• About

  Hi, my name is Clayton. I spent one year of my life doing AffiloBlueprint and learning how to make money online. Now I'm going on a trip with my girlfriend to Thailand for 2 months from September 28 to December 7 for a much-deserved vacation. This blog is where I share travel stories and internet marketing advice.

Possessed

These days, it seems like I’m absolutely possessed.  I seem to be thinking non-stop about my affiliate sites.  I’m churning out four or five articles each day, on top of doing a little article spinning, and a few off-page SEO tactics.

Chalk it up to the fact that I have no income so to speak right now.  Maybe that plus the fact, that I’m starting to see the actual potential I have for earning a full-time living off this stuff.  As Tony Robbins would say, I have associated enough pain to not doing this, and loads of pleasure to being successful at this.  I’ll be damned… maybe there’s some truth to all this personal development stuff anyway!

Back in the day, I used to play around with trading stocks online.  I wasn’t very good at it, but I did make a few extra bucks on some winners (Google being the best, by far).  Though that account has lost about half it’s value with the recession and all, I will probably be closing it out to get some money to hold me over for awhile.  I mean what else is that money doing?  It’s time to leverage it and move it to a place where it can be put to better use.

I might even try outsourcing some of the more tedious parts of website creation, such as article spinner.  Article spinning is the worst thing ever.  After about an hour or so of it, I actually start to go a little crazy.  So that’s the first thing to outsource.

My first website is still playing in the sandbox, and my second one is about 2/3 complete and not indexed yet.  Things are going well.

  I feel the same way, all I think about is how to get my blog up to speed with good content and high traffic. I am almost done with my first draft of my ebook but I’m not sure I like it but I’m very critical of myself. The good thing is I’m getting things done.

  @Ty, Wow! You’re really digging through my old posts today! I guess I still feel extremely driven these days. Probably because I’m right on the verge of making more money than I spend on rent, bills, and all that. Once I can start pulling in a little bit more… it’s time to party and have some fun!
