The other day I mentioned about an experiment that I am doing, and here is my secret “how I made $10+ per day with brand new blog”.
I was looking at my google analytics for 1 full month, and noticed that my blog was hit with keyword “ipod Touch Tricks”.
After short period of time of research on that keyword I decided to open free blog account named ipodtouchtricks. Next thing I researched is about what am I going to write about, since I own iPod Touch as well I had few of my tricks, and I started first with that.
Later on I found couple of interesting websites and blogs that offered some cool tricks I have learned as well.
I rewrite those tricks in my own words add some pictures that I found and posted to my blog.
After couple of posts, I created feedburner account for my new blog, just so I can track how many people are going to subscribe to my new feeds.
I also added my blog to google analytics so I can keep tracking how many visitors I get, what keywords are being used, to access my new blog, where do the people come from and how long do they stay on ipod touch tricks blog.
Now comes the time of public share, I registered my blog to search engines through www.submitexpress.com that is one of my favorite tools to submit my blogs to multiple search engines.
I was patient and guess what? After only 24 hours my blog ranked no.1 for keyword “ipod touch tricks” I was amazed from results I got from google analytics.
First day right from the start I got over 300 visitors
Second day google rank me no.3 for keyword “ipod touch tricks” so I posted another 2 articles and bump me up to no.1 again.
Third day I found this cool iphone blogger theme and I used it as iPod Touch Theme since both of devices look similar.
Fourth day my feeds ware up to 35 subscribers and over 800+ visitors!
Day 6 which is today my blog was visited over 2000 times and I had over 2600 page views. My blog is still no.4 ranked, but I added some new posts yesterday so I am interested to see if I will bump up to no.1 rank again! This will tell me, if I post at least ones a day, my blog will rank higher then the rest of the websites? Even though my PR is 0
Looking at the status of my earnings from yesterday I my revenue shows $36.14. If you notice at the top of my ipod touch blog I added widgetbucks banner that brought me about $6 or more, I haven’t seen the full report of my revenue yet.
Some questions you might be interested in:
How much time did I spend on my new blog?
Ruffly 5 hours all together.
How much did it cost me?
Funny but true $0
How can I do what you did?
Use your blog as your guide to make money, do analysis of your top keywords, open free blog at blogger.com and follow my steps and don’t use same keyword as I did, multiply your blog by 10 and you might earn more then $400 a week that is $2.000 a month!
One important thing I got to tell you!
Don’t use keywords that you don’t know NOTHING about, first it will take you longer to do a research, second your blog experiment might fail because of it, third visitors can notice you have no clue, fourth don’t copy-paste text from other resources, write it in your own words.
Here is the google analytics graph please note that by switching my themes I forgot to add google analytics code so I lost couple of visitors on this report.Next week I will update this graph and we can both compare this week statistics vs. next week statistics.

Great post! Keep em coming.
Congrats to your success. You have iPod Touch? I was trying to win it on Problogger’s giveaway. It sounds like awesome device.
[...] that people were using to find his site and created another sub niche…and now he’s earning $10/day from the niche site! This is a great variation on the technique’s I wrote about in my Case Study [...]
Very nice experiment. Do you care to expose your keywords, title, and description with us? What else did you do to generate traffic?
@Alex: I could expose but it will a lot of them. I can tell you that ipod touch tricks is one of the top one’s. As well as sarah vonderhaar for some odd reason lol. I know her personally from ANTM(America next top model)
Great article. I found you through the Problogger site and have been enjoying this site. Lots of informative info. What’s to loose but a few hours of time on an expirament like this.
@Royston: True, I spend about 3 hours well now more, because i am so into that lol.
I mean even if you lose 3 hours or less and don’t have any visitors, at least you had hope and fun doing it and it did not cost you anything but time.
Congrats on your successful experiment. We need this kind of informative post to let us know that anyone can earn money from the Internet.
