Back in the heady days of ‘anything goes’, Internet marketing forum spamming was all the rage. The forum owners didn’t like it and put steps in place to stop it. Those steps worked, but the traffic is still there for the siphoning. The only change is that you first have to
Most forums require you to have multiple posts before you can have a footer.
The footer is where you put your links to your money pages.
The great thing about this is that when you qualify for the footer, it goes on all your posts, not just the new ones, so the qualifying posts become valuable as well.
Building up your qualifying posts involves answering relevant questions about the product you want to promote and providing real, honest, valuable answers without naming the product.
Most people can create enough posts in a day or so, meaning that you can have live humans landing on your pages in less than a week. Then, all it takes is an hour or so a day on multiple forums to get a steady flow of people arriving where you want them to go.
A big tip that should be obvious is to ensure the forums you’re posting on are active, have many members, and rank for the niche you are promoting.
ChatGPT or Bard will happily give you a list of forums in your niche.
The Google Keyword Planner tool, or any other keyword tool, will tell you the volume of traffic and the main ranking keywords for each forum.
Another big tip is to use an AI tool to compile enough content regarding the niche to put into a PDF or a Google Doc to use as your front-end page.
If it’s a useful resource, the forum owner and subscribers will thank you for the content, even if it includes a link to a sales page.
You could collect email addresses via the Google doc if you wish.
People are happier to give you their email address if you have already given them some useful content.
Try it.
You might find it’s far easier than anything else you might have tried.
If you want to build an email list from this method it would be useful to create an email sequence for the subscribers as well.
Any AI tool can do this for you, so you have something in place that you can rewrite later.
Free platforms that you can use for this are LeadsLeap and Systeme.
Both have a free level, both have built-in autoresponders, both have easy-to-use page builders, the funnel builder in Systeme is easier to use, and LeadsLeap has built-in traffic.
Today I have spent several hours cleaning one of my old websites. There were over 35,000 subscribers and over 10,000 blog posts, all with a gambling theme. As I cleaned out the dross I wondered about the motivation for these hacks. We all know they are sending traffic through their affiliate links to the gambling sites.
Today I have spent several hours cleaning one of my old websites.
There were over 35,000 subscribers and over 10,000 blog posts, all with a gambling theme.
As I cleaned out the dross I wondered about the motivation for these hacks.
We all know they are sending traffic through their affiliate links to the gambling sites.
I did look at some of the posts.
They’re not brilliantly written and smack of AI or spun content, but they obviously work, or they wouldn’t be doing it.
If the hackers are so clever that they can do this to my site and, no doubt, hundreds of others, why aren’t they building their own sites for their content?
I didn’t follow any of their links; perhaps I should have done so.
I suspect that they are not sending people directly to the gambling sites but via a bridge page of some sort.
I doubt they are collecting email addresses along the way, but they could be.
They’re leaching my visitors and hijacking them to their sites.
All of their activities must be automated because the time it would take to hack a site, upload thousands of pages, and create thousands of users would be enormous.
None of the added users had any access above subscriber, so they’ve also got a nice little hack that allows them to make posts without having the relevant access level.
Unfortunately, they added too much content, and the site crashed.
I received a notification and was alerted to the problem.
However, the takeaway from this is that lots of content works.
You may not get more than a trickle of visitors from each page, but when you have 10,000 pages per hacked site, one visitor a month from each page across dozens of hacked sites gives you massive traffic.
You can do the same, not by hacking sites, of course, but by using legitimate Web 2.0 sites and lots of content.
You can post the same content on multiple sites because you’re not looking for ranking points, just leaching some visitors from highly trafficked websites.
Full automation is not a good thing, but partial automation is an excellent way to leverage your web properties.
That’s why I like this platform: https://go.wm-tips.com/llhome. For a very reasonable $20 monthly, you can attract visitors to your ads and drive them to places that make you money.
Or, if you’re strapped for cash, you can leverage the free account by clicking a few ads.
There’s nothing stopping you from driving traffic from other sources to these same ads.
Wow! That’s in the last three years. That explains why they’ve upped the requirements for you to begin receiving ad revenue from them. They get a benefit from your first video, but you don’t. However, you can benefit from the very first video in your new channel when you put an affiliate link in the description or first comment.

Are you aware that you can place one link to a landing page with multiple links on it?
Or that your link could be to a rotator so you can test different products against your video?
Both methods allow you to determine which products people are more likely to buy and, therefore, which ones you should concentrate on.
That’s what testing is for.
The platform that best enables you to test multiple links on a single page and set up a rotator is LeadsLeap.
You can do all of that with a free account, so there’s no excuse.
Making videos for YouTube is also easy.
People have been making videos with AI for over ten years without problems, but you should be warned that those videos do need to be of a reasonable quality.
If you throw up a heap of crappy videos, you will not get good results.
The best videos are the ones that use the one problem, one solution format.
Use AI for sure to generate multiple solutions to a single problem and multiple titles and descriptions for that problem.
Then, create a video for each title and upload them.
Use Canva to create a thumbnail for you, and you’re good to go.
No, you won’t make much with your first video, but you might begin getting traction after the first ten.
One thing we’ve learned from this trip is that when we go on the big trip to Queensland in June, we’ll be travelling alone. This last trip was with a friend who was going to be going with us on the long trip, but I don’t think I could have lasted without dumping her somewhere.

