Hi guys, for years, I've been trying to work my way online but as you know a job holds one back. About 2 yrs ago, I was introduced into a online system that creates websites. You just buy a domain name, input all the relevant keyword and it'll post articles, videos and ads related to your keyword. Only difference is, the domain name you're buying should be old or existing (those that people probably forgot to renew), and has traffic already.
I bought a couple of domains, around 30, and the tool went to work on its own. Weekly, we were advised to create our own report and post it in our sites so that our rank in searches would increase (I couldn't keep writing on my own so I hired ghost writers - got a good deal like $1 for an original article).
The tool costs around $3000 (yes, before I was one of those with "Get-rich-easy" mentality and wanted the easy way to get it so I placed it on credit), though there were sites that actually produces $5-$10 a month of income with ads but because I lack the funds, I couldn't continue managing all the sites. Every year, about 10 sites I didn't renew and in 2 yrs only 5 sites remained (those that are profitable). Still if I do the math, yearly renewal of the domain, hiring ghost writers and payment of the debt eats much of my funds.
After 2 yrs, I decided to give-up all the sites and decided to just keep working on my job. Question is, if I do have the funds, would I have been successful? Or is there something that I could have done differently to make it successful (wanted to learn from my mistakes)?
Thank you all.
