Acme People Search Works – Simple Business Runs Itself
Posted by Barry Livingstone in Careers, Earn $300 a Day Online on December 3rd, 2009
All You Have to Do Is Learn to Promote Your Site
I Have Been Pleased with the People Search Business - See What It's About
Acme People Search Works
I really did not think I would be here when I signed up for the people search website earlier this year but here I am, nearly a year later and the site is still going, making a couple of dollars here and there and paying for itself while I do other things. One of these days maybe I’ll tally the stats up and figure out how I did over the year but given the cost of the whole kit and kabootle was all of ~$120 I know I have broken even and then some.
I have been able to spend a few dollars on training materials and software, have dabbled a little using Adwords and Yahoo Search Marketing and otherwise been able to put a few dollars toward my online education rather than just sit idle doing nothing for myself.
A Year Ago I Was Extremely Angry at Work
You’ve probably heard a story like this before, and mine was no different from the oldest workplace political hack jobs in the book. My boss had bullied me at work, then her boss and HR did the same, then my boss topped it off by giving me an unfavorable performance review for my troubles. All of this happened in the worst job market since the Great Depression. Ever had something like this happen to you?
I Made a New Year’s Resolution – Find Another Source of Income – NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES
I was so angry and hurt and depressed at New Year’s last year that I resolved to find another way to make money no matter what it took with the hopes that someday, somehow I would be able to walk out of my job, say, “Saionara!” to the *bleeps* that hurt me and move on with my head held high, my dignity intact, and my attitude resolved that NO ONE was ever going to treat me that way again.
To that end I have spent many hours this year learning everything I could about internet marketing. I joined wealthy affiliate. I got to know Jennifer Ledbetter. I partnered with Tissa Godavitarne. I read every last free e-book and e-course I could find on web promotion. I bought a subscription to an awesome piece of web marketing software.
Then I Began Writing. And Writing. And Writing…
Anger can be a powerful (however slightly unhealthy) motivator, and believe me I was angry. I wrote in the morning before I went to work. I wrote when I got home from work. I wrote while I did laundry. I wrote in the bathroom. I wrote on weekends. I wrote on vacation, and I wrote on holidays. I thought about writing while falling asleep, in the car, or any other time my hands weren’t free to type.
Don't Listen to the Negativism of Others - Hard Work Pays Off
And So Here I Am, One Year Later…
…and I’ll be damned if this stupid little people search business isn’t still making a few bucks for me – enough to pay for the expenses of a software license, hosting, new ventures, and other related subscription services. How can I not be happy with the way things have turned out?
Am I going to walk off the job tomorrow or a month from now? Nope. But do I wake up each day with energy and a feeling of hope and determination that better times are ahead and those a-holes at work can never hurt me again? Oh yeah I do.
And I am VERY Thankful.

Reputable Affiliate Programs That Pay Cash and Offer Multi-Levels
Posted by Barry Livingstone in Earn $300 a Day Online on July 12th, 2009
There are plenty of affiliate programs and multi-level marketing programs out there that promise results and tools and support, but when do they actually deliver anything specific for YOU? I don’t know about you, but any program that immediately begins to confuse you with terms like ‘points this’ and ‘bonus point that’ – just run.
Why Don’t These Multi-Level Marketing Programs Just Pay Cash?
Earnings from affiliate programs need to be paid and scored in the only numeric that matters – CASH. What do you care about points? Is this a game? Do you win a prize at the end? When the game is over do you get a cookie? Where I come from people that work and do promotion services get paid commissions for sales or for clicks or for leads… in CASH.

Improving Google Page Rank – How to Catch Google’s Eye
Posted by Barry Livingstone in Earn $300 a Day Online on June 22nd, 2009
The business of internet marketing is all about improving Google page rank. Knowing how to improve Google Page Rank is critically important to getting low cost (read: zero cost) organic search results advertising. Inevitably this means hours of article writing, keyword researching, and tracking (hopefully positive) results.
