IMOD: Internet Marketing Obsessive Disorder
I just experienced Internet Marketing Obsessive Disorder IMOD and yes it was odd.
You see I became obsessed with a Warrior Forum thread. That thread involved a website that had traffic in abundance. This was more than enough to trigger my IMOD syndrome.
Especially since i have been in my room best part of 4 days swotting for a project management exam.
So I became possessed by this thread and the delusional concept that I had discovered a secret traffic generation method.
A method involving expired domains no less.
And so my IMOD led me into a surreal world where I would tap the power of these expired domains and become the wealthy owner of a very large list in a few weeks.
I was delusional of course and have experienced similar IMOD episodes many times in the past. Never does IMOD syndrome involve the same delusional fantasy more than once.
Once the syndrome has manifested itself along a certain delusional tract one is permanently cured of that particular expression of the illness.
I am aware that others suffer from IMOD worse than myself. Personally I have not spent more than a few hundred dollars at a time on an IMOD delusion.
Nor have I developed multiple products while suffering from the disease.
May you all be healed. Good day.
Blogrush is defunct
Yep Reese has pulled the plug on blogrush.
It was a super launch too. Apparently clicks just kept going down so he decided to can the whole thing. Well I guess i need to find some new widgets for track-n-test then. My friendfeed widget has stopped working too.
On another note I am testing expired domain traffic for several weeks. I am aware of its potential but its gotta be purchased at the right price.
Google places adsense on parked domains but there seems to be no way apart from content filtering urls to exclusively post on them. Thats too much effort so I am going with third party traffic brokers. Googles prices are non competitive in this arena anyway.
I am doing a small order initially and ramp it up. This could be a great way to multivariate optimize pages prior to spending on PPC.
I’ll be paying 1c per click.
