Yeah, the internet is a long-term game, especially now. It is only going to get more competitive and it is only going to get more specific.

The reason something like GLL succeeds is because Chris is already very successful in the areas that he writes in. He has more success with women than 99% of men. Since he writes so honestly and we know he is truly an expert, his articles are gold and this site took off.

If you aren't willing to spend a month to test an offer or a business, then I doubt you would be willing to do what Chris did with GLL - write high quality articles all the time, not expecting to make a dime (I think his only goal was to make like $500 in a year or something), only to make a little bit of money after many months.

If you wanted to do the "write what I'm interested about and create good content" expect to spend months of hard work without too much of a return on your investment, if any at all if your stuff isn't good enough.


I actually have already written as much content as is on this site, and not expected to make any money from it, but just for the love of doing it, and I've had a lot of people read my stuff. I never made any money from that, because I didn't have any way to monetize it. To me the real "value" is not the content here, but the knowledge of obscure things to sell like all the various drug products that are marketed here.

I do about $50K right now. I lost $3k my first 3 months and I'm growing so $100K isn't far off. Paid traffic to affiliate offers is scalable which is why I recommend it. I know of guys who do what I do who make over $1M annually. (think about how much traffic you can buy from Facebook, find the right ads and offers and there's huge potential to bank)

I would just recommend you get started on whatever you want to do and make sure you take it seriously like a business. You can do that by concentrating on your numbers. For example, if you have a blog, how much money does 1 unique visitor make for you? If the answer is $0, then you don't have a business, you have a hobby. If you think like that, you'll avoid wasting time on stuff that will never make you any money.

How did you learn paid traffic? Any sources you learned from, or did you just experiment with trial-and-error? What are all the platforms you use?

I was told recently that with FB ads I might get banned eventually since they don't allow medical diagnosis sites, and they might assume since mine is depression that I'm giving people a diagnosis and shut me down.

Mostly through trial and error. Warrior Forum has some very basic info (look for top rated threads in the PPC forum) to get you started, also Wicked Fire, and look up some affiliate marketer blogs. There's a lot of BS out there as well - what I've found is it all simply comes down to testing traffic sources, landing pages, and offers. You need a good tracker. Eventually you'll figure out a few things that work.

I'm on my 3rd facebook account with 1 getting banned and 1 they just stopped approving any of my ads. I got a warning yesterday so hopefully I don't get banned again. It happens so you just roll with it and create a new account. Honestly I think you'll be alright as long as your ads and landing page don't suggest they'll be getting a medical diagnosis or anything else FB doesn't like. They're actually a lot easier to work with in the last few months ever since they banned all dating ads.

My dad has experience with FB and says they are a huge pain in the ass. Most of the big players have fake accounts ready to go if they get banned because it is inevitable. Even if you aren't breaking the rules they will just randomly ban people sometimes. That being said if you know how to play the game you can still use it to make a lot of money.
