Hello and welcome to my latest blog, which will focus entirely on the use of Text Ad Exchanges for purposes of advertising effectively online (especially if on a shoe-string budget) and how to earn effectively from them and promote them to others to increase your residual profits.
First though, I would like to get into a quick background of how I got into internet marketing. Its not one of those doom and gloom and magic rainbows at the end like those corny "guru" sales-letters. Its down to earth and honest, so if you are after hype and overnight million dollars, this isn't the place to be, sorry! But if you want to hear a story that can maybe offer you some hope or staying power in your attempts at internet marketing, than please brew up a coffee and have a read.
My name is Timothy Graeme Albiez. I work full time as a storeperson/fork-lift operator in a refrigerated warehouse for Woolworths Limited, the largest food retailer in Australia. My wife of just over a year works part-time as a stewardess, in a civilian-support role to the RAAF (Royal Australian Air Force) base in Townsville, North Queensland, our tropical home. We have two children and another due in mid April.
Recently, despite the recent economic down-turn, Kirsty and I have been able to secure a home-loan and get out of the rental trap and build equity in a real asset. Its been a long road for us to travel to get to this point. We have been in seven rentals previously and almost all of them had have a disaster to befall us, with the majority of the problems stemming from private landlords and their excessive and callous greed.
In September of 2008, Kirsty suggested that maybe we could supplement our income with something generated in spare time, like on the internet. I had never given the idea much thought, and began investigating, but in true fact, I had started with failures, expensive ones, before learning the bigger picture and how to actually get that pot-of-gold that all internet marketers aspire for.
It started with Bux.to, the useless ponzi, but it sucked me in initially. Premium membership and 100 refs package. Fail #1. While I have received $40 in cash-outs, I am still yet to recoup what I invested. I intend to stop participating in that program once I have recouped my investment, just as a matter of principle.
I started using traffic exchanges, and use them incorrectly I did, making Fail #2. Promoting generic affiliate and landing pages on traffic exchanges yields very low if any results of value. The key aspect to successful promotion using traffic exchanges is to promote you, not your business.
I have made some other silly stuff-ups while building multiple streams of income online, and the most notable one left to tell here would be with Google AdSense. I actually started to build a healthy balance, and was happy to receive my first A$150. However not too long before my next payment was due my account was suspended. Google kindly reminded my to the part of their TOS that I must of not absorbed at all. And that was related to using incentive-type traffic (ie: traffic exchange, paid-to-click) to promote my pages with AdSense ads. FAIL #3.
But after all of this I still laugh out loud at the fact that I am now using a growing collective of free text ad exchange memberships to not only improve the quality of traffic to my websites and blogs but to earn nice residual income from not just promoting and earning commissions from a growing downline, but from participation in the sites themselves.
It is my sole objective through this blog to go into depth the programs I am in and the benefits of using them, building your downlines and income within them, and powering your own promotions. With every text ad exchange I offer I will be offering exclusive bonuses to those who sign up and meet certain conditions. For example I may encourage you to take the OTO and receive a cash-back from me in return for becoming a member of my downline. Even those that join at lower membership levels will still receive a reward. I believe in paying it forward and there will be alot of that happening here :)
I look forward to sharing my knowledge with all those that would hear it.
Sincerely yours, Timothy Graeme Albiez
