A lot of people write blogs, and a large percentage of them do so in an attempt to make money off of them. Being a firm believer in multiple income streams, I plan to do the same. Going along the same rope as idols of mine such as Tim Ferriss and Tucker Max, I plan to write about my life, lifestyle design, and general douchebaggotry, and see where it takes me in the larger spectrum.

The world only knows. I'll update this with my results. And no, this will not fade away. I've been on Wickedfire for exactly a year tomorrow, and I've leared a fuckton in that time, so let's see where I can go with it. Wish me luck!

This will be 100% whitehat.

>Put in Shooting the Shit for exposure.
>Not a newbie.
>Not a stupid thread.
>No tits, fuck you, this is business.
>Shit, never mind, put in Newbie Questions because I'm a dumbass. Can someone move to STS, please?

Other than begging strangers for nickels so you can go on vacation, how do you intend to make money from this?
 
Nice. I'm rooting for you. Of course, I'll probably stomp your butt when it comes to monetizing my 2 new sites vs. you monetizing yours. :)


I kid. I kid. I'll check back to see what's working for you.

This is the shit I'm talking about. How do you expect to be taken seriously if you can't even respect other members when they come up with ideas just because they're not as good as your ideas? A forum is a community, not a fucking high school.

Go back to begging for reviews.
 
I checked it out and I think in time some great ideas will come up to help you reach your goal of getting to Vegas. Plus you're going to learn a lot by taking action.

In fact, you've done more than most people by simply setting up the blog and buying a domain name. Many people struggle just to get to that point. You're already 2 steps ahead of the game. :bowdown:

I'm not trying to disrespect you homes, but I don't see any attempt at monetization on your website. How do you expect to make money. And yeah, "begging" is a little harsh, but that's exactly what your readers will see - you asking for something for nothing. In fact, your readers might be even less sympathetic: folks at WickedFire know the game, and they know what you'e shooting for - standard visitors will just want to be entertained/educated/whatever.
