Are you reading this because you are tired of working for the “man”, never seeing your kids until late at night, juggling bills and worrying about where the next car repayment is coming from? Would you like to be younger, sexier, attract fast cars and pretty women? Well I have the answer for you – but you have to ACT NOW!
Sorry – thought that might get your attention! Look lets me honest here – I make money from this blog and the most successful marketing I do is for the The Keyword Academy. Why is it successful ? Well I manage to con people into signing up for the $1 free trial by offering to refund their dollar if they don’t like it – and then people find its a great program and they keep on paying the monthly membership for the site. I get a commission on those monthly subscriptions. All affiliates work the same Third Tribe Marketing, Scribe SEO – the lot. The difference is that most affiliates people cancel after a few months – which is crap for your passive online income!
You see people who enrol in TKA stay enrolled for months and months and months. Long past the initial keyword video course – much longer than can be justified just on a montly webinar or two – so why is the Keyword Academy membership so “sticky”? They stay enrolled quite simply because they consider themselves to be getting value for money – and those that are doing the work are getting far more actual real measurable value from the program than the $33/month they pay for it.
Long Term Value of The Keyword Academy
Well I don’t know about the others who are long-time members of TKA – but I’d welcome your comments below. But my reasons for staying has come down to:
- their guest posting system which allows me to easily get links for my sites;
- their guest posting system which allows me to receive free unique content to some of my sites;
- their niche refinary tool which allows me to easily analyse keyword income potential and competition;
- the forum allows me to compare results and react to changes in the Google world – more heads are definitely better than one sometimes.
Cost to Start a Passive Income Business Using The Keyword Academy
So what are the chances of making money actually using the TKA “system”?. What will it cost you to start a niche site using the TKA system?
Enrol in TKA – cost $1 free
Research keywords using TKA tools – free
Buy a domain at Godaddy.com (use the code emma30 to get 30% off dot coms) $8.99
Buy Hosting – I still recommend Hostgator (around $7/month for unlimited domain hosting)
Setup WordPress (free) as recommended on TKA and start writing keyword focussed articles for your site. (5 to 10 say). (BTW if this scares you the TKA guys will help you set up the first site as well).
Write and submit an article a day to the TKA guest posting system continue for 3/4 months
In around 5/6 months you should be ranking on page 1 and getting passive income from Adsense or whatever other approach you have taken to making money on the site.
Lets say the your site has the potential to make $50/month in Adsense.
If it takes you 6 months to rank in first place for your main keyword – that will have cost you:
Domain registration 50% x $7.99 = $4
Hosting: $7 x 6 months = $56
TKA $1 plus 5x$33 = $166
Total costs: $226
Total revenue – if you follow the TKA model you should be looking at least $50/month from your site – so it will take less than 5 month’s earnings to cover the sunk costs.
The figures for your second and subsequent sites are even better. For you next site:
Domain 50% x $7.99 = $4
Hosting – paid already
TKA – paid already
Total costs (per 6 months ) – $4 – around the cost of cake and a coffee in my part of the world – your mileage may vary.
So After a Year Your Business May Look Like
If you start 10 sites and after 12 months you are earning $50/site the figures are:
Revenue: 10 x $50 x 12 = $6000
Less domain registration 10 x $7.99 = $79
Less Hosting 12 months x $7 = $84
Less TKA membership 11 months x $33 = $363
Profit: $5390
Time commitment:
- initial site setup -takes me about an hour – it will take you longer the first time
- then an ongoing requirement – write and post an article a day for each site: 10x 300 words about 2.5 hours a day at my fairly rapid typing speed – probably just time you spend watching rubbish on TV now.
You don’t have to do this forever for a site – only until its solidly in the top position – that may take 6 months, more or less – this is a business not a job – its not guaranteed – but you’d have to agree there is a fair margin of error in the above figures..
Could You Use an Extra $5000 ?
It took me over 2 years to learn the stuff I just wrote in this post. Before TKA the information was scattered. Before the guest posting system in TKA it was a considerable struggle to find places to post backlinks. There was always the doubt that what you were doing may or may not work. This works – its not exciting or sexy or even very interesting, but it will earn you money. And you know what? I have sites ranking at #1 for which I haven’t touched in months and months, which I haven’t built a link for in months. They still earn me the same amount of money …
I could rave on about how TKA has changed my life – its true – but frankly it would sound too much like one of those cheesy sales letters that I hate! Frankly you just read over 900 words about making money online – you obviously have some interest. The real question is are you ready to stop dreaming and take some action? Dreaming is great – but it won’t make you money.
So click the bloody affiliate link NOW and signup – and stop dreaming and reading about making money online and actually <<<<make some money>>>>> (that’s the link!)!
