Ramkarthik · 1 year ago

Really waiting forward for the podcast. I have been blogging and freelance writing in the make money online niche. Though I have been successful to a certain extent, I also wanted to write about something I really like a lot. So I started a blog on my passion and it has just started to do well.

Sounds cool. Looking forward to hearing what Mr. X has to say for himself. 60k.. is that "profit" or "revenue". Obviously a huge difference. Anyone can bring in big revenue by using ppc... Profit is a whole different ball game.

Allyn Paul · 1 year ago

Good point, I think that is explained in the Young Money magazine articlea about Tim.

Jerry · 1 year ago

I agree “FOCUS ON WHAT YOU ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT HELPING PEOPLE WITH” is vital. I like doing research, so I provide people with free niche ideas on my blog. I just research some potential markets and post them, if anyone has questions, I'll answer them as soon as I can. :grin:

Nice post. I try to convey this a lot on my own blog to my readers. By the way, I know exactly who is on the cover of that magazine. I've got his book and soon to buy his DVD. To answer "sell porn make money"s question about profit vs revenue for mr X. He's talking about profit. In fact, last month his blog made a profit of over $45,000.00

Contact me if you want to know who it is, I'd be happy to point you to his site.

That reminds me of Timothy Sykes, the kid who turned an insane profit in the stock market (lucky son of a gun! :razz: ). That's definitely true though, you have to diversity and stay away from the whole flow of things if you want ot make real money.

However, that's not to say you can't make a bundle in what's hot. Being in a hot industry can make you a very rich person, even if you are doing exactly what everyone else is doing. Remember: the trend is your friend ;)

I reckon it's Timothy Sykes as well. I had a look at his blog - http://www.timothysykes.com/ I guess the advertising and sales section of his site bring in a lot of money.

That is exactly what we have been doing. Not bringing in 45K per mo, but still doing well for a single niche. I really don't think people should be running a MMO blog unless they are MMO outside of it. Once you have some success outside of it, you can then teach others and make some income in the MMO. Just be real, honest, and helpful.

Udderly amazing post and I cown't wait for the transcript.

Can't wait for the podcast. Following your passion as a way of life sounds like a life well-spent.

Steve · 1 year ago

Nice post. Sounds really interesting. Look forward to the interview.
I totally agree about the passion part, you've got to be 'into' what you do or you've got a hill to climb. That doesn't mean you can only work within a niche you love. For example your passion could be building niche blogs for example. It is the researching, setting up and monetising of niche blogs that is the thing that floats your boat.

The thing is to think about what you are into, not just at a detailed level but dare I say at a conceptual or 'meta' level. That sounds lame, but for example I call myself a 'leanaholic' and it the learning of new ideas and information that floats my boat. With leaning as my 'big thing' I am motivated to do a wide variety of things as long as I feel I am learning cool new stuff.

This is great that you said it. I have always said that in the end, with my blogging at least, it has to be about the content. At least for my own integrity. I gave away my passions for years. Now I want to earn something back for a doing what I love to do. For me, it is still and will always be about the content. The rest is just icing on the cake. :lol:

Kpem · 1 year ago

WOW! the light just came on. “FOCUS ON WHAT YOU ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT " Although I have been setting up my blog to talk about what I am passionate about, I just realized I am more passionate about spending money. Maybe I can start a blog about my spending money! All kidding aside, I live the life I am passionate about and when I unveil what I am working on, in a month or two, I will reach my goal.

The COW site is the best! I really mean it. Of all I have studied this is the first study that has touched me. I just wish while I was in school I had had a teacher touch me the way you have.

I'm curious what your Mr. X has to say about blogging about a subject you love but to an audience that is renowned for being cheap! I've found that following my passion doesn't generally lead to being able to make an income - so I'd challenge Mr X to give as many details as possible.

