$0/month to $500/month in 6 months without spend a single penny

This is about one of my friend who is doing his automobile engineering and is still a student. He contacted me about 6 months back asking whether he can earn money on the net without spending a single penny. I thought a lot about it and this was my reply to him:

Hi *******,
Ya, surely you can do that. But I think it will take much more time to do that. May be an year or two. Take following steps, if you don’t want to spend any money:
  1. Create a blog on http://www.blogspot.com on the subject of your choice (please choose a subject which interests you).
  2. Use some neat and clean template and put your Google Adsense code on it to earn the dollars.
  3. Give one hour every day to your blog and try to write two GOOD posts (current events, news, reviews etc) on the topic.
  4. Submit each of your post to all the famous bookmarking sites like digg, netscape etc. (this will take extra 10 mins)
  5. Go everyday to http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=65 and see the NEW DIRECTORY ANNOUNCEMENTS in the section. Submit your site to two new directories every day free of cost.
  6. Register with some forums in your niche and put your website URL in your signature. Use the forum everyday for half an hour and interact with people in the forum
  7. When you start getting some traffic from bookmarking sites or forum threads or search engines, you will be making some money out of it in Google Adsense.
  8. When you get your first $10, start hunting for cheap links for your blog. Remember to get ONLY related links. Please remember to put all yourmoney back into the site (promoting it) for quite some long time. Then will only it will rise.
  9. Get more and more links when you get more and more money. That will give you more and more traffic. Which means more and more money.
So these are the steps I think I can tell you. Do let me know if you actually plan to follow them. :)
adsense earningSo the main points here were to get some free traffic first, which will make you some money, use that money to get some paid links, which will increase your traffic further.
Yesterday I was discussing with him like how is his project going. So he showed me his Google Adsense for the last month (6th month). In his 6th month he made around $502. But he has put in all the money he has earned back into his blogs promotion.
Today his 300+ post strong blog (niche: cars specs and news) gets around 1200 uniques per day and make him around $500/month. He says, he still does not need any money right now, so he will be using all his money back into his blog for next 6 months.:)
Well done.

10 Tips for Link Baiting

Link baiting, according to me, is a process of creating such acontent which is sure to receive lot of attention (and hence, lots of backlinks) from various people. It may be some sort of tips, some breaking new, some conflicting comments by somebody or any such content.
Recently, Andy Hagans gave a presentation in a SEO meet on link baiting. Here are some of the things which I picked up from there. I hope it would be useful to you as well. 
You can try here to submit a backlink with nautic


1. A great “title” for your link baiting article is half the work done. Please note that people like titles like “10 ways to… “, “How to do…”, “Ultimate guide to…”, “XYZ survival guide”. So use them in your title to grab attention.
2. Quality of the article should be not just fine but it should be really great.
    this is the sample: Nresources

3. Your article should be good looking. What do we mean by a good looking article? Your article should have some good colors used. It should have some pictures to grab the attention of the reader. Bold important heading (sort of summary) so that people who are in hurry can just go through quickly (called scanning the article).
4. Generously link to other websites from your link baiting article. Why so? People would like to bookmark such a page which has links to all those sites providing information on one specific topic.
5. Add social bookmarking websites (like digg, slashdot, technorati, reddit, netscape, del.ico.us, stumbleupon and others as well) links at the bottom of your article. If a person comes to your article from one social bookmarking website, he/she may like to add it to other places as well, if you provide this one-click adding.
6. Inform bloggers of the same industry about your article. It is handy to keep an xls file for information of all blogs in your industry with their owner’s name, blog url and email address. Send personal email to each of them. Just tell them that you have written this article and thought to let you know that you might be interested in this. Don’t ask for a link back.
7. Create a good title and description to be put on each of the social bookmarking site.