I’ve already written a post on how to improve Google page rank covering which tools I use, but I’m sure more of you are wondering how the heck to actually *use* them in a coordinated strategy to both get Google to *like* your pages, and then how to *know* when Google has decided your pages are good for the keywords you target. How do you *know* when you’ve done it right? Here is a piece written about what the search engine optimization tools do for me together. In all fairness, I think far and away the most over-looked tool is WebComp Analyst. It can tell you what pages rank for your keywords, how many pages are competing, and the ‘Google strength’ (backlinks and PageRank) of each page.
For my money it all comes down to Edward Deming. His Deming Method of Continuous Improvement is what made the Japanese manufacturing industry tops in the world (we had first dibs on Deming but fat-cat exectives told him to go pound sand… that’s why all the labels on entire segments of high tech goods these days are Japanese brands). To paraphrase Deming’s Method, there are four phases: PLAN-DO-CHECK-ACT
- Plan – What are you going to do? What opportunities are out there? Who are your competitors? What are your strengths and resources? What are your weaknesses & needs? Do you have the ability to gather (beg, borrow, buy) those resources you don’t have in a cost competitive manner? How long will your resources last without success?
- Do – Execute your plan. Select keywords and products. Write Articles and Ads. Make Web Pages. Setup statistics tracking, Google alerts and the like.
- Check – Revisit your stats. Are you getting the results you expected? What other results are you getting? Are you not getting results at all? Why or why not? Analyze and understand ALL the data you have.
- Act – Based on your results from the Check phase, what items need to be addressed? Did you select bad keywords? Are there superior offerings (products, campaigns, articles, postings) to yours? Return to the Plan phase and make new plans based on the results and analysis from the previous effort.
America really screwed itself when it sent Deming to Japan to help them re-build their manufacturing industry, but you don’t have to let that get in the way of your Internet Marketing campaign. The Deming method, when you have the right competitive tools and knowledge for improving Google page rank can help you beat your competition and carve out your own niche.
Pagerank How to Guides – Search Engine Results Domination
Posted by Barry Livingstone in Product Reviews on June 8th, 2009
Pagerank how to guides are a dime a dozen on the web, and I don’t intend for one minute to waste your time telling you about some ebook I’ve written on the topic. Waste-of-time. What I will do on the other hand is tell you that I am doing well in my efforts to dominate search engine results for targeted keywords and I am willing to tell you exactly which tools I am using to do it.
If you are anything like me you’ve spent a considerable amount of time working for other people who neither appreciate you nor fully compensate you for your contributions. As a result you’ve taken up internet marketing as a way to replace or enhance your income so you can live the lifestyle of your dreams. If you’re coming to this page then you’ve either tried article marketing and are looking for guidance, or you’ve tried PPC advertising and gotten your wallet emptied and you’re looking for a new direction. In either case, you’re in the right place.
I have had a great deal of success following the Deming method (Plan-Do-Check-Act) of continuous improvement in developing strategies to dominate search engine results. In the posts and articles below you will see each and every piece of software I use and a description of why I find it useful. I do have to say the three most powerful tools are One Week Marketing (the Plan phase), SENuke (the Do phase), and WebComp Analyst (the Check phase).
In fairness I should disclose that One Week Marketing is one of the Pagerank How to Guides online. Having said that, I’d have no clue how to do what I do without it and its author, PotPieGirl.
I should add that part of the PLAN phase is a TESTING phase. I use USFreeAds (get the premium account – it’s well worth the $10/month – unlimited HTML ads) to throw shtuff on the wall quickly and see what sticks.
Writing as a Career Was Not How I Expected to Make Money Online
Posted by Barry Livingstone in Earn $300 a Day Online on April 22nd, 2009
I never thought writing would be much fun as a career when I was in high school, in fact I pretty much dreaded all my assignments that had anything to do with reading or writing. Now I try to write as much as I can and share as much as I can with friends and family on line, and I even have taken up writing as a career… in a roundabout way. It’s really not work when you’re having fun doing it… and I’m having a lot of fun and some success.
Writing as a career certainly didn’t start out as my goal when I began thinking about starting my own web business, but it quickly became apparent that the best way to learn the web promotion business without losing your shirt in PPC advertising would be to learn Bum Marketing techniques. What’s Bum Marketing? Bum Marketing is a philosophy where you pay as little as possible to generate revenue from internet customers. Notice I did not mention anything about getting traffic to your page or building a website. Those come later – only AFTER you’ve found a money making niche.