This last trip was with a friend who was going to be going with us on the long trip, but I don’t think I could have lasted without dumping her somewhere.
Unfortunately, she won’t be able to go with us as she’s going to the UK instead.
::phew::
I know that sounds mean and nasty, but I wouldn’t have been able to remain cool for that length of time.
I did manage for the last 2 weeks, but it got harder every day.
Some people you can handle being around for short periods, some for longer periods, and some for a lifetime.
Of course, there are some you can’t handle being around at all.
This lady is one of those short-period people.
She drinks too much, gets fixated on telling others what they should do, wanders off without letting us know where she’s going or for how long, and talks constantly.
She’s one of those people who cannot handle silence.
That means she says what’s in her head.
One of those empty vessels.
I call it rattling.
Anyway, we both thought we might have dodged a bullet when she announced that she was off to the UK for her brother’s 70th birthday and 50th wedding anniversary.
…but yesterday, it was me who screwed up. The correct link was in the last email, but it wasn’t hyperlinked. That means that the smart ones amongst you know to copy the text and paste it into the URL field in your browser. You did that, didn’t you?
You’ll discover the simple way to make AI your best buddy and turn boring, unsellable PLR into products that people will crawl over broken glass to get.
OK, maybe not crawl.
Maybe not even broken glass.
But they will be whipping out their credit cards faster than Billy the Kid can draw to buy your latest product.
At least it’s starting here. No one knows how this is going to play out. I suspect that the people who make out like bank robbers will be the ones who operate in the background. Mostly, no one will even know who they are, but they’ll quietly accumulate assets and income by

Mostly, no one will even know who they are, but they’ll quietly accumulate assets and income by using AI tools in a smart way.
Sure, we all know the big companies are going to make a killing with this new tech, but they’ll also often fail in their hurry to be “first to market.”
We’ve already seen that with the ugly stuff going on with Gemini and Bard.
The big tech companies are trying very hard to make their tools super woke, but the hackers are having none of that.
There are some brilliant prompts that circumvent the wokeness in highly entertaining ways.
None of those will make the biggest behind-the-scenes splash, though.
I read recently that the first billion-dollar company that is run by one person will be founded within the next two years if it isn’t already in the works.
There are already many million and multi-million-dollar companies run by a single person.
It does take planning and consistency, but it’s not difficult to do.
I suspect that that first billion-dollar company will be utilising AI heavily.
When you use AI tools with the ideas here, burtm10.systeme.io/apocalypse, you can easily build a comfortable life without having to create anything at all.
When you build your audience and traffic on a third-party platform, you can lose it all overnight with no recourse. I have seen this happen repeatedly over the years I’ve been online. People making tens of thousands a month suddenly have their accounts closed, and
Some people will tell you that the answer is segmentation. Ramit Sethi says that’s a load of codswallop. Daniel Throssell agrees with him after testing with his email subscribers. Tony Shepherd has been doing it successfully for years. Funnily enough I have been doing the same thing for years as well.
The answer is a definite maybe. If they were all from a particular niche and your page was relevant to that niche, the chances are that you would make a lot of sales. If your page was not relevant to those niche visitors, the odds are against you. You still might make a few sales, but not many.

You still might make a few sales, but not many.
You might have gathered from the above that it’s not the number of visitors that counts, but the quality of those visitors and the relevance of your page to them.
There is a way to gather large numbers of visitors to your page who are related to your niche and let them self-filter to more relevant pages where you’ll have better conversions.
Not only that, but you can run links from your generic page to multiple specific pages that can make you money.
Ranking low-competition non-specific pages is relatively easy because most marketers want to fight for the money keywords.
Not you because you’re smarter than that.
Your money keywords are the links inside your long-form blog post that are on the generic page.
You’ll know how to do that if you watched the video in yesterday’s email.
This is something that anyone can do, and you can make money almost as fast. No, you don’t need AI to do this, but it will help. I’m not going to tell you about it because Marcus can do it so much better. https://www.youtube.com/live/Nyhcy2cOfXc?si=IMCqwaEq7H63nrD5
With most methods, paid tools can offer enhanced performance and speed, but if you’re not in a position to invest in those tools, rest assured, there are free tools that can still get the job done effectively.
Not as well, but free always has its own limitations.