8. Launch your link baiting article. The very important step in launching your article is the timing. Please choose an appropriate time when you think most of the audiences will be online at that time. Secondly, remember to put your article on all of the social bookmarking sites (digg, slashdot, technorati, reddit, netscape, del.ico.us, stumbleupon and others as well) in one go. If you post on just few of them in one go, then there is a possibility that some person pick it up and put if on other networking site with not so good title and description. So the better thing is that you yourself do this work with good title and description.
link bait gust9. Get additional Traffic and create a gust of traffic. Try to get additional traffic at that same time from some forums (making a post or adding link in your signature, but not spamming) or your own other websites. Try to create a huge gust of traffic in a short period of time. This will help ranking you on front pages of social bookmarking sites, which itself will create another gust of fresh traffic.
10. What to expect and what not to expect from link baiting article traffic
  • Don’t expect a good click through rate from this traffic on adsense or other banners. Click through rate will be very less.
  • Expect many quality organic backlinks to your article from other blogs or forums with different titles and descriptions.
  • Don’t expect short-term search engine ranking advantage.
  • You will surely get better ranking for your overall website in long-term.
  • Expect brand exposure for your website (which will lead to mindshare quickly). This brand exposure can ease your visitors in buying from your website.
  • You have taken your time to write quality content for that article, which will again help you in long term as search engines need quality content on the websites.
10. Rinse and repeat. sample with Nresources

My Link Building Strategy


www.nautic-resources.com
Make Money on Twitter
I run quite a few websites. Many of them rank number one on Google and other search engines. Most of them are at least in top 20 of search engines. The credit to these good ranking goes to:
  1. Good and unique content on website
  2. Strong link building strategy

Content is king, everybody says and knows. So I m not taking this topic right now. Let me talk about creating a strong link building strategy. How and when to get what types of links? This is the topic I am going to address. But instead of making it as a lecture, I am just going to present how do I do it.

This is the process of my website development and link building:
  • Day 1: Buy a domain which is good for the keyword you are looking to create a website.
  • Day 2: Create one page website (around 500 words) based on your keyword(s) and give around 3 to 4 links to wikipedia’s pages (related to your keyword). These wiki links will help search engines to assign a website-category to your site. Then get one backlink (I normally get this link from one of my own directory) for this site. Then forget about this site for a month. (in this time, you can start thinking on your next keyword site.)
  • Day 30 (After one month): Expand the website to 5 pages of content and get 4 more links, one each from a directory, a blog post, a social networking site and a regular site. Then again forget this site for a month.
  • Day 60 (after two months): This is the time when I start working on the website to make it 100 page website. I make sure that I have to get one back-link for each of my page I am creating. So after this phase is completed, I have just 5 links to my homepage and 1 link each to my internal pages. This internal pages link prevent your pages going into supplemental index of google.
  • Day 90 (after 3 months): This is the time when I start my FREE directory submissions. I follow all the new-directory announcement sections in various webmaster forums for new directories. These links are the easiest to get and for free. Other than these, I submit to around 1000 free directory list. It takes around 10 days of work.
  • Day 120: (after 4 months): At this time, I start looking for 3-way link exchanges. I do it in two ways. First one, the old regular method, by emailing the webmaster (but with very much personal touch). Secondly, on webmaster forums like Digital Point. I avoid doing reciprocal link exchange.
  • Day 150 (after 5 months): I add around 100 more pages to my site with 1 link each for every new page. Yes, this takes a lot of time but is really worth it. This is the point where I do around 20 article submissions. for backlinks to the homepage.
  • Day 180 (after 6 months): This is the time when I start spending money on the site to get links. I start submitting to paid directories (including good ones like: yahoo.com, botw.org, addalink.org, alivedirectory.com etc.). I start buying paid content-embedded links. I strictly avoid getting any site-wide links (except for directories, which is a different story all together).
This is normally the time when my site gets around of sandbox and start earning me some good amount. At this point, I add this site to around 20 of my own directories (with all different TITLE and description). I also add at-least 20 of my internal pages (different pages to different directories) from this site to each of my 20 directories (total of 400 links). These directories of mine are unknown to general public and is sole purpose of getting links to my own sites.
So, this is the time when my site is running full fledged. After this I CONSTANTLY keep adding the content as well as back-links.

After this, I make sure that 50% of the profit from the site should go back into the link building for the website. When the website has reached top 3 in search engines, it automatically starts getting all those .gov or .edu etc. links, so I reduce my budget from 50% to around 25% and keep the 75% to myself.
So to achieve the full strength, my sites takes at least one year.
Google says, I need time to put your site on top, I give it enough time.
So thats my website development and link building strategy. What is your strategy? Please comment and do let me know.
Edit: Well, these days it has become quite easy to set up your link building strategy by using networks like TNX where you can decide how many unique links to build over time.
