I’ve been doing a lot of work for clients lately, but I’m also doing my best to build up some great, passive income. Of course, I couldn’t pass up the Christmas season since it went so well last year! I’ve now been at this for two years, and couldn’t be happier. What other “job” lets you stay home with your toddler (with one on the way!), working with people from all over the world, and getting passive income too?

Part of my Christmas strategy involves toys again. Shocker — just one site I set up in the middle of November (read: less than a month ago) has generated over 1K in revenue. That’s pretty sweet, if you ask me. Other Christmas sites are doing pretty well too. I started late, so I’m happy with their earnings so far. Keep in mind that I’m up to my ears in client work, so all of these sites I’ve done for myself are quick little 1 pagers with some autoblog content, as well as reviews pulled from Amazon.

I really have to get back to work (what, doesn’t blogging count as work?), but here is a quick run down of what is working for me if you’re trying to get some fast Christmas revenue.

1. Register a keyword rich domain name (.com, .org, or .net)

2. Write 1 page of highly optimized content (original content)

3. SEO the blog (I’m using Wordpress for these quickie sites)

4. Install PhpBay and ReviewAzon

5. Add some bulk posts to automatically post related products using ReviewAzon + set up PhpBay to add to the template

6. Add some autoblog content to pull from article directories, YouTube, and news sites (like Google News and Yahoo News)

7. Add quick Contact page and Sitemap

8. Do a little bit of random promotion

9. Monitor and add to over time, when I get the time

I’m incorporating a lot of IPK SEO strategies from last year too, by the way. It’s working well, and I’m seeing SEO results, despite the fact that I started so late.

Ho, Ho, Ho!

Hi guys,

I wanted to write a post detailing my experience with Info Product Killer. A Few of you have e-mailed me about my article marketing results, but I had to put that on hold. One reason was because I have been working on my IPK results, and another is because I’ve been ghostwriting a lot more than normal for the last month or so!

In fact, I was only really able to put in about 1 week of real effort to my IPK sites — which is why I think the results have been amazing.

I’ve earned around $2800 with IPK since the beginning of November! It was that first week of November that I put in most of the effort, and now have around 13 IPK sites. Now, I have spent around $500 on Adwords costs, with about $130 of that being on a keyword I accidently let “run away” when it shouldn’t have. That’s some great return on investment!

I attribute my success with this method to the amazing SEO strategies, it being so near Christmas, and to the great call to action the program has you implement.

The fact that I was able to earn so much with so little effort and so few “mini” sites means that this will be a HUGE part of my business plan for ‘09. In fact, I plan on building a new mini site every other day, and focusing on my “mother” sites as well in several different physical product niches.

If you’re looking for a great business model to follow that you literally cannot go wrong with…this is it!

UPDATE 1/1/09: My totals for the holiday season were over $3100, less with around $700 PPC. I’m very happy with these results, and am currently observing new trends to cash in on with IPK now that the Christmas rush is over I LOVE this product and it is STILL my main business plan for this new year.

This Books Free review is definitely a positive one! You might know that I LOVE to research. I could research all day long if you’d let me – and often do! The problem is that there is so much junk on the Internet. You never know what information is true and what will lead you astray. That’s why I prefer REAL books.

The problem with “real” books is that they can be really expensive. I know – you should see my Amazon.com bill. I swear they should give me a huge discount for blowing all my money there I’m finally wising up, and seeing the need to condense my expenses for research.

That lead me to find Books Free. Have you ever heard of Netflix? Books Free works much in the same way. You pay a flat monthly fee and you get a certain number of paperback books sent to your house. It’s also free shipping both ways.

Yes, I could just go to the library, but being able to search for books on niche topics from the comforts of home is a great thing in my book (pun intended). They have a great selection, fast service, and low prices.

I’m also saving tons of money and have access to great reading for marketing, research, and FUN purposes. I can’t recommend Books Free highly enough. If you want to start doing quality research that isn’t based off of the same old junk that’s elsewhere online, you should get a subscription. I’ll be keeping mine for a long, long time – just don’t tell Amazon.

I also have a special deal for you (shhh, don’t tell!)

Okay, one of my goals with this blog is to help moms find things that really work. There is no need to fuss around with methods of earning online that are ineffective. Trust me…I’ve dealt with plenty of them since I’ve been marketing online! It’s amazing what junk is out there.

In fact, it can be really discouraging. I sometimes feel like throwing in the towel when I work hard at something and nothing ever comes of it. This time, however, I’m going to recommend a product that is so amazing I can’t imagine anyone trying it and not succeeding.

Secret Affiliate Code by Craig Beckta is the golden ticket I’m talking about!

I’ve known Craig from forums for a while, and was delighted to see that he had a major release of a book. He had some really heavy hitters promoting for him when he released this book a few months ago. I bought my copy out of loyalty and set it aside.

Then, there was an affiliate promotion popping up that I knew I didn’t have a chance in because the other affiliates had much bigger lists than I did. I remembered the promises Craig makes on his sales page, and decided to give it a try.

Lo and behold, I put the method to work (it took between 4-6 hours…I didn’t time myself and waited nervously. I mean, this was a big promotion and I thought I didn’t have a chance. Here is a screenshot of the results (with the name of the product and transaction number blurred out for obvous reasons)

I am very impressed with the Secret Affiliate Code method, and I can attest that it does work. Yes, you will have to DO the work. But it doesn’t take much. Earning $436.50 on a launch I felt I had little chance in is certainly not too shabby.

I definitely suggest you check out Secret Affiliate Code for yourself. Don’t let it just sit around like I did at first, do what it says and you will be richly rewarded!

*Update*  I still need to go through all of the material, but Craig has just released Secret Affiliate Code 2. I recieved a review copy and it’s even more comprehensive than the first.  I’ll release a review once I’ve had a chance to go through it all, but you can pick it up here now
