Would you ever consider using a free blogger blog to try out an arbitrage idea?

Yeah. It doesn't matter what the site looks like or what blog/cms you are using, it's all about laying out your ads to make them look like it's part of the content, and keeping the traffic very niche specific.

Obviously you get asked lots of questions about specific techniques, but tell us about your overall project strategies, in terms of projected revenues for new projects, number of sites per project, pages per site, etc.

Not sure what you mean.. try simplifying your question to follow the lightning round rules.

Whats your daily routine? (how do u get shit done!?)
Click to expand...

Most of my day consists of heavy research and networking. I am on the phone cutting and creating new deals everyday for hours. Sometimes when I really need to get annoying shit done, I take one of my Adderalls in the morning, and I work like a madman nonstop for hours straight. I don't do routines, because I suck at them.

How do you get most of your backlinks to your niche wordpress sites? Ask for them? article submissions? Directories?
Click to expand...

All of the above actually. Getting them from niche relevant blog mentions also does a good job.

Do your cajillion niche wordpress sites have their own url or do you use subdomians?
Click to expand...

Both, sorta. We try and stuff as many niches into a bunch of domains by using directories, not subdomains.
 
Do you do the normal SEO stuff on your arbitrage sites in hopes that eventually the traffic will come without paying for it, or just do the PPC on them?

Haha, sorry! I had these ready to fly in notepad. You answered two of my questions with that reply. Could you answer this one?

- Do the amount of "required feilds" have a big effect on which programs you choose?
Click to expand...

Depends how we plan on promoting it. If it pays on a quick 1 form with under 7 fields, chances are we'll push it hard. It also depends on the payout for it. If it's only $3 or less, chances are very good we won't even bother.

Nope, just PPC. The beauty of the arbitrage factor is that your site doesn't have to follow any of the seo rules. You can make it however which way you like, because your site becomes profitable within the first day or so of arbitrage. Or should at least.
 
Do you ever call up companies and sell them advertising space on your sites that have lots of traffic?

Nope, I just let the ad networks deal with that. If I want to target a particular advertiser, I'll get on the horn with a rep from a cpm company and try and get them to have their sales team secure something. I haven't dealt with this route in a while, but I don't see why you couldn't do that either.

So it would look like -- www. main-niche.com/subniche/ etc etc ?
 
If you were to suddenly lose all your money, partners, contacts and eastern european/asian outsourced workers and had to start again alone & from scratch, what would you do to earn money on the internet and how much do you think you would have earned after the first three months ?
 
Better question. Have you become much more ambitious after numerous years of AM? And what personal goals have you achieved and are proud of?

I'd probably use my research skills and find myself at the Warrior Forum, and make an ebook to push to them that would sell for $197 with promises to financial freedom. I think I'd make a nice amount of money from those guys, because they would buy anything as long as there are bonuses and empty promises attached.
 
Could you show an example of a good PPC arbitrage landing page? Not necessarily one of yours... but maybe one that you have run into or know of.

I think I become more and more hungry to be more and more profitable, rather than having it decrease and get lazy. The only real personal goal that I like is realizing that I love what I do and now know that this was my true calling. For years I wasn't sure where I fit in and if this was something I could call my career, but thankfully since Jan I've realized, this is it. It's nowhere else but up.

Do you have your own custom cms you have perfected over time OR do you use a WordPress solution with all the hottest plugins which you can install with one click? (for MFA/PPC sites)
Click to expand...

All of our content generating and page generating software is based off the stability and ease of customization of WordPress. I consider it a CMS even though some people don't. My partner got me really hooked on it because he's a huge fan of it.