Most people do it the other way around (myself included). We always put the cart before the horse. I can’t tell you how many websites I’ve built, how many domains I’ve owned, how many hours and weeks I’ve spent programming websites (see my website masterpiece). In reality what the web is really thirsty for - is good content. After the mad scramble land grab for web real-estate people found that registering domains was expensive, and without traffic, extremely unprofitable. So all the great content websites that had been backed by venture capital disappeared one by one until only a few extremely well funded advertising sites remained. The largest of these was Google, which made the vast majority of it’s money acting as a middle man between web advertisers and web content providers.
Google understood early on that the key to sorting out all the sudden burst of activity was what they called relevance. Think just a few years back before the dot-com bubble burst. Do you remember what it was like to do a search in Yahoo? You’d get page after page of Spam websites and postings, because they did not know how to filter the results for relevancy. Yahoo may have been the first to get the search business, but ultimately Google dominated it because they punished websites with bad or Spam content. If you want to understand Google you have to understand what relevant content is and then post it to a forum, web page or other site where it gets monitored and reviewed.
That is how your content becomes relevant, and ultimately shows up in Google search results. So now I write as much relevant content as I can under the guidelines of One Week Marketing, spin it and post it to as many sites as possible using SEnuke and otherwise try to spend as little as possible to promote my pre-existing sites like my people search business and www.todosquepaso.com.
People Search Payment Threshold Reached | Google Page Rank Achieved
Posted by Barry Livingstone in Earn $300 a Day Online on April 19th, 2009
So I expert to be receiving my first payment from my people search biz program when the next payment cycle comes through. I’ve been continuing to build my business a little every day following the One Week Marketing program as laid out by my mentor. Each time I write an article or place a free ad I grow closer to my goal of ultimate freedom. I have to admit my domain hosting business is slow right now but that is because I am focusing on the areas which I’ve built previous momentum. I am also waiting for the upcoming special promotion my sponsor Tissa Godavitarne is preparing for the hosting business. His advertising campaigns are simply amazing and extremely successful. Once I took his recommendation and signed up for Wealthy Affiliate my own business began to show results. As I said, today I reached a payment threshold in one of my businesses, and I look forward to each of the other many businesses to pay off as my web presence grows. One of my articles has even received Google Page Rank! Who’d have thunk a podunk nobody like me could understand Google enough to earn page rank?
The Immense Knowledgebase that is Wealthy Affiliate
Posted by Barry Livingstone in Earn $300 a Day Online on April 10th, 2009
If you’re just starting out and trying to make money online and are not a member of Wealthy Affiliate you just have no idea how much wisdom you are missing out on.
I just had the pleasure of reading my mentor’s (PotPieGirl) 1000th post on Wealthy Affiliate and it completely reminded me of all the things I need to remember to do succeed – without expending any money initially.
I tell you it’s those lengthy posts on WA where the real meat on the bones is found. I woke this morning with renewed purpose and direction and have since gotten many campaigns back on the upswing.
People Search Business Works… And The Band Played On
Posted by Barry Livingstone in Earn $300 a Day Online on April 6th, 2009
So about a week ago I discontinued actively promoting my people search business, and yet today I continue… yes CONTINUE to gain subscribers. People are so hungry for good income solutions that they dig through mounds and mounds of search results to end up at my site and end up signing on to the people search business, without me paying a dime to google or anyone else to promote the business.
Any naysayers out there should take note: if you build it, they will come. Find a marketing angle, get to the point where you understand google, and then put up your business shingle and without fail the people will come knocking on your door looking for answers. The people search business is without a doubt viable, and in fact with even just a modest effort provides a bounty of opportunity whether you actively pursue it or not. I had completely halted all active advertising of the people search business and yet they STILL come knocking.
Whether you get into the business and take advantage of the people search business, or the background checks, or the domain hosting business you simply can’t help but find some success in it. It is a fundamental truth that Americans want to be in control of their own destiny. It’s true whether you’re sick of your abusive boss, or you’ve just been laid off, or your hours have been cut. You want control, and you deserve control. Here’s the rub… you’re not alone. All you have to do is get your shingle and promote your business first, and you’ll be on your way… sometimes inspite of yourself.
To your Success,
Barry
