Day Three

Hello again.
I’ve just spent the last twenty minutes setting up my adwords campaign that I researched yesterday. I’m going to keep it running for about a week to see on a low budget just to see if I get much of a response. I’ll be sure to keep you posted.
Not sure what else I can do at the moment. Was given an ebook by another mybloglog.com member called ‘The Affiliate Masters Course’ which I am going to read through. You can check out his marketing blog here. It’s a good read and I recommend you give him a visit.
More later…
8.00pm
Had a busy day so not really done much. Just going to check the latest on my adwords campaign. Hold on a sec…
Right, since this morning its had 151 impressions and 5 clicks for a CTR of 3.31%.
Haven’t sold anything yet though as far as I can tell. Like I said, I will keep it running for a week and see how it goes.
I’ve spent most of my day doing additional research and visiting mybloglog.com. Met a couple of real nice people with interesting sites. One is a lady called EJ who has a blog here. She’s very nice and her blog is similar to mine. I’ll be keeping a check on that one. And the other is a guy who calls himself esofthub and has created a site called FreeAdLists which is a great site where anyone can post up a free classified ad. It’s a nice site that’s well run and should also be worth a visit.
As well as updating this journal I’m going to start posting up reviews of all the ebooks I own (good and bad). It will help me sift through the mountain of information I’ve got on my computer so I can store all the good ones in a seperate file for quick reference. The rest I’ll just put on a disc and store in a drawer somewhere in case I ever want to go through them again.
That’s the trouble you see. I must have hundreds of ebooks and some of them could help me out of this financial rut I’m in. But having read them all and tried to digest so much information it’s quite likely that I have forgotten some of the good stuff. Going through them all again one at a time will be a lengthy process but one I will enjoy. And hopefully it will help others steer clear of the rubbish ebooks out there and save their money. I’ve also got some free ebooks on my computer somewhere which I will upload to this blog at some point. Just in case someone finds them useful.
There’s a lot I want to do with this blog which worries me a little. I started it because I wanted to look at the processes I have in place for making money online but it looks like running this blog could take up most of my valuable ‘money making’ time.
Having said that, I don’t really know what else I can be doing at the moment to make money other than running small pay per click campaigns. EJ has pointed me in the direction of a couple of ‘earn while you surf’ type websites which I will give a try. She’s making a few bucks per week from it - and every dollar counts right?
Probably more later…
1.45am
I should have been in bed about an hour ago. I have to go back to work tomorrow after the Easter break so have to be up early. But I’ve been sucked in to the blog community at mybloglog.com and somehow time just disappeared.
A nice guy there called Tom Boyd who runs a website management blog kindly pointed out that the comments on this blog are broken. I had no idea and will try and fix this tomorrow. Cheers Tom.
Off to bed now.
Goodnight all.