Ben · 1 year ago

Is this the real Mr. X (ie. the Adwords expert)? If not, I am guessing this is the car blog guy in Australia :wink:

John Cow · 1 year ago

Nope not either of those guys, actually I just felt like saying Mr X for the fun of it, there is no real reason to hide is identity, I just wanted to to until Monday. I will give you a hint though, because I really do not care if you figure out who it is... his first name is Tim.

James · 1 year ago

Hmm, his name is Tim and he featured on the front of young money - instead of guessing I'll go take a look.

Normal Joe · 1 year ago

I agree, you've got to be interested and have a passion for what you write. Like Garry Conn says...pick something you can write about without having to do tons of research!

Not that you can't research, but it shouldn't be the bulk of what you write, you should be able to produce content without doing tons of studying. Basically, know about what you are writing, or have a passion...yeah, you already said that and I'm just going the long way around.

Okay, great post! I'm done :mrgreen:

JR's Internet Marketing Strate · 1 year ago

Great advice! I completely agree, often times you see blogs about MMO or AM and it is so obvious that this is someone who really does not have any clue, and is a total newbie. It is so important to start in this business in a niche you know, and really care about.
Thanks,
JR

Bob · 1 year ago

Hmmm.. dunno John Cow.. there's a fine line between confidence and arrogance, and he Sykes jumped that line long ago... and paid handsomely for it. Not only that, but Tim Sykes is kind of a douche. If you're going to talk about how much money this guy made, you really ought to have a disclaimer at the bottom talking about how much money he lost.

Dr. Dre · 1 year ago

Hello John Cow,

Let me start by saying I really enjoy your blog, the attitude, the way you do your business, it is like a refreshing glass of milk!

My question for Mr. X would be this. What advice would you give to someone who has been working with the internet for over 10 years, has yet to fully invest himeself in creating money online (aside from creating web sites for others!)? The truth is I want to create money online by sharing my passions, but I have been blocked for so long! I've gathered all the information about how to do it that there's nothing left to gather... It's like I'm afraid to make the step forward for fear of failure or that the process will be too hard.

I judge myself harshly because I think I should have done it by now. But I have to face reality and know that I just need to start. My plan is to fully use your book, John Cow, to the fullest extent. What have you got for me Mr. X?

Thanks for your help!

Dre

I started blogging in the make money online niche. Then after a month or so, I jumped off it partly because I myself wasn't making any money (I was a newbie) and the niche seemed so boring. So, I started a blogging tips blog. Although, I like writing about making money online, I plan to do it in a "Young Entrepreneur Blog" not a "make money online" one.

Evan · 1 year ago

My question is: how much do the different niches affect what you do? What works for MMO may not work for health (my blog topic).

We need to make the plan our own, undoubtedly. But then how do I know which stuff to take and which to leave? I hope the answer to the above is also part of the answer to this.

“FOCUS ON WHAT YOU ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT HELPING PEOPLE WITH”

That really resonates with me. When thinking about starting my blog I wondered what I'd want to share with people that wouldn't feel like a chore to write articles about.... As a personal trainer it naturally followed to do a fitness blog. I haven't really started to monetize yet, but just writing the articles and hopefully helping/inspiring readers just feels so great already. Thanks so much for this blog. You help your readers probably more than you know.

Allyn, it is all about automation. there is not enough time in a day to manage growing online assets. for authority-type sites, you have to post every day, even better - few times a day. and for niche sites - you have to have a lot of them to make any significant income. Try to find ways to automate your business. good luck!

The only thing I can say is you must have to have a plan in place to succeed online and even in any other venture.

Also, the most important thing is you must be passionate about whatever plan you are going to follow. This is the real ingredient to being successful.

I totally agree with this although I have done the opposite. I was creating niche sites but realised my real passion was in writing about making money online. So just recently I stopped working on my niche websites (well almost) and started working on my blog. I love writing about this sort of stuff and I think it really makes a difference in the end to both me and my readers. The niche websites were just something to do to make money but the blog is something I really enjoy doing.
