teach you everything to attract visitors that will buy on your website.

Don’t put your eggs in 1 basket

As usual, I recommend you don’t limit yourself to one strategy. But make also sure you don’t drown in “all the strategies” you read on the Internet. Mostly they are just variations on the same subject anyway.

Don’t use more than 7 eggs, and Linky Love is at this moment using 4:

  1. attracting a crowd using the techniques from Alvin’s Atomic Blogging package and
  2. monetizing this "beach crowd" with "icecream" in the form of advertisement
  3. attracting quality buyers using the techniques from Kelly’s Squidoo and Bum Marketing package and
  4. monetizing on 2 products I strongly believe in because I use them myself (if you by now don’t know which 2 products that are, then ask in a comment!)

If you find I need to explain something in more detail, please ask so I can teach you better how you can make money online!

How to make money with Linkworth Tutorial (2)

linkworth earn moreRead also our first part of our Linkworth tutorial at How to earn money with LinkWorth.

During our first part of our tutorial, we told you to set your link-price to a value you really think your links are worth.

If you set a "greedy" price like I did the first time, you will get an email from Linkworth
saying that they "disapprove your site":

We are sorry, but we were unable to approve your website…

No need to panic, at the bottom of the same email they will tell you why.

The most common reason is:

Price is too high.

So now you wonder: so which price is not too high?

How much is your blog worth

High and low is very subjective: according to the blog value tool below my blog is worth a whopping $168,232.92.

Great… but as long as nobody buys my blog for that price, I am not earning a 6 figure income yet.


My blog is worth $168,232.92.
How much is your blog worth?

Use the LinkQuote tool to get an idea

Linkworth has a tool that will give you an indication how high or low you should set the price for your links. Before we show you how it works, I tell you my strategy:

  1. I set the price I would be happy with to get
  2. Normally my price is way too high so I have a look at the LinkQuote tool
  3. If the LinkQuote price is higher than my price, I sit and wait
    If the LinkQuote price is lower than my price, I lower my price a bit, sit and wait. I repeat this exercise every so many days until people start paying my price.
    (of course don’t tell anybody how many days, weeks, months or years you wait until you lower your price… :twisted:

LinkQuote tool example

You login to Linkworth (I assume by now you already signed up, if not, then do it now) and go to TOOLS

linkworth linkquote

In my tools, look for the linkquote tab and click it:

linkquote linkworth

You will then see the "linkqoute tool" where you type in your website, for me that is www.linkylove.net

linkquote tool

Press "get Quote" to see your recommended link prices.

My Recommended link prices are as follows:

linky love linkworth

… So the maximum price I should ask for a link is $25. If you are happy with that, than that’s the price you use when you set your price.

I wasn’t happy with 25, so I have set my price higher and sit and wait. Why? Because always have other eggs in your basket and don’t lower your price to something you are not at all happy with.

On the other hand be realistic: if you aren’t making money anywhere, lowering your price to $15 would be a good option in the above example.

Remember:

  • if you opted a 50/50 split with Linkworth and
  • you set your price at 25 $,
  • you will only get 50/50 meaning 12.50 $.

LinkQuote tool secret

The real value of this tool is that it tells you the secret of how Linkworth calculates it’s prices. Below their recommended prices they will show you the following (again example of www.linkylove.net)

linkquote calculation

There you are: they don’t care that much about your real visitors traffic (Alexa rankings are US based). So if you are not ranking high in our TOPLIST, then don’t feel sad.

It took me about a year to find out that "more visitors" equals "more money" is only 16% of Linkworth’s entire truth.

For my regular visitors wondering why I am no more frantically working my butt off to rank first in our TOPLIST:

  • it’s quite cold on top :-) and
  • there is more money to earn at lower altitudes :-)

Tools

Tools are only useful if they tell you how they work and if they are applied well.

Pagerank is a tool to rank pages in Google, so it should not be used by advertisers. Why is nobody listening I don’t know, don’t cry when your pagerank is zero because you loved to sell pagerank links…

That’s why I love to sell my $10 Google approved links.

The tool that says my blog is worth $168,232.92 is of no use as I have no clue what they are measuring (maybe they just count the amount of words :-) )

text link adsText Link Ads is another service selling links and they were the first to have a Link Value calculator, yet it has been down for more than a month though.

The advantage of Text Link Ads is that you don’t have to set a price.

The disadvantages are that Text Link Ads:

  • is much more picky than Linkworth when it comes to approving sites
  • only sells links, where Linkworth has much more on offer on their side to make money on your site :-)
  • their link value calculator is not working for a way too long time

text link ads calculator

Linkworth “Set your Link Price” conclusion

  • set the price to a value you are comfortable with
  • set your prices similar on different services: advertisers do shop around as well and will most likely buy your lowest price available
  • if you feel you are not selling enough, lower your price
  • if you feel you are sold out on the spot: higher your price
  • if you still have no idea, use the Linkworth linkquote calculator as an indication only

Make sure you also read the first part of our Linkworth Tutorial: How to earn money with Linkworth and ask more questions.

Tante Girang

tante girang

I web googled for Tante Girang and Web Google served me the above Not Save For the Office pictures. Especially the picture in the middle is way too hot for comfort.

So I thought: is my browser setting wrong? Not really, as Tante Girang gives you steamy pictures even if your browser is on Moderate Safe Search.

tante girang

This means if your children are surfing for seemingly safe words , they get served a decent amount of porn.

Who is Tante Girang

Well, bloggers that want to have a quick spike of visitors will have noticed that people are having a high interest today in this keyword phrase.

Tante is just standard Dutch for auntie but used in Indonesia, Tante Girang ends up to be a "happy auntie" : a middle aged woman with an overly excessive sex drive lusting for young toy boys.

Now if this is considered moderate safe for Google, I was wondering where do they draw the line when it comes to not showing porn on websites using Google’s contextual advertising better known as Adsense?

I don’t see the logic when it comes to tante girang compared to other other Indonesian sexy keywords like ‘memek’, ‘tetek pramugari’ and ‘gadis melayu’. The first 2 don’t show any pictures as one should expect with a web search.

‘Gadis melayu’ does show pictures in the web search but they are all decent.

All 3 above keyword phrases show decent pictures in the image section using Moderate Safe Search.

So since this doesn’t make sense compared to tante girang, most likely Google is still unaware of the true meaning of this kind of tante… Let’s see how long it takes until they correct this, knowing Google they tend to be very fast as that’s what makes their search engine so good.

Meanwhile: if you do put in the advanced image search your preference to "Use strict filtering", the search will show only text in stead of showing in your face a picture of a tante girang playing with the toy of a boy…
