AdSense Profit Tips - 12 Month Coaching Program Launches Today

It seems like you really believe in these coaching programs. It is going to have to work pretty well to make the revenue to cover the costs of doing both those coaching programs! Unless you plan on making 100 $30 sites.

I wish I could afford even the silver one, this sounds great, but for now looks like I’m relying on the free info till I can get something going for extra cash.

Of course one never knows the value of a program like this until you get into it, but frankly, I don’t see alot of value added to what is easily available for free. And the biggest stumbling block to any of these coaching programs is finding the time to really work them … you seem very organized, so I certainly hope you cna get value from two at a time … i certainly would just flounder, I fear.

Just my 2 cents that 12 months is a long time to be coached on Adsense? but wish you a fruitful learning experience. I have also joined a group in Malaysia to learn about internet marketing (internet millionaires club Malaysia) and paying USD12.90 a month as a Silver Member. The subjects covered are of variety though.

The pricing seems kind of steep, but I guess everyone needs to make money.

Good on you, these programs can be good because they will keep you focussed and on track over the 12 months.

I’ll look forward to your review. Personally, I’ve been burned too many times by programs promising to reveal “secrets.” I won’t buy anything if I can’t find reviews by honest bloggers, which of course, you are.

Keep us posted.

Rick’s last blog post..Ed Dale’s 30 Day Challenge - Day 3

@Tom, I have an advantage there in that I can also earn revenue as an affiliate which offsets the cost of the course itself. However, what this course promises is that it can take the AdSense revenue to the next level, so I’m hoping that I won’t have to build 100 $30 sites and can instead build one site that earns a lot more.

@Kenda, a year seems like a long time but broken down into weekly lessons thats 52 things. To be honest I currently know very little about AdSense so I don’t know how much there is to say about it. But I’m sure Codrut must have all his content planned out in advance or he would lose customers because of course you can cancel at any time.

@Steve, yeah that’s what I’m hoping with all 4 membership sites I now belong to!

@Rick, yup I plan to discuss how the course is going periodically as I work through it.

dang it, why do these things have to cost so much?

@Lexi, cost is relative. No matter what the price, there will be some people who feel it is too high and others who feel it is cheaply priced. It’s all about your own circumstances and your perception of the value that it offers.

Hi Caroline

I have been on your blog for very long but I read this post and some of the replies and my heart goes out to you.

These membership sites are the current fad for folks determined to empty your wallet. Sorry if that sounds harsh but they are.

There are certain tricks that work for a time, e-books, seminars,coaching programs…..you probably saw them all. The current one is memberships sites.

These guys are ruthless, dishonest and mercenary. You are their target and the despise you. They see would be marketers as fish in a barrel and they all invite their bunch of buddies around to shoot all the fish they can get.

You see, “Honesty and Sincerity”

Once you can fake these you have got it made.

A bit of Photoshop on results pages doesn’t go amiss either!

I would suggest that you try and go cold turkey on paid help for a while and see how much you can learn from folks who don’t take your money.

SEO2020.com all sorts of stuff.

You are using a major piece of free stuff, WORDPRESS. Lear about some others like Joomla and teach yourself to build multiple big sites on which you can then hang sources of revenue.

Read the classic marketing books recommended by Ken McCarty of TheSystemSeminar fame they should cost 5-10 bucks on Amazon.

And the biggest recommendation I can possibly give you is read the sales letters by these guys and then throw away the product because they will have put more effort into that one page sales letter than they will the product. Cross out the name of their product and replace it with your own and tidy it up a bit Voila! You will get ALL the benefit at none of the cost.

There are no words to express just how cynical IM hype is.

None.

PM me if you want a peek at any stuff that I may have about different topics, you are welcome to share at no cost.

@Nitmix, while there certainly are ruthless marketers out there I don’t think it is fair for you to judge when you have no experience of the program being offered. Codrut was kind enough to offer me a free place in the program and he knows full well that I will be following along and blogging about it as I go. If the coaching program turns out to be rubbish then I’ll make that known and he knows that.

I have already spent a lot of time learning from free information and you know what - there’s just as much crap out there, more in fact! There is so much of it. At least when I pay for something it is concentrated information - I don’t have to filter out all the extra noise. So far I am very happy with the paid programs that I pay for, and I’ll judge this one when I am working through it.

Hey Caroline, I am guessing you are probably Uk based being online at the same time as me. You are 100% right about the levels of crap in both the paid and unpaid sectors and also no, it isn’t “fair” to pre-judge another program. But business isn’t fair, it is ruthless nasty and exploitative. That is the cautionary point I was making.

I like the sound of your deal with Codrut, that is a good place to make a judgement from.

I had actually posted somewhere else on your blog about some basics of slpit testing which is relevant to this one too. Doing
well at Adsense is a matter of test, test, and test again! May even be able to rustle up a pdf on that one.

I wish you all the luck and success in the world and I know where you are now believe me! I started back in 1997 when it took me 3 days to figure out how to find an ftp program! I have bought stuff that was great and even more stuff that is sitting on hard drives gathering dust. It seemed like the only way to learn at the time.

I have made money from ppc, adsense,affiliates and selling my own stuff. I have about 50 sites up and over a million pages in google and the scars to show for it and I have never made a penny out of selling know-how to anyone, I guess it just jabs my protective streak when I see someone in the same place I started way back! Perhaps you can get a dialogue going amongst your readers to share what really has worked for them in terms of courses or mentorships? Folks can be very generous with their experiences.

regards

@Nitmix, Yes I am in the UK. I imagine everyone in this game is going to get burned to some degree by buying products that don’t live up to their promise but I don’t think that will ever change - it’s just a fact of life in business, online or offline.

True, true!

Just read your post on Feb 2008 figures! Way to go girl!

Now just rinse and repeat.
